I'm at a loss as to why I ended up with a higher payment on my Scion xB than on my Z06....

Just don't ask how that worked out.

Financed 100% of mine at 11%. Making close to 20% on the investment I made with the money I would have spent on the 'vette, so it works out just fine for me. Besides, the way I drive it, I feel better that someone else owns it!

I've "owned" mine for a year and a half of the 2 that I've had it in my possession....

It feels great to own a piece of American history!

BIG payments, but I only owe 13K now. I'm going to pay it off this year so I can finally make it fast.
