Default She's all mine!!

Just made an early payoff to the bank today for my 2004 C5. And in about 2 weeks, I should have the title in hand. Additional funds are now freed for more upgrades.

That's always cause for celebration, and truly a great sense of accomplishment. Sounds as though the mod bug is biting you pretty hard to get started. Congrats on your ownership, you can say for a fact, it is truly yours.

Congratulations! It’s a great feeling knowing your toy is paid for. Me personally I would never finance a toy if you can’t pay cash and why bother having it .

Thanks, everyone! Sad part is I can't even take her out until spring to celebrate. Too much road salt on the ground in my area to even consider it.
