Oh those Tundras are sooo nice, my truck of choice if I got one! I understand car financing a little, but when I went to make a deal the other day I got a little lost. They said they will pay Tag Tax & Title, and pay my Sunfire off, but they only gave me 4k for the Sfire when I owe 7600? The sti...

billabong_star

lol Hopefully one day I will own one paid off that I will still like. I make my own car payments and if I could build credit up for myself at 17 (can I?) I would. I don't know if my parents will go with me to the car lot and make a deal, They are kinda fed up with all the vibe talk I do I drive by t...

billabong_star

yup. It's actually 11k for a car for college, but Im only putting 10k on the car so I can use the extra 1k for down payment on apartment and some necesities. My parents don't like the idea of letting me get a new car (This will be my 6th) and the high payment.

billabong_star

17.. Im going to try and make the deal with my parents on the car tomorrow, So keep your fingers crossed for me!

billabong_star

My payments need to be under $350. It will be a 60 month note and I think Im going to take the 3.9 finance rate instead of the 1k back. Wish they still had the good deals the used to awhile back on these.

billabong_star

How much should I take off the sticker?

billabong_star

For 60 months, It's 3.9. Makes a cheaper payment. All I get is 1k off for loyalty in the incentative/rebate area.

billabong_star

I think I will go for the low finance rate. Am I able to take that I heard not all can qualify.

billabong_star

I come out with lower payments if I take the 3.9 instead of 1k rebate. I have no clue why our bank rate is so high? At 10%, I will pay the 1k rebate right back througth interest.

well, The Vibe is my car of choice. Im a pontiac guy, I've had a Grand Prix and a Sunfire that I love. Would love an Fbird but it would not be a wise choice to make. 1 - what is your Sunfire worth on trade? Worth real low, but they will pay it off at trade. $7600 is what I owe.2 - what should the Vi...

billabong_star

I love it, but it really should be around the 20k range..

billabong_star

Im not in love with my sunfire or the new ones, but I want a Vibe! I can afford 350 a month but I have a feeling Im getting shafted? Salesman/dealerships make me nervous.

billabong_star

Today there was actually a Vibe in my town for sale new, On the showroom floor at the local dealership. $20,260 Frosty Monotone, M&T, power packages.. I want my payment around $350. They said they would give me $7600 for my Sunfire (I owe that much) but they got the price to $14,010. That's taki...

What are Toucan Eurolite Headlights?

billabong_star

an SUV? Are you thinking of the Pacifica???

billabong_star

Sorry, I wasn't a member back then!

billabong_star

How does that remote starter work? It starts without the key and everything?? Can anyone explain what the hella horns everyone talks about are for?

To get an actualy Vibe - 20k

billabong_star

There is nothing wrong with my Sunfire..but they aren't worth a whole lot. I have an Abyss Monotone and a Frosty Monotone Im going to try to make deals on. Both are 20k and I will see if either will take my Sfire off my hands.

billabong_star

lol@NovaWhat's the cargo organizer??

billabong_star

How hard is an abyss to keep clean? I know black is hard, but not all black is the same. What do you do to keep it shiny?

billabong_star

Remember, the new Fusion Orange applied to all (or almost?) the new Pontiac line. So yellow would be out of the question, Sunfire has yellow already. Taupe is taken, and Forest Green. A color that could go on all the 05 line could be a light baby, or robin egg blue?

billabong_star

Does anyone know if dealers will pay off your car at trade if it's on a new car? Or is that a long shot?

billabong_star

Those backup lights are a fetish of mine! I LOVE the style, I have them on my Sunfire...

billabong_star

How come when you fall for these sort of things you end up feeling stupid?

billabong_star

Well the auction was a total waste of $50... So that means no Vibe for me, unless by some miracle chance a dealership will pay it off at trade - with my luck, it ain't going to happen.

billabong_star

Try http://www.edmunds.com or http://www.kbb.com

billabong_star

Didn't even think to do that - Thanks!

billabong_star

The Sunfire has no bids but I have sold one car on Ebay before and most people don't bid until close to the end of the auction. Since Im not buying over the internet, I don't expect anyone else to have to. I hope it sells though, Cause it's my last chance at getting my dream vibe! http://cgi.ebay.co...

billabong_star

Hey raging....Did your Sunfire do pretty well in the wreck? I've heard they don't, I have one and I get kind of nervous driving it in case of an accident.

billabong_star

I like all cars stock. Only few light mods on them like new high power bulbs or the new horns, tint or in some cases the clear lights can look good. BTW I had clear corner lenses on my Grand PRx, They looked awesome I wonder when they will have some for the Vibe?

billabong_star

Thanks guys. I guess it wouldn't be a good idea so I will steer clear. Used cars with 37k miles here is not many at all. I'll keep trying to find another though!

billabong_star

Over 6 hours is a long way to just look at a vehicle. I've bought alot of used cars over 50k miles on them?

billabong_star

I didn't think 37k was alot of miles?? Maybe 60-75 IMO

billabong_star

You cannot use that if it's used at a dealership can you?

billabong_star

Does anyone think buying a car over the internet despite physically seeing it is something you shouldn't do? I found a used Vibe, Lava Mono with M&T for $11,991. It's over 6 hours away. I didn't want to pass the deal up but I could have it shipped. I've seen pictures of it and I know people buy ...

billabong_star

They are only $50-100..And they are better than eyes, great on the highway. - Definantly worth it!

billabong_star

Oh...Radar Detectors are HEAVEN! But they don't always work..Specially on hills, so you still have to be cautious. Don't use irresponsibly and go 100 mph everywhere. The blue lights are cool too!

billabong_star

Yup. I've sold one car already off Ebay. As long as I get it paid off then I don't care.

billabong_star

$371 a month would be my payment on a brand new one. I can make that. I will have smaller to no payments at all after I turn 18. I guess it all depends on IF my Sunfire sells, I've put it on Ebay though.

billabong_star

Oh! Michigan! Thanks for pointing it out, I wasnt sure if I was right or not. I haven't even seen a PIC of a Monotone Envy, though we've seen pics of the loch ness monster and big foot supposedly - What does that tell you?

billabong_star

Is it Monotone or Two-Tone? It's in Missouri right?

billabong_star

Yeah I've spent plenty of time on Edmunds and their calculators..My parents aren't really happy about me trying to get a brand new one, They would rather I get a cheaper used. Problem is, You can't find a used one here.

billabong_star

Imports to me always have small wheels and tires, It drives my insane.

billabong_star

It all depends on whether my Sunfire sells or not I guess. I like the monotone look though, That would be my choice

billabong_star

Wow...Everyone's Vibe is soo nice, Any one of you can just ship your Vibe to me any time

billabong_star

Hidious! Too bright! And a Matrix?? YUCK!
