A car down payment is the amount of money or the trade-in value of your current car required by your lender before a loan is issued.
One great thing about buying a new car is that maintenance and repair costs tend to be low for a while, as the Grand Am example above shows. The down side is that new car payments are high. Imagine that you buy a new car for $25,000 and finance it to pay it off over 5 1/2 years, which is a standard time frame.
