I put down 6k just so I wouldn't be upside down in it at any point. I'd never pay cash for a car when I can get interest rates that are lower than what I can make in investments. Pentagon Federal has 3% new auto loans, and Navy Federal has 2%! Come on now...if someone offered to loan me thousands of dollars at 2-3%, I'd take it regardless of whether I needed it or not.

If you can't make 3% on your investments, then yes...you should pay cash.
