Hey guys,let's take a poll on how many plan to pay cash for our new Camaro!
I for one am planning to pay in cold hard cash.I don't want to take any chances if the economy takes a sh$$.Nobody is going to get my car if we end up in a depression.

Anything paid for over 10K in cash gets reported to the COPs... Well, that's what I heard.

Yea if it wasn't for this depolyment I doubt I could have waited/saved up this much down.

It's always best to pay in cash if you can; the more you put down the less interest you have to pay. Of course, I don't know many people (myself included) who can plunk down 35k.

I am leasing so I am only putting like 2k down. I don't really like keeping cars for too long because the new model comes out and then I want that one. Keep a car for about 5 years max.

I have worked since I was 16 with a goal to get out of debt and finally got clear at the age of 41 and I am almost 50 now. I have been putting back 1,500.00 a month since I heard about the Camaro. I ordered a 2SS/RS back in October and I should have enough to pay cash (cashiers check) for the car when it arrives in 2009.

BBfan24 · 12-17-2008, 05:53 AM

if i had the cash i would do it. i'm saving as much as can per month to make my monthly payments as affordable and quick as possible when i finally get my car

playhard67 · 12-17-2008, 06:24 AM

$15K down. Should keep the monthly payments at a reasonable level.

djm96z28 · 12-17-2008, 06:42 AM

If I was in the market for a new Camaro, I'd pay the cash. I did so when I bought my Z28 new. Just wrote a check to the dealer, they handed over the keys and it was all mine.

VenomZ302 · 12-17-2008, 06:58 AM

I hope to get as much as possible for my '07 G35S (either privately sold or traded in) and then do everything I can to pay for the remainder with cash.

$15.000 down
