Most loan approvals are good from 30 to 60 days assuming you were approved once and your situation doesn't change you should be able to get approved again if the car takes longer than that to get delivered.Wouldn't a lot of people run this risk if they go with a third party for financing? Correct me if I'm wrong but you're locked in to the $2500 when you configure and it takes 3-6 weeks for delivery which is where you make the final transaction. When getting approved for an auto loan though your rate is only locked in for 30 days, so if your delivery takes 4+ weeks you might run in to some problems. My plan was to get financing a couple weeks before delivery in order to avoid this situation.
I wouldn't expect there to be that many people still visiting the forum if they have been turned down for a loan and don't have much chance of getting the car any longer. Also, if they are still hanging around, I'd be surprised that any of them would want to air out their dirty laundry and subject themselves to the comments like: "Well you should never have applied if you couldn't afford it", or the "If you need to apply for a loan you shouldn't be buying it", or even the "You must not have complete control of your finances, you should get you stuff together before buying anything expensive", or the ever popular "My credit score 842, I didn't have any problems, why are you having issues? I must be much better than you".Still not a single person here really answered my question. I know there’s at least a couple on this forum who had trouble with getting funded but maybe too embarrassed/shy to come forward to share their experience
