About 10% of my salary at the time I purchased (three year loan) ...She's all mine for the past 6 months!! Nice not having a payment.

 

Assuming you meant a year's worth of payments...

If you pay 400/month, then you earn about $1,000,000/yr. Not bad, or you're bad at math and comprehension.

 

I financed $19.9k on my 2010 G37 about 3 weeks ago. So far I've paid $2400 on it. Originally the first payment was due 6/21, currently my next payment "due" is in December. I should have it paid off in a year or less unless all of my overtime dries up.

If I just paid the minimum each month it would be under 5% each month. Actual payments will probably be closer 15-20% though. I live well below my means.

 

3.6% to lease my 09 G37x.

hey, I am 61 so that number better be low, ha-ha!

 

7.5% @ $430/mo... but paying @1k/mo.

 

Lol thats watsup!!! Haha I know 3 kids would cost alot more than 322 dollars a month to take care of lmfao.

 

Thank you! I can honestly say i havent ever once regretted dropping this much on a car! There really is nothing like driving a car like this when your such a young guy lol. Its not like I dont save, I have a very very good safety net in the bank right now, I honesty didnt even pull the trigger on my car till I had like 6 months worth of payments saved already. I wanna enjoy my youth as most would say, and I can honestly say I wouldnt be having as much fun if I was just driving something to get around in. I bet that TT 300zx was worth every penny, my cousin had one when he was 21, what an amazing car it was.

 

13%........

 

No loan, paid cash. Had just sold a race car/tow vehicle/trailer and used the proceeds for a new daily driver. It was my self prescribed therapy program.

FWIW if I had to get a loan I would not go over 3.5%. Needless to say I would not be in a G37 without a huge downpayment and a term of 5yrs. I have lots of other priorities (kids, house, vacations, utilities, savings, etc)

 

I enjoy vehicles. I've spent over $14k on vehicle crap this year so far (payments, insurance, maintenance, etc). I've spent about $5200 on my house, lol. But then, I have 4 vehicles and only one house.

G37 is about 10% of my income, purchased. It holds about $7500 in negative equity from my previous POS vehicle.

 

Interesting statistics..

It looks like 45% of buyers have no to extremely low monthly payments in relation to their income - a very positve and financially sound statistic , especially considering the most common demographic of the G37 buyer - a male between 25-40.

Glad to see fellow G enthusiasts make financially and emotionally sound decisions...

Not to say that the other 65% made wrong choices, but entering the new economy, value for the dollar and maximizing savings seems to be the mantra....

On my first car , a bimmer, it costed me more than 50% of my annual income - a poor financial decision and very rewarding to me emotionally. I've learnt to be more fiscally conservative since then...
