Default Own or making payments on your Vette?

Just curious to see how many people either own outright or make payments on their Vettes...

I over pay my monthly payments in the hopes to pay it off sooner, but right now, I am a rent to own sort of guy.

I sold the wrx and took a loan on the difference. I'm making 3 payments every two months during school and double payments during the summer. the bad part is I know I will sell it before it's paid for. I did that with the wrx. what am I gonna get? I newer vette of course!

We also lucked out ond got the General's 0% interest and no payment for 3 months. I drove our '03 coupe off the dealer's lot without spending a dollar. Paid the last dollar on Feb. '06. Whew, what a relief!

I bought mine as a 25th b-day present to myself. The sale was set up for cash, but the car came in a month early so I only had 10 grand to put down. Once my investments came due I withdrew the cash and paid it off. Talk about 1 payment and out, SWEET !! However I opted to take 11 months to pay it off in hopes my credit score would go up. Too many cash purchases and not enough on credit. Oh well cash in hand is always better then a BS credit score. LOL !!
