Rep Power: 0 um..zero payments, zero down...you figure out why zero sounds so good to a poor college student. 
doesn't take a genius. she figures by the time she graduates and gets a job (next jan) , she'll be ready to make payments.

Rep Power: 0 Intrest Builds that whole year so When you do pay ayear later youhave to pay all that built up intrest causing a high monthly payment. plus to get that you have to Have friggin GOOD credit not no credit just because your young doesnt count you must have already built GOOD credit.

Here's something to think about and why the zero down zero payments for a year is horrible. You are STUCK with that car until it's paid off. why?
Let's say you get the car and make no payments for a year. When you DO start making payments, you now owe say $25,000 on a car that has 1 year of depreciation on it... meaning you owe 25 grand on a car worth only 18 or 19 grand. So you're already at least 6 grand in the hole.
It means you CANT get out of that thing without taking a huge financial hit, or waiting til you pay it off.

Rep Power: 374 I looked into that about a year ago. I was looking at a new eclipse. First off it is a on a buy only. And it is for 36 months. They quoted me after the first year of no payments, I had 36 months to pay off the car. After they figured my down payment of $5000 in the deal, my payments where going to be $650 a month for 36 months. So as you can tell with me owning a civic. I didn't do the deal.
