Not that I am disrespecting your choice, but, why not enjoy your practically brand new Maxima for few more years and then look into getting a Z or another sports car when you are financially well off on your own?

Its all cool, Well 370z has been my dream car before I got the Maxima, since my parents keeps telling me to get a 4 door car or they wouldnt help co sign the loan. I just love the 370z, so sporty looking. RWD and fast. I want a car to have fun in also. But the Maximas CVT is gay and not fast enough lol. Not only that I want to go fast but I want a car I would love to drive in everyday.

Idk if its too early for me to join here but I would love to learn more about the 370z from you guys even though I dont have one yet lol.

Oh and thank you guys for helping me understanding the loan stuff! Was very helpful!

Almost forgot about asking this too, Since my dad co-signed the loan for my Maxima and he didnt put my name in there with him and now I'm not earning any credits. Can I go refinance my loan and have my name on there with my dads? if I can will my payments go up more since I dont have any credits?

I don't know enough to guide you. Sorry. Go talk to a dealer and see if they can help you out.

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.

I agree with you on this. I went to the dealership the other day and I told him what I wanted to do so then he wrote down my info and then went to check my credits. When he came back he said that I didn't have any credits since the loan is in my dads name. But I thought since my dad co-signed the loan I would be getting credits also.

Could I go refinance my loan and then have my name in the loan with my dad?

What he is saying is that the dealership will not give you full value of what the Max actually is worth b/c they would need to make money off of the Max for themselves. You still owe 27k on the Max & let's say that the Max is actually worth 28k. The dealership might give you 22k maybe 24k, so you are down 3-5k that would be rolled over into your new car if decided to actually get the Z. This would not be wise or a smart move on your behalf. The goal is to break even or come out ahead, but not be negative & jump into another vehicle. That is just crazy & stupid.

As others have stated & including myself enjoy the effen Max. You can still do a lot to it to make it look cleaner & sexier than before. I would join a Toyota forum for Max's & see what others have done with their Max's. I would love to have either a brand new GT-R, M3, or a Cayman R. I do not want to buy a car that the monthly car payment is an effen mortgage payment..... NOT PRACTICAL. So I am enjoying what I have & I really do like it (my Nismo).
