$10,741 for a stock a/t '03 touring with 86k miles and a torn up driver seat, plus dealer fees, registration fees, etc.
financed $8,753 with 24% APR for 3 years ($4,500 down) which ads up to the grand total of $17,029
first financed car, new credit, no co-signer, got raped but hopefully it's worth it in the end
EDIT: forgot to add that the bumper is a bit banged up but the dealer is supposed to be taking care of that next week so we'll see how that goes, going to put in an aftermarket bumper eventually (nothing too flashy) so it doesn't matter too much

my dad got a crazy deal on some Sparco seats recently thinking they would fit his Alfa Romeo Spider Quadrifoglio (don't ask, he's ridiculous) so I might buy them from him next time I go down to visit unless I find some good covers before then, considering cloth covers beacuse they're cheap but I would prefer a mixture of leather and cloth

yep, I could have gone with a smaller loan or had someone co-sign but I decided to go all in myself and deal with it
I'm surprized I even managed to get a loan for this much with less than a year of credit and only two credit cards, one for $500 with $100 prepaid and another for $300, and for less than 30% APR
I can already tell I'll be enjoying this car for more than 3 years, I work at home so I wont be putting a crazy amount of miles in it either

Just bought a chrome silver 07 manual with 42,000 miles on it for 15.5k in TN. Already has an exotic speed exhaust as well. I totaled my g35 about two weeks ago and decided to make the switch. I never thought I would like the z more but damn I'm in love with this car already. It came from the New York area then was sold to someone in PCB Fla if anyone on here had it before me.

Holy FCK dude. 24% interest is a robbery. If I were you I would return the car and try elsewhere (I'm not sure if you can do with cars but it's worth a try). Did you think that was reasonable at the time?
For 7k u can get a turbo.... ughhh i dont care what car it is... blowing away money like that is nonsense!!! well u live and u learn, most guys been there, young wanting afresh new car, dont care if tjere was a 10k interest!!! As long as the payments were low and u were driving a new car!!! Now that i look back, i will never just give away money so i can drive in a new car...smh

Holy Christ dude. I wonder what rate I would get if I financed. With those rates you must be bat **** crazy or want a Z really really really bad. Prior to getting the BMW and the Z I was cool with cruising in my 95 Camry. I'm still cool with it cause I drive it more than I drive my Z.

I could have gone into credit unions applied for loans myself, but with less than 1 year of credit history I would have just ended up with multiple hard hits on my credit and no loan

just picked up an 03 touring 6speed, 103k, all options. clean carfax/title, needs some maintenance and 5th synchro isnt great, grinds if you shove it into gear real fast, but i paid 8500 for it.
searched for a while and it was the first one i saw with a clean title "locally", yet i still drove 3.5 hours to get it.
