Default Finally a vette owner.
48,000 miles and 5 years, the bank no longer owns it, just made my last payment and it's all mine . The time went pretty quick and I still enjoy this car as much as when I first got it. Here is a pic from a couple of weeks ago, not bad for a 5 year old car.

It's a good feeling, enjoy your Mag Red coupe. I'm biased, but it is unquestionably the best color for a Vette.

Congrats, it is a good feeling. I worked to get mine paid off before I got married.

Of course when I paid it off the credit union could not find the title. I had to apply for a lost title. 6 months later they found it.
