Hope to see some nice Z's enroute.

Well ****.. I have a fedex account (its free and you get cheaper rates).. I wonder if I can get free supplies.

Why is it that when I find a golf ball I like they stop making it....

Callaway Superhot 55's. I don't like the 70's. Compression is different and feels worse at short shots.

$780 for at least 5 years??? NOT WORTH IT

Luckily mine's all paid for, but geeeeez there's no way in hell I'd even consider a Z if it was gonna be a $780/mo commitment for half a decade.....

As am I and for 5 years. But i am doubling up on payments. I only did 5 years since interest was lower when they offered it. I'll have mine paid off by next year at the rate I am going.

I could understand if someone has a 1k payment on a lambo or porsche. But not a freaking Nissan.

I could total this one, get a second one, and I'd still be better off than he is

5 year loans on a new car is stretching it in my opinion. $780/month better be a $0 down, 0% APR deal on a new car.

If you're buying new, you better have cash on hand. No way would I ever take out a loan on a brand new car.

I somehow got 1.6% on mine when it went to 5 years. 3 years was 5% for whatever reason. I put down 40% on a used 09 and will just pay off the rest. Promotion at work means I am now doubling down on payments. Pay it off, sell it, buy whatever new thing Nissan decides to make in the future.

Interesting. Usually the other way around with rates vs length! Nice deal you got.

Most new cars generally have really good financing rates available. I wouldn't pay cash unless the rate was over 2-3% but I also wouldn't buy new unless I could get a good rate. Used cars are generally a better deal but some models hold their value so well you're just better off buying new. It's crazy.

Pretty sure my handicap is about it drop again. Just shot 49 on the back 9 which is way harder than the front. Long drive was 310!!
