Free and clear; paid cash.
But, fwiw, most of that cash came from some money my dad left me after his passing last year.

Found a loaded 2009 leftover.
But got it for 21% off list, so that helped too.

Paid cash for my vettes and other cars. Do not like to be in debt at all. Mortgages paid off too, so I am truly debt free.

Never finance anything that loses value.

If I recall, you just moved to sunny California, so you'll be able to do more "behind the wheel therapy" which should help with your addiction.

I hope your move has helped you achieve your goals.

No chit....If life happens to throw you a heavy curve you can always let the bank take the car back if it comes right down to it.....Not that Id ever want that to happen....It's not easy to qualify for 0% financing...especially with nothing down like all of my 0% purchases were...

GM was giving away a 4,000.00 cash back rebate when I made my purchase.

I didn't buy a Corvette unitl I COULD pay cash for one without it hurting me.

Let's face it, if you have a Corvette, and are making making payments on it, I certainly hope it's your daily driver. If it's a side-toy like mine, and your making payments, I think you're friggin nuts.

Default Withdrawl

I'v almost made it to a year April 10 with my LMB C6-06. This was my first of many to come I hope. I have enjoyed the ride with the forum. I have learned alot from each and everyone who post. Yes, I'm addicted just like everyone. I have been on it several times today just seeing what others are doing or just asking. I love the Vett. I love how you guys make changes to your ride. It gives me ideas. So, if I'm addicted to the CF that must mean. Do I need help. Nope. It means I'm an American who loves a Beautiful Sports Car. Wow, I like this addiction.TIM$VETT

You have already managed the first step in admitting you have a problem.

Just treat the Forum like one big worldwide group therapy session.
