Loans

But I won't be earning more than 1200$ a month until August, and I need the car now - so I'm not eligible for financing yet. AlsoI have neither credit history, nor a cosigner...

I would buy 2nd hand, but it seems so risky... I would need to borrow around $8000 to be able to buy a new one (have the rest of the money) and I will be able to pay back. Do you know of any bank that is willing to lend to international students... in these circumstances (I know the chances are near minus infinity, but I had to ask...)

I would just feel more safe about investing my money in something that has a warranty... Plus, I don't know much about cars, and am an easily convinceable person, so I think I would get tricked into buying the wrong car... easily

P.S. I decided to get an old car anyway, since no matter what, I need a car this summer...

My first car was a used car. I did not know, well still does not know, a lot about cars. I just know how to start it, drive it, and that's about it lol. I bought my first car from a car dealer, so it came with a warranty even though it was a used one. Find a good/reputable dealer in your town, they'll be able to show you one or more cars that fit your budget. Be sure to shop around before making your purchase. Dont forget to look up your potential car's history. You can look it up on the net by entering the VIN (vehicle identification number). You need to pay a small fee for this service. It is a list of things that had happened to your potential car (accident, etc).

I am not sure how can you get a loan without a credit history/co-signer. So, I cant really give any suggestion about it..
