same here, been free since Sept 08. I would like a 08-09 Tahoe, but since I'm going overseas for a year it wouldn't make sense. other than the Tahoe, the BMW M3 or Infiniti M35 stays on my mind.
OP, that's a good point on the IS-F, but idk how i feel about taking that used from someone. there have to be a serious weeding out process.

hmm i guess we just don;t say that .
i knew what it was i'm just trying to figure out if it's an east coast phrase , southern phrase , or african american phrase .
as i've heard a car payment called a car note by east coast folks , southern folks , and only time i;ve ever heard it on the west coast (or near the west coast) has been by african americans.....
just seems odd to me .

Whew, thought I was the only one without a payment as well. My next vehicle will either be the MINI Cooper S or the FT-86 (or something similar). Smaller, sportier than the tC, and hopefully weighing a good deal less as well.
Have to say, though, my mentality changed when I paid off my tC last year. While I was still making car payments, it worked out to only about $30 more per month to sell the tC and get the MCS. Not that bad, right? Well, now that I've paid it off it would be like $300 more per month!! Yikes! Suddenly the tC felt like it drove better than it did before, so probably going to shoot for keeping it for another year or two... Maybe by that time one of the following will happen:
The FT-86 will be out
The Abarth SS will finally show up at Chrysler dealers here
Audi will bring over their A1
The new MINI Coupe will be smaller and lighter than the Cooper

Im keeping my tC for a DD. Wife would drive it the most. Right now im saving for another Integra. Looking to get another 4 door but swap a JDM Type-R motor into it, swap out the brakes for Type-R 5 lugs, and basically turn it into a 4 door Type-R that you might see only in Japan. But the tC is staying in the family....although if a that new tC comes out, toyo subi car, then I might jump on that. Big maybe tho. I will probably just keep the tC and not have a payment on a car. Plus the tC has been so good to me. Not one single problem yet, knock on wood, and it has 70,000 miles, its an 07.
