Is a 16% APR on a used 2018 Honda Accord too high if my credit score is 675?

"I want to purchase a 2018 Honda Accord. When I went to the dealership, they ran my credit and offered me a five-year, 16% APR loan.

Is 16% APR too high if my credit score is 675?"

“Although your credit score isn’t stellar, 16% seems a bit high for that car loan, especially for 60 months.
If you only went to the financing department at the dealership, then that’s a mistake. You should always shop around to find the best rate, just as you would with
car insurance
.
Try credit unions first, as well as local, regional, and national banks. You should be able to find something for your Honda Accord at a much lower rate than 16%.”
