I'm gonna side with hubby on this one. It's just financially a stupid decision to trade for the same car but different color. Please don't do it.

What happens with tax and title though? That could be a pricey 'extra' cost.

Ahhh, yes. You have to plant the seed, water, fertalize, fertalize, and fertalize before you can harvest. The roadster purchase was about a 10 month crop.

Really though, my wife and I don't make any big purchases without serious mutual consideration.

Am I the only one who thinks personal information like this should be kept off a public forum?

SophiaZ

^ no... Were the Z family

You basically just agreed with me but I know you didnt mean to. I'm just saying personal issues such as marriage arguments, etc, should be kept private. There isn't really a reason to publicize it and it could only cause further problems. Besides people you dont know personally dont need to know your business.

Trade in both. You only live once.

Another thing to think about is that your current Z is worth more now than it ever will be. Each day and each mile driven it drops in value. Maybe you can work out a deal that if you sell it, rather than trade it in, your husband will let you buy the one you really want.

I too pamper my motor vehicles (Hummer, Z, sportbike, dirtbike, and atv). I just tell my wife, it's either this or a mistress, your choice. She understands.

Nothing wrong with trading for what you want if it's worth it to you. So what if you lose some cash in the process. If it's what you want, go for it. People lose cash all the time with no real benefit (i.e. smoking, drinking, gambling, sporting events). Too me, those example are a complete waste of money, but to some they are very important. Different strokes. It's your money, spend it how you want.

Good luck, I hope you can work it out.

The Tax and title gets worked into the loan amount. You don't pay that on the side (unless you wanted to). That's why people grind on Out the Door price (I hate that term by the way).

Also Sophia, since your cancelling the warranty, you lose out on that too on the next car. it's $6/month and the warranty that you had on your car. Also the time issue - you'd be making payments for another 18 months over what you had originally planned for.

It doesn't look like you keep your car for long anyway though so I'd just cancel it regardless and pocket the $1000. you're covered for 3/36,000 and 5/60,000 from factory.

If you want my advice, if you aren't too deep in the hole of what they're giving you and what you owe, think about a lease. It looks like you're fine with always having a car payment but with a lease, it's easier to get out of a car near the end and your payments are lower. I don't think the lease programs for a Z are great, but its better than continually rolling negative equity because you'll eventually hit a point where the banks won't finance you anymore.

I hope he doesn't read the Forum. Might get things really heated between you two if he peeped in here. Good luck with your z deal though.

Im on here for advice on my car.... not asking if I should get a divorce. Thanks for your info tho on this topic.

ProfessorDave

You have so many mods! How will you get them switched over, and the black Z back to stock? Just curious...the task would overwhelm me.

This my wife too.

Keep talking to your husband about the new Z. I bet he will come around eventually.
