How much of a down payment did you need?

It was a 2012 with 10,600 miles on it. Car was originally listed for $26k - I ended paying around that much but with taxes and fees included. It was a litte bit more than what I would have liked to spend, but the color, condition, and mileage on the car made it well worth it.

I traded in my previous car for $2000 and added $1500 on top. Total down was $3500.

Thats great, what did your monthly payments end up being? What APR% are you at?

I hope I get a nice chunk of change from this case settlement for the guy who tried to kill me to put down on a car. I will also be saving $ now since I no longer have a car payment or insurance or gas (I was spending around $400+ per month alone on those things)

I guess i'd like to be around $250/$300 per month for a car payment and my insurance will most likely be around $160 per month because of my age and stuff. My 350z was $155 per month for full coverage.

Okay, I'm going to summarize this thread and end the confusion.

The 2009 370z Nismo lapped VIR in 3:12.0

The cars that are within a second or two of that lap time should be "on par."

Wow a NISMO 370z is only .5 faster than a Track model 350z, the 350z is still impressive.... It might be better to just get a used 350z HR and mod it and get a car thats almost equal to the 370z for less $$.
