Hi A.,
I don't think you will have too much trouble getting financed. Car companies just want to sell so they will finance any way they can. I would also watch for car dealerships that will give you minimum $5000 for your trade. Dealerships run deals like that pretty often, but not everyday so maybe you want to spend a couple weeks watching for a deal like that.
But I would also encourage you to buy not quite new. I know the want to have a NEW car, but you lose so much money when you drive off the lot. You can save a lot getting a car just a year old, or with low miles. Have fun shopping!
Also check out Dave Ramsey www.daveramsey.com He gives good advice on how to best work with your money, and he is the one who says NEVER buy new. Actually, he doesn't say never. He says if you have over 1 million in the bank, then you can afford to waste the money on a new car. He also says never to get a fleece...I mean lease on a car.
