Thanks Marcel. It sure is a nice feeling... I probably should have done it two years ago instead of ProCharging it, HA! Either way it's all paid for now and MINE! Time to save up and add a few "stages" to it!

Thanks Guys!

I wanted to give myself a track day for my Birthday but my friend from Ohio was in town this weekend for his birthday so we went out celebrating! Hopefully I can make the 21st T&T, but we'll see if I can get a trailer for the date!

It's a great feeling to pay off the car.. now that monthly payment will go to my truck (which will be paid off early, soon as well) and Harley then I will save a bit and mod the car a "stage" at a time....maybe! Gotta see what will break first, if I ever make it to the track!

What's done is DONE!! I received the Title today!! Looking at it I remember I took the car for a test drive off the lot with 117 miles and it's titled for 122... Oh what a sweet feeling it is even more so that I have the Title in my possession!

Sorry to gloat, but it's just too exciting to own my first Brand New car!
