Ditto. I don't want to sound like I'm bragging. I used to finance vehicles in my younger years, but the last 20 years has been cash only. If I can't afford to pay cash, I won't buy it. I drove rusted out Escorts and Cavaliers for many years to get ahead of the game while the guys I worked with drove new Z-71 pee-cup trucks they could barely afford the monthly payment.

i paid mine off last august. i had a 7 year loan and paid it off in 4. I dont have any mods planned, but I am starting to look into things (headers, exhaust, CAI). I'm still trying to pay off student loans (should be 5 more years) and slowly saving up a down payment for a house.

I wish I could have paid in full but I load half or so up front. I took a 6 year loan and will be done in 3 years 10 months. I plan on keeping the car it only has 19,000 miles on it so it should have plenty of life left. I can't wait to not have a payment though.

I will not make payments on a car again. It's just not worth it. Even if I had to go back and buy my Camaro again, I'd save up and pay cash. OP, I paid mine off almost a year and a half ago and it was the best thing I ever did! Once the car was paid for I ripped out and replaced the entire exhaust out, ported the throttle body, and I'm getting it tuned in two weeks. With no more money going to the bank I now have money for mods. Up eventually...supercharger and suspension mods.

Paid cash for mine, supercharged it, then borrowed money against it so I could remodel the house (it was cheaper than HELOC and using my own money), paid it off, then borrowed more money against it to buy a racecar trailer....so mine's been paid off 3 times already...all before it had 20,000 miles.

Gather I'm an odd man out. Money is so cheap right now I took a loan out for seven years @ 1.75%. Could pay it off but would rather have the money working for me instead of the bank.

Drop your $40k cash into a depreciating asset, or put $40k in the market, make a 4-6% return and earn a few grand every year while making payments on your car....what makes more sense? |
