Thank you Khoa, this couldn't have come at better time, I'm just starting to look for a loan. I see you have a comment about about Federal Choice Credit union
Now I can't qualify for a membership, but I see you say you can do the 2.49% rate without a membership? Can you (or anyone) tell me how that works? I just apply online without a membership and that's it?
Thanks in advance!

1.49% if you're a new member (must be in DC-Metro Area) but you can get their regular rate w/o membership

Congrats, and thanks for sharing your success!
Bethpage looks easy to qualify, I may have to add it.
Instead of applying for membership first, I think what was meant was to just apply directly to the loan to skip the membership phase(but you still need to qualify). Let us know how it goes regardless so we can share your experience with others!
Just added Excel FCU with great rates @ 2.29% for 84 months Excel Federal Credit Union - Best Loan Rates in Atlanta
It looks easy, they have an "Unspecified" category in the eligibility requirements, can you give it a try and let me know? If you can, apply directly for the loan and skip the membership.

Just added ActorsFCU -- has amazing rates: Auto Loans - Actors FCU + there's an additional .25% reduction if you autodebit.
Might have significant loops though:
May require 10% of loan in a savings account, must open savings first, be a member of a listed organization, auto debit has .25% off basic rate, found free to join org: Songwriters Guild of America
Eligibility link: Who We Are - Actors FCU
Your 48 month loan could be 1.34% after auto debit

My Credit Union Fairwinds Credit Union in Central Florida blew away all other rates including Tesla, when I purchased my MS.
Please add them to your list.
Let's steer you in the right direction.
Note the 36 month special at .89%

Hi RNateG,
I called Aspire FCU a few mins back and the person answering the call had no idea about the green car discount.
I'm not seeing this discount mentioned anywhere on their website either.
Do you have some more info that i can use to gt this rate discount?
Thanks,
Iroh.
How did you get the match with LS? What information did you need to provide from SDMCU? I got approved for 2.49% from SDMCU but only have screenshots from the website saying I was approved and what the application terms were (amount and duration), not the rate. I am also approved with LS, but there is no phone number and I haven't received any answers to my emails to LS.
I got matched yesterday and my delivery is scheduled for the day after tomorrow, so I'm rushing through things.
Already replied to your PM. So the message on their website doesn't have the rate? My approval was in the form of a message on their website. I created a PDF of that message, and sent it to LS. The only way you're going to get LS to match is if you have documentation of the approval that shows the length, amount and APR of the SDMCU rate.
LS's phone number is 866.635.1330. If you call them and tell them you want a match they will tell you to send in the documentation, and that may make things go quicker once they have it. But that documentation from SDMCU is key. It's the only golden ticket that will work.
I found a really old link about the green car discount (2011 though): Go Green to Get Green | Aspire Federal Credit Union
Note that the credit union has 2.5* on yelp and may have untrained staff according to reviews: Aspire Federal Credit Union - Clark, NJ

Do you have to become a member first (i.e. donate first) before applying? Or can you apply first?
I believe you'll have to donate first then apply the membership with proof of your donation.
Insight might not have as great of a rate. I started the application process since it was listed at only 2.15%, but on one of the first disclosures it said that the rates were effective as of June 15, 2018. So they probably went up since then. If you do apply through Insight, let us know the rate you get.
