Who actually bought their 370Z?

소녀시대 · 01-21-2010, 08:21 AM

Hi everyone! Just a question out of curiosity....and it isn't, in any way, suppose to offend anyone but did everyone here buy the Z with their own money? The reason im asking this is because $50,000 is a hefty sum of money to use on a car and im just curious who bought the Z with their own money. Paid all at once, or perhaps financing it? or maybe leasing it? Thank you!

100% my own money.... cash at the time of delivery (less $1k deposit).

first lesson i learned in business school was: how much you make is not as important as how much you spend.

if you control your expenses well, you would have $50k (or more) at the bank and other financial institutions

sure. Michael Jackson made millions but when he died he had unsettled debts. he spent more than he made.

people who paid cash for their 370z don't make as much as Michael Jackson but they manage their expenses better and have more disposable income.

@ sigpapa226: :P

@6MT: wow xD thats a lot of money!

@mick: ahh i see yeah that makes sense....i know a few people who spend more than they make and now they owe banks a few thousand dollars

@Tyrell Tyson: 75K?!

Nope, there really was a contest to win a 370z and he won.

소녀시대 · 01-21-2010, 01:07 PM

omg that is so cool!! you won the 370z?!?! T_T

how much more do you end up paying by financing it?

takayuki · 01-21-2010, 02:48 PM

paid cash here! Lots of overtime was put in.

BLUESLATE · 01-21-2010, 03:49 PM

I'm stunned by your username, 소녀시대. lmao

No, I don't have a Z, but I have a G that I bought in 07. I negotiated and got a price of 40k OTD which I financed 20k at first. In about 3 months, I realized that it is not worth to spend extra money on interest over the next 5 years, so I paid it off in full. Simple interest loan FTW.
