+1........ You have only had it for 11 months & only have 5,100 miles on it. You can always fix up the Max to your own liking (rims, lower it a bite, ground effects & etc). The Max is not an ugly looking car by any means. If your dad co-sign for you, then you are still building up credit regardless b/c your name is on the document. Now if payments stop & car gets repo, then both of your credit scores will be f**ked. So keep paying the note (you or your parents) & be happy that you have a nice car b/c it is better than not having anything at all.
