Who REALLY owns their Z???

JohnsZ

I had an interesting conversation recently with one of our fellow members regarding how much we each were paying per month for our Z. That led me to wonder how many of us were financing or have paid for it outright. For fun, let's take a little survey and see who REALLY owns their Z. So reply if you want! It might be an interesting result.

Extrapolate for age. I'm 56 and paid for mine in cash.

That might be true, but I paid for half of it myself by selling my last car which I owned and running a successful detailing business back in CT. I knew I would get flamed. And it is nice, but I appreciate my property and take care of my car better than most as I have a lot of respect for working for what you have.

LMFAO Warbucks....I am 27, I still owe about 22K on my Z. I paid off my '07 Galant after I got back from Iraq, and traded it in for the Nissan.

I am pinching every penny (being single helps) to pay it off as a Christmas gift to myself this year. USAA helped me finance it, and they are awesome with payment flexibility.

Paid in full here.

It seems a pretty large number of owners paid cash for their Z's, based on similar threads in the past.

Mine was purchased outright.

DrEvil

I paid more than half in cash and took a loan out for the rest. Don't have any debts, both kids out of college, so I figgered that I 'll pay it off before the year ends. Only owe <6k. After 4 yaers of college, 4 years evil medical school, 3 years of evil residency and 25 years in practice, I got my Z.

Paid in full.

I'm wondering what are you doing at HCC, you don't go there do you ?

Is it an evil practice?

I can buy one outright by December if I start saving right now, but because I work overseas as a defense contractor, it is damn near impossible to get leave that time of year because everybody & their mother wants to be home for the holidays.

I'm also looking at boosting my credit scores (just not a huge credit user) to try & get out of this "starter home" & into a nicer house in a nicer neighborhood, so a friend of suggested that instead of buying outright, finance a portion of it, & pay it off over the next 12 months which should boost my scores.

If I go that route, I'll also have the time & $$ handy to get the clear bra installed, some new headlights (love those 180 halo mods for it), rear fog light, & some Michelin Sport A/S+ (it will be winter after all). Downside, it will be sitting in the garage for about a year before I'm home for good, & thats a year gone from the warranty.

Just don't buy a 2011, buy a 2012 or 2013. Nissan might come out with a new shade of gray that is more to your liking.

I bank with USAA (not a real well known bank outside of the military), & they quoted 3.39 to 3.79 for a 48 month loan on 18K.

I'm not a fan of gray at all. Pearl white for me, with red next. Might even consider Chicane Yellow if it ever became available again.

Don't own it yet but it is my ONLY debt. Paid for house and no other debt of any kind.
