Buying your first car is certainly an exciting milestone in your life. As a first-time car buyer, you probably have a little trepidation and a lot of questions as well. Clark Knapp Honda outlines the perks of our first-time car buyer program and how to qualify.

Honda First-Time Car Buyer Program

The first-time car buyer program is an incentive created by Honda for first-time buyers interested in purchasing a Honda car, SUV, or truck. We know that many first-time buyers haven’t established great credit yet, so this program can help. You can shop with confidence and avoid the pitfalls that typically come with little or bad credit, such as a high interest rate or a lack of loan offers.

Program Benefits

The program is designed for buyers with a limited credit history. Its biggest perk, arguably, is that you won’t be dragged down if your credit is a concern. You also get a $500 bonus as an added benefit, which gives you a little extra breathing room when you shop.

How to Qualify

To take advantage of the first-time car buyer program benefits, you will have to qualify for Honda financing. You also need to meet the following criteria:

  • Must have graduated college within the past two years (or will graduate in the next six months)
  • Must make a down payment of at least five percent (of the total purchase price)
  • Must provide proof of employment (with an income that will cover your monthly payments)
