How much do you still owe on your FI car??

and did you put the FI system on credit, or pay cash? I'm trying to figure out what other people are doing. If you don't want to say I understand,

If you don't want to say I understand, but It will help others..

I bought my 2010 brand new with a trade-in, that I lost money on, 2007 RANGE ROVER, Piece of Garbage, but super clean ride...

Bought for 42 out the door after trade, owe 34k.

Bought my G in 08 with 10k down. Today I still owe about 15k.

Paid all cash for both STILLEN SC and GTM SC plus all the other mods I have done to my car. Absolutely no credit cards!

Also, not trying to flash or anything like that. That's just how I would like to go about modding.

Took out a 34k loan for the car. I owe roughly 22k. Should be at the halfway point in April. That makes 2 years of payment and ahead of schedule. Used mostly cash/debit card to pay for my TT build. Used a CC to pay the rest of my invoice, but had the cash to pay it off right away.

Maybe I should have paid the car off and then saved for my build........oh well!

Bought the car for 34 but owe 23 on it (only had 1200miles on it)...used the turbo money to keep the payment down (7000)....put the turbo on cc but of $12,000 I spent on it I only owe $4000 on the card (system went on in sept.). Hey paying cash for everything is never a good idea. Having credit is the only way you get things for cheap, sucks but fact of life. Just make sure if you do go credit you can afford the extra payments to get payed off quick or the money you thought it would cost will double if not triple quickly. Learned that one when I was younger the hard way.

Paid cash for the car and SC kit. Then again, single 22yr old with a job and not much stuff to pay for if that makes any difference.

Shuffled a bit of house downpayment to quickly pay off the FI stuff. House build starts soon, so it'll be roughly May at the earliest so I can continue saving.

Car payments? Less than $11k to go.

Back to single life. Therefore, no engagement or wedding this year... so I'm pretty sure I can handle it haha.
