Now at $620 per month, that is around $7,500 in the last year alone that I will have to pay down to have probably at that time what will be a $5,000 car at the end. so why should I pay $7,500 to own $5,000?? You are right, I will not own anything, however, I would rather it be a wash than a loss...
It's the new math. Look, there's no way to make this work. This was an emotional issue for you and thus money was not the issue. I doubt we'll see $5,000 Crossfires in my lifetime. Our cars values are dropping like rocks because we, the owners, are making any excuse to get out of them. I'd have to say...I'll start keeping my eyes peeled. It seems that people are getting rid of their cars at prices that will entice me to buy a spare. My wife would love a Yellow two tone Roadster Automatic. Anyway so upset that their car is worthless willing to let one go for $18K. Give me a call.
