Ahh okay, now I get it. Thanks! Guess it would be better to sell my Maxima privately and then get a 2009 Z.

Ah that makes sense. Thanks guys for answering my questions! Guess its time to sell my Maxima and pay off the loan! My parents may take the Maxima off my hands and I'll be trading my civic for a Z to give me a fresh start hopefully.

Since I owe $27K I could sell it for little bit more to make little profit? or Do I have to sell it what I owe on my loan?
