Haha, it'd probably be longer than 8 years. Damn, spending 600 a month not including gas, insurance, and MAINTENANCE. Seems like quite a bit [&:]

Something doesn't sound right. A 2008 Corvette goes for about $48,000. Or at least around here that's what it goes for. To get that for $600 per month, you'd need to get an interest rate of 1.3% on a 7 year loan in which case you'd spend just over $2,200 in interest. What are the terms of the deal?

I can't ever see paying $600 for a car anyway. I know it's all persoanl preference, but I'd MUCH rather have a car that I can work on and upgrade myself. If I won a GT500 right now, I'd sell it and use the money to build up a nice older Mustang. Personally, Iappreciate a built up fast car more than a stock fast car.

BTW, the $48,000 I listed is for the cheapest one around here. It only goes up from there.

Unless he puts a good sized down payment on one, I don't see how this is going to work. Plus he's got dealer's fees and taxes etc. Oh well, if he can make it work more power to him.

Then of course the creator of the thread disappears... I don't think it's possible, unless there is an enormous down payment.

Sam, I completely agree with you. There is nothing better than wooping a vette with a homebuilt stang or any other fast car out of the box for that matter.
