It's official! No more payments!!!
 
It's been a long time since the last time I was here on the board. Today it's official, that my Max is finally paid off. I got my title in the mail today, I had a huge grin on my face and gleeful. :jump: That extra money, I'm going to start putting some mods on my car sometime in the beginning of the year. :woot2: For now Im just gonna save up to go on a trip to Europe that I have been waiting for a long time to do.:Party:

MacAlert Sep 26, 2005 08:09 PM

Paid my car off last month. It's nice not to have any car payments....(for now atleast).

SEmy2K2go Sep 26, 2005 08:26 PM

Congrats guys. It's a great feeling isn't it?

Kevon1 Sep 26, 2005 11:38 PM

The best thing to do is.............
 
The best thing to do is to keep making the exact same payment into a another account preferably one with out ATM access. Call it a rainy day account or new car fund or whatever. I have been doing this for the last 14 months & have got over $4200 in the account allready.

rkyat Sep 27, 2005 04:17 AM

got $6 grand down, got 11 grand more to go. I should be done in 2 years.

Stephen Max Sep 27, 2005 05:41 AM

I paid off the wife's 2k Maxima last month. I was looking forward to using the extra money to pay off some credit cards, but instead it looks like I'll be using it to pay for gasoline.

dominican254 Sep 27, 2005 06:17 AM

:wtc: Dammit I live for the day my payments end LOL. :wtc:

TXT-1 Sep 27, 2005 06:49 AM

Congrats!!! The only thing I struggle with is not being tempted to go out and buy a new car and start the whole process over again. Must...fight...temptation....to buy....G35C....But I am doing exactly what Kevon1 suggests. I reduced my insurance to the minimum and put that difference plus my old car payment into an ING savings account collecting 3.3% interest. I figure that will go toward a nice down payment for a car or property.

MaximaPolak Sep 27, 2005 06:51 AM

I finished paying mine off in July...it was a 3 year finance.

icelandmaxima Sep 27, 2005 07:15 AM

Its a great feeling to pay things off a feeling I dont yet have but I only owe about $600 or so so it wont be long.

Deckdout2 Sep 27, 2005 07:25 AM

Guess what, I just save a bunch of money on my car insurance!!!...........4 more years of car payments though. :banghead:

filtor1 Sep 27, 2005 07:30 AM

Congrats. Wifey and I paid my 01' off this past Dec. The extra $300 or so per month has worked wonders on paying off our last credit card and made going back to school much easier. Be smart with the extra money. It can add up very quickly.

Biggs_02 Sep 27, 2005 07:35 AM

I'm going to payoff my car next week or this weekend, can't afford full coverage so have to end up paying it off instead of financing. 4g down and 8 left to pay.

boondoxmax Sep 27, 2005 09:14 AM

mines been paid off for over a year now. no car payments=priceless.....

2kprlmax Sep 27, 2005 11:14 AM

I to have made my last payment but I can't mod becasue I have a baby on the way. Who knows maybe taxes I will mod the car.

bugbite77 Sep 27, 2005 12:32 PM

ive got about 5 yrs left lol im in this for the long run

jdm01se Sep 27, 2005 02:47 PM

congrats, yep i got a 3 year with a 6.99 rate, not bad, about 188 a month, but thats without insurance lol

max929 Sep 27, 2005 05:16 PM

9000 left,

Although I might take out a little extra when I buy a house soon and pay it off that way. 9000 divided up in too 360 months is like $25 bucks or something like that.

dominican254 Sep 27, 2005 06:27 PM

Dam I still got like 3 yrs left cuz i only put 1000 down lol this suks

seventy5impala Sep 27, 2005 08:07 PM

Congrats, its a great feelin, and all the extra money, i just finished payin mine off like 2 moths ago, but damn i swear the mmoney still goes somewhere hah......... doh :(

00MaxSE Sep 27, 2005 08:21 PM

Cool guys, I payed mine off in May. :woot: But it's not like I have any extra money now. Grad school's taking all of that.

Ammi Sep 27, 2005 08:23 PM

I've been thinking about doing this next spring. 60 MPG on a bike! :ben:

"crimsons" Sep 28, 2005 01:24 PM

i paid off my old car, then got this max the next day..
It felt good for the day I was payment-free... few more years and i may feel it again

:D

2K3MAX2NV Sep 28, 2005 01:47 PM

2k down 19k to go yay me!!

BG Sep 28, 2005 02:14 PM

Maybe its just me, but I think I don't think I would be able to do any sort of serious modding at all unless my car was payed off or at least close. The only thing I'm thinking about now is springs/struts but want to wait 6months or so and try to knock out another $5k off my car first.

I feel ya on the G35 coupe, very tempting. I have about 1-2 payments left on my 00 maxima
depending on my finacial situation this coming month. And with that extra money I plan to tackle other debts as well as save money. I was just curious what ING is? Is that a credit union or Bank? Sounds familiar... anyways sorry for my ignorance.

MaxBoost925 Sep 29, 2005 07:09 PM

Wow, sounds like you guys paid a fortune!
