Q. How does Car City Financial compute daily interest?
For Simple Interest Contracts, we compute daily interest (e.g. per diem) as follows:
(Principle Balance x Contract Interest Rate “APR”) / 365 = Daily Interest
Example: ($10,000 x 18%) / 365 = $4.93. This is the daily interest amount, or the per diem.
Q. Can I refinance?
We do not currently offer refinancing options
Q. Can I request to have monthly due date changed?

This depends on how you make your final payment. If paid off with cash or certified funds (cashiers/official check from bank) we will release our lien on the vehicle title immediately after we receive final payment.

We will send you lien release documentation by US mail to the to the address we have on file, unless you otherwise instruct.
