just wanna see who else out there is still dealing with car payments. i just refinanced my car so i could get a better interest rate. i was planning to finance a hatch but i would rather get my first car payed off. if you are paying for your car. how are you managing to mod it?

*i wish i was a spoiled rich kid*

 

bought my '94 hatch in '98 paid it off by '99... bought my '95 4 door this past spring, hope to have it paid off by oct - nov'ish.

 

Bought my 92 hatch in 01, paid for it in 01, sold it in 02, paid for my Del Sol in 02. Buy crap and build it...it leaves you with more money.

hopefully i get this thing paid of in the next couple of years.

 

i owe more on the engine rebuild than i do on the fuggin car

 

paid all cash for my car

 

thats wat i think about alot of the time. wat will happen if i am still paying on the car and i start to get into the serious stuff like that. wat will i do then?

 

just paid mine off last month

 

mee too... but the motor is a whole different story...

 

Still paying for it....

 

I'm not, but my parents are.

 

lucky

 

Still paying. . .I could have paid off the hb buy now. . .but instead I chose to save for the swap.

I still have 2 years left on the loan.

 

priorities....priorities haha

 

 

my payments are only 125.00 a month. i'll be paying forever, but i still have money to do small things to the hatch.

*EDIT* oh, and right now, i'm currently unemployed. it's hard finding a decent job that can work around my class times. so right now... my parents are making the payments, as well as paying for my insurance.

i'm not nearly paid off and i'm already swapping motors and tranny's. I hope the bank doesn't try to repo my car.

 

i have 2 months left on my 2 year loan

 

i just started paying for mine. how I afford mods? easy, save...but I cant really get into big mods. I just wait for a good stack of money to come my way. (parents, web jobs) and hope its enough for good mod

 

Smart man...all cash for car and mods is the way to go. I'm done with credit.

 

thats soemthing i dont understand. how someone can put big mod investments on credit. (i.e. turbo). you are in a bowl of **** when something goes wrong.

car that dont run and still paying for it =

 

why would you be in a bowl of **** if something went wrong and you paid for things on credit, i'm just curious.

 

I am still paying for my 95 hb and it sucks,not the car but having to pay for it.I just needed to establish some credit.I pay 100 a month.Im almost done now so im planning on doing my swap soon, i didnt want to do it and have no money to pay for it and end up getting it repo.My suggestion is to make 2 list of what you would like to do to your car,one list for what you really want and another list of what you want but could do without.Buy the little things first and get them out the way since you dont have a job,try to save like $100-$150 or more a month is possible,and buy used parts if you can.Sometimes you can get some used parts for cheap and save yourself some cash. Good Luck

 

because you are still paying for something on a car that aint running. IMO i would feel shitty if i was still paying on something and my car aint even running. and if you put it on credit your paying interest on it so your paying even more. if i payed cash and i blew my motor i wouldnt feel so bad.

 

cash on the spot...i hate payments...
