Can I get an auto loan with bad credit if my wife co-signs?

I have a credit score of 555 and my wife has a very good credit score. I make over $70K per year and now I need a new car for my work. The last car I bought I paid for in cash because of my credit score. All of my credit issues happened in College 5-7 years ago but is still haunting me. If my wife's crediit score is over 720, and she co-signs do I get the interest rate based on her score or an average of both of ours? Any help is appreciated before I submit fo a loan application with my credit union.

Something doesn't make sense. If you have been a good payer for the past 5 years and you make $70 k, there is absolutely no reason for you to have a 555 FICO score. This would imply you have multiple accounts in collection, recent charge-offs, etc.

Have you or the car dealer run a credit score lately? Maybe your score is higher than you think.

If your wife's score is much higher than yours, having her as the primary borrower on the loan will help. Alternatively, you may want the car in her name only.

Basically, you will qualify for a loan with your wife as the co-signer. Thats good news. The intrest rate isn't going to be based soley on her credit you are on the loan to. Banks base intrest rates on risk you are are going to increase the risk for the bank therefore they are going to need to increase the rate to compensate for the added risk ( because ur a bustout, aka rat, welch, degenerate, a get me done, etc.....) I hope that helps you out ! BUST OUT !!!
