I could have paid for my 2012 Z with cash, but Nissan had a 0% financing package going and the dealer took $3k off the list price, so why hand out all that money at once?

0% all the way. I still put 9k down and got about 8k for my trade in. I owe 18k at the moment. Monthly payments are 349 dollars. I plan to pay off student loans first then just pay the minimum monthly for the Z. It's nice knowing I have the 0% financing so I don't feel like I have to cut any corners to save up and pay it off due to any apr.

Student loans are tax deductible...

Why didn't you put that money towards paying down/paying off your student loan debt instead of your car? Your car depreciates in value on a monthly/mileage basis. Its a bad investment compared to putting your money into your degree IMHO.

Although I financed 100% for 6 years, I own my car

No one can tell me what to do or what not to do to my car. I can do whatever I want to it. So, yeah i think that makes it mine

Also, I am not upside down and never will be

with my scheduled payments. I plan to keep this car for a long time.

Mins is already paid off...

XiP · 10-14-2012, 11:12 PM

Paid 34k in full for mine

Rusty · 10-15-2012, 12:09 AM

Bought my 2011 Nismo used. 7,000 miles on it. Paid cash, $35,000. 56yrs old, widower, empty nester.

dweedlebug · 10-15-2012, 07:10 AM

Also bought my 2011 used about a year ago. 1,700 miles when it arrived to me, wired $33k cash.

Got a crazy deal from someone who just didn't like the car.

Was 36 when bought, married, no kids.
