Financing SC Kit

solidus · 02-28-2017, 10:53 AM

I personally think this is a good discussion but unfortunately I think this will be shut down because the answer '"Yes" has been given. Until then.........The concept of financing FI is about as logical as getting a loan for a set of tires. Considering the risk, the compounded interest would put the cost of a kit on par with the total value of the car it was installed on.

I experienced this first hand doing a CSC replacement in my garage on jack stands over a weekend several years ago. Talk about a sigh of relief when the first test drive at 8 pm on Sun night went smooth.

I clearly remember a radiator install going about the same.

If you're trying to finance it at 0% because you rather make payments on it and accrue the interest on that amount of money you already have is one thing.

If you want to finance it because you don't already have the funds in your bank account is another and isn't recommended.

I will have to agree with all these responses. Sure i could swipe a supercharger kit on my card and try and pay it off... but then 3 years later more debt is to come on other upgrades, bells and whistles, and of course.. if the engine or sc itself goes out.
But the other side.. i guess if making rent, car loan?, other debts is paid and is going to be paid while paying the SC kit, then its your choice.

10k is a pretty good chunk to pay off if SCs go for that out the door and running. Even at 3 years of 10k finance 0% everything is almost 300$ extra. I guess thats like having an extra car to pay off for some.

Yep,

The best mod you can buy for any build is a second car.

From the moment I decided to spend my money buying a GTM product till the day I finally got my Z straightened out is a TEXTBOOK reason that anyone thinking about boosting their Z better have ALL THEIR DUCKS IN A ROW. Debt and comprimise will bend you over and make you wish you bought a Ford Escort or Honda Civic. ANYBODY'S best bet is to buy a car from the manufacturer that is as fast as you need it to be. PERIOD.
