payed 2300 cash, and then finance my other 10 grand. 05 pontiac grand prix gt

i should have bought this car in the first place instead of my truck (06 chevy silverado z71) then my payments would have been real cheap.

i put 7 grand down on my truck and ended up paying 22 grand for it when it was all said and done, wish i would have put down 7k on my GP, payments would be able 120 a month. oh well, you live and you learn. im only 19 but i have experienced alot with finances and am learning every step.

biggest thing i can say is to stay up on your bills, get a low max credit card, and pay that off in full every month. most people who are responsible have fairly decent credit, as long as they havent encountered anything that totally ****ed there life up

My dads aunt died and left him 12 grand, I got about 1100-1200 from it so I paid some bills, baught my 79 Cordoba for $550 with new plugs and wipers.. since then I had installed my stereo new alt+voltage regulator(old failed) and did a tune up with complete fluid change.

so about $800 for a $1400 car (minus stereo) not a bad deal if you ask me. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Paid cash for my car

all 450$ of it.

In march I am going to look to finance something for around 5k or less

Cash. And payments dont mean shit for credit if you're not consistent.

Shocking....

I've pulled off great credit by getting a low limit credit card since 18, using it for smaller stuff and paying it off online that night. Don't buy sh*t you don't have money for. 2+2 =.....?

2+2 = fish!

you can call it a turd but with a v8 400 cu engine at 6.6l I'll be gone before most people even get off the line. xD

Its fast, its large (engine and trunk) its easily upgraded (electrical) and I love the leather.

not to mention this engine has had some performance work done.. I don't know what for sure but you can easily tell once you get on it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
