07 SC stage 2, catback, CAI, 10,000 miles. I was thinking of trading it for the new SS TC because of the new 0% interest. might be able to get my payments down. IF so, i would trade it. IS that a good idea though? because Ive read that cars with my mods, beat the TC?? i know its stock vs modded, but is there going to be mods for the TC? I dont want to trade in for a slower car ya know... Thanks

 

You won't be getting a slower car, and yes there will be mods.

 

well hopefuly the payments work out then. I checked out trading for a saturn sky, but it is a 33k dollar car and monthly payments were 450. id think on the 23k cobalt they will be a bit better. only problem is i have negative equity in my car. the will give me 15k trade in, and i owe like 20,000, anyone know how all that will work out?

 

Yeah I was thinking of a Sky too..but the price, only a 2 seater, and I don't like soft tops. Umm I'm not really experienced with financing especially with negative equity...but it doesn't seem like you really owe too much so it should be cheaper still than what you would pay for the Sky. Do you have $ for a downpayment also?

 

im going to talk to the guy on monday i think, just to run the number. then he will do a dealership trade since only like 3 dealers still have TC's

no money for DP, thats what kills me. im living on campus workin for a prof this summer and making like 0 dollars (that i can throw at a DP) im paying 400 a month right now, so if i can get to that i think il do it. And i think it will be 400 or less a month based on what the sky would cost me, but that was all with out considering my negative equity so im not too sure..

the saturn sky was 450 a month with a 15k trade in and thinking i only owed 15k on my car (meaning it would be a wash) so im not sure what the payments will be like considering the negative equity. but also the cobalt is 10k cheaper...

 

There is NO zero % financing on the Cobalt SS.

Sorry bud

 

I just called and dude said 60 months 0% with trade in of 2000 or newer vehicle

 

If you want to throw away money then go right ahead.

 

please explain?

 

FWD performance cars suck bawls.

fool me once, shame on you
fool me twice, shame on me.

 

An0m speaks the troof.

 

yeah thats my only prob,I want RWD. I think its going to be pointless to keep modding my cobalt because traction is such an issue. I was thinking that the TC has the traction control and would be a car easier to mod. WEll not easier but at least you can put that power to the ground easier...??? its either take advantage of the deal they got now, or wait a couple years untill i get this paid off and then move on to bigger better things.

---- What are you guys driving?

 

if you trade, face it, you will loose money.

 

well not necessarily.. because i am paying a lot in intrest, and with the new car i would be paying 0%... but thats why im just gonna go to the dealer and have him crunch the numbers... why cant they make our cars RWD... it would be soo much sweeter.

 

Just get what you want

 

what i want i cant afford. V8 RWD 6speed. but untill then i have no qualms about driving a 13 second car that gets 32 mpg. I guess ill just have to wait untill tomorrow to find out what the monthly payments are. and see if It makes sense. Im not switching cars unless its same price-ish.. no reason to pay more money for essentially the same car.

 

get it man u wont be disappointed

 

there are plenty of used RWD V8s around for less than the price of a new ss/tc

 

Pretty much sums it up right there.

 

im not worried about being disappointed, will it be much different from my Stage 2 SS SC?

No used vehicle will give me 0% finance, and the reason i bought brand new is because i had horrible luck with a few used card not under warranty. so Warranty is huge for me.

 

hmm I bet they wont give you more then 15,000 for your car

 

ive already had it appraised for 15k

 

yeah so I was right so your adding 5,000 to what ever car you by.Which means even at 0 intrest you are starting in the hole it takes a long time for intrest to be 5000$ on a car

figure it this way take your payment now x 12 x the years of loan then take away what you paid for the car. how much intrest would you pay if you kept the car till paid off?

 

just go up there and drive it and as long as they treat u good get it

 

It all comes down to what you want
