Sitting here at Nissan

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.

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.

I work for a Pharmaceutical company and I've been there for 10 years and very stable.My companies earnings have actually be the best in the past 2 years...figuring probably because of all the layoffs and people going crazy..we're selling drugs like mad! haha I'm not worried about the economy...my mouth is what'll get me in trouble

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!!!
