I currently have a boosted Nismo Z putting down 500+ at the wheels and I'm still paying on it but its getting close to paid for. Am I crazy for thinking about selling it for a Z06? And before anyone says it yes I could afford a new Z06 but obviously the payments would be a hell of a lot more than my current Z payments. Another factor is my Z will be due for emissions testing in a year and a half and theres not a chance in hell it will pass so I would have to get creative with that. What would you guys do??
If u can't buy it cash u can't "afford" it. Payoff ur z and drive it 5 yrs from da day u pay it off.

F&I guys make tons at dealerships. It's the techs that get screwed and have to move on to other careers to make money.

That's BS!!!
Plenty of us finance our cars and pay them off with no problems, just because we didn't fork over $30K-$$40K cash don't mean we couldn't afford it. Millionaires lease and finance just a we do too. OP do what you like, your life, your money, EMBRACE THE MOMENT!!!

Not totally agreeing with you there. To millionaires, lease and finance are investment, business and tax decisions. They have tax/financial advisors around them to put the strategies together. For normal people to take on a loan for a 90k car usually means cutting back on your 401K and IRA contributions and/or paying off the mortgage later and/or taking money out from the emergency account. I worked in the financial planning business for a while and I know that being able to make the car payment doesn’t always mean you can afford it.

I see what you mean, but none of us knows the others situation, plans or can foresee there dimize or growth potential based on financial decisions. We're simply talking about cars, living life and the things we enjoy.
