So, yea they worked oout the numbers and can get me to take it home for only $6 mre a month. That's AWESOME! BUT.. I called my husband to tell him I'm coming home with a new car and he FLIPPED! Even talking about divorce if I buy this car. Needless to say...I left the dealership with my Black one

I guess I no longer wear the pants.

I told the dealership to give me til Monday so I can try and work something out with the butt-head.

I'm really ticked at the way he was talking to me...... and especially since my BDAY is next week!

it's only $6 bucks more a month

...boy, your husband doesn't know what type of hell he''ll have o pay down the road!!!

Is this my Blue Z that saw in person

? haha

Good luck with the purchase. Life's short. If Monterey Blue is what you want, then go for it! After talking to you that day for half an hour, I realized you're one of those girl who gets what you want. So, I won't even talk you out of it!

I do want to say that Monterey blue is much easier to maintain compare to black. However, I do maintain my car. You saw my Z very shinny because I cleaned the day before. Much better than black but you still need to maintain it.

I feel sorry for your husband.

SophiaZ · 10-02-2010, 02:00 PM

^^whys that?!

Funny thing is.....his 30th bday is coming on Nov 1st....I was gonna throw him a surprise party with all his family and friends..not sure if I want to dish out that kind of money after all this crap that's going on. A pat on the back and a card will just have to make due

josh@z1 · 10-02-2010, 02:05 PM

maybe he is surprising you with the blue Z?

nuts4nissan09 · 10-02-2010, 02:14 PM

Hey, Sorry to hear about your deal getting slammed, but that's one of those things about being married-no big financial decisions w/out the consent of both. He shouldn't have brought up the D word (not cool), but I guess he was hurt that you didn't discuss it w/ him and include him in the decision. This is part of the reason I'm currently single. I'm selfish and like things my way or it's the highway. Maybe things will work out for you and the Blue Z will be yours. Either way you still have a sweet Z in your garage. Good luck.

Yeah because buying a car is anywhere comparable to a party

VCuomo · 10-02-2010, 02:24 PM

Ummm, Sophia, "only $6 more a month" isn't what's important - how much extra would you end up paying for this deal? How much longer is the loan period and at how much per month? You need to look at the real cost of the deal, not just the per month difference in payments.

Calm down and do the math, and you just might find out that your husband was doing the right thing. And you really shouldn't be making major financial decisions by yourself - how would you like it if your husband decided on his own to make a $30,000 decision without consulting you? Just sayin...

But, best wishes on this turning out well for both of you!

You're losing money no matter how you look at it.

seungklee · 10-02-2010, 04:02 PM

Sophia,

I understand how much you want the Monterey Blue color Z, but you already have nice car as it is. I don't think it will be a killer for you to just stick with your current car. I hope your situation gets worked out. Best wishes!

The situation is as stands.
I just don't know why some are against me getting the new one. To me I see it like this- A brand new car, a color that's more easily maintained, has the leather and wheels I want...for the same price I pay now for a hard to maintain color, cloth sets (that are a pain to clean when my dogs get hair everywhere, and no satellite radio. To me its a WIN/WIN.

I'm for getting what you want. You're paying for it.

Well I would have spoken to him FIRST and told him all that. Then if he did what he did I would tell him to

if he has a problem with that. That's why I am single.

F- that. If I want a new car, I am getting it. IF I am paying of course. And IF it is reasonable. This is reasonable. And you have some valid points there. Any woman I end up with will be CAR/MOD FRIENDLY damn it! LOL (and you are a woman and he is a guy!)

I do see the points being made. You will be paying more for the car even though it's only $6 more a month. (clock resets on loan, etc) And in this economy maybe that is not the best move. But we all are driving two seaters with bad gas mileage that require expensive gas and you only live once! Do what makes you happy I say! Good luck and hope it works out for you.

Just buy the car. If your other half can't get over it then get a new one to go with the new car. It's a win/win!!!
