I'm shooting for 10,000, hopefully more though. Pending sale of my Grand Prix, bonus, tax return, etc... should be able to muster it up. Have about 1500 right now.

I hear cordless drills and 5 gallon buckets are popular nowadays too.

I'm shooting for 50%. I really don't like having much debt. At least with 50% down I'll be rightside up from the start.

Currently have about $9000 to put down. Another $5000 will come from my father if I can work the amount of overtime he specified as the condition of getting that money. (Needed to work like 240 hours OT. And have worked, if you include all holiday pays as well, 168.)
I should have another $1000 at least of my own money by the time I go to get it. So I'm expecting to have, at the very least, a $15,000 deposit. |

I have the money to pay for it in cash, but I'm young and want to build my credit up so I'll probably pay like 90% of it upfront and make small payments for 2 or 3 years. With my insurance rates I'm going to have I will need my money for it. It's going to be like buying 2 cars, but I think it's worth it since IMO Muscle Cars won't be around but for mabey another 10 years at most with Gas Prices and CAFE atleast not gas powered muscle cars.

I'll probably do the same, unless i can actually pay it off in cash...
hoping no more than 35K for a well equipped SS/RS. I don't really need leather seats or an automatic transmission, which should hopefully reduce the price some. Although some of the options like stripes/accessories will probably bring the price back up to 35K, so im still shooting for that. |
