Default Paid off Z?

I was just courious as to how many of us have paid off our Z? I owe about 12 grand still on my ZR and was wondering if all of those Z's with lots of mods are paid off yet.

Just wondering...

My goal is to have it paid off by next summer at the latest. Then bolt on a s/c!

I wish I was in your boat! I just had to refinance my car because school is getting harder and I had to drop a considerable amount of hours at work. Fortunately I had a very nice down payment, so I could easily refinance it and drop my payments. I planned on keeping my car anyways so I can save for a house after I get out of school. I am very glad I got the extended warranty because I basically have to keep my car.

The only down side is now the rates are more and I am now looking at 4.9% as oppose to 3.9%. Well worth it though, because when I make more money I can always pay more against the principle.

As for mods they are all paid for. No credit card bills either.

I too could have paid cash for it, but I prefer having my money work for me in the stock market and other places.

Wrote a check for the car. Paid $500 over dealer invoice. Took the 2.6K I saved and added Nismo wheels and top of the food chain tires
Took an extra 3k and got rid of that pathetic Bose system.(Kept head unit).
Added an S2000 radio antena and light window tint. I'm cruising now
Oh, had an excellent detail guy get rid of all swirls and scratches on my SB 05 Z w/ B orange seats 6sp.
Have 750 miles on the car. No feathering (:-) LOL

Cashed mine out.

Wanted to put $10K on a credit card (for the frequent flyer miles). But the finance guy claimed they had a policy: no more than $5K in credit card payments. Ever heard of a policy like that...?
