if i can get the srt refinanced it wouldn't be an issue...

plus with an additional guaranteed 3k coming in i could throw at the srt to help pay it off faster

or someone can buy it today http://www.tristatetuners.com/forum/...ad.php?t=85005 :lol:

Lowering springs totally hurt the ride quality of my mustang. If I could do it over again I would get 4 cylinder fox springs, especially in the front.

I like driving my bf's car cause it's so low... and you can whip around turns real fast and its super fun!

DPancoast 08-05-2009 12:43 PM

I don't like lowering springs really. Especially an s-tech low kinda spring. Makes it really boat like and obly looks good. Although I put a set of Tanabe springs on my old mr2 and the handled great compared to stock. Barely any body roll.

Well, i decided to start calling him number 12. he answers 0_0

Oakes 08-05-2009 12:52 PM

ROBOT DOG!!!

kill it with FIRE!

Erik 08-05-2009 12:55 PM

hahaa never! he works on cars with me. well, he lays on me under cars. but if i lay on the ground any other time he wont. just when im under a car. strange. He also puts his head up in the engine bay too. Like puts his paws on the sub frame or suspension and looks around. odd how intrigued he is by a car

If you have to get a personal loan to cover what the bank doesn't wanna finance, you probally shouldn't get the car.

True... but the bank does and didn't approve it:roll:

Go out and buy an old beater and do the cash for clunkers thing. That will get you the difference.

right, and you don't know my credit history either, which they do. :) I could afford both this car and my srt, rent, insurance, food, other bills and still have enough left over to chill with.

simple fact of this whole situation is, i don't have 8g's sitting in the bank to cover the difference, otherwise i would. I'm going to talk to the credit union about refinancing the srt and giving me the auto loan.

that would drop the monthly payments on the srt to something easily more manageable and potentially give me a winter car, and i can pay it off quicker with the other cash i've got coming in.

i've got a buddy willing to loan me a couple grand if i need it... gotta work something out since i'm so damn close. worst case, i'll just refi the srt and order the mustang and pick it up in 3-4 months

Got to have owned the car for a year

Scapegoat 08-05-2009 01:13 PM

mustang should be $500 a month... if i can refi the neon to get it lower i could handle both no issue till i've got it sold or paid off...

Oakes 08-05-2009 01:15 PM

If I made these sacrifices for a car, I'd still have the Nismo Z in the driveway and a bike...but I like having money.

Scapegoat 08-05-2009 01:16 PM

spend it while you're alive

Oakes 08-05-2009 01:17 PM

I have something brewing, don't you worry.
