Mine is paid off. Oddly enough my brand new 02 I bought and now this old 01 I both paid cash for. The rest of my cars I owned I all had loans......

Got an awesome deal on my 1998 gt back in early 2000 ($11,300), found some problems but wasn't anything I couldn't fix. She has held up well, no big brake downs (knock on wood). Paid it off in 2003 and been modding slowly but surely, school is expensive but = better mods in the future.

Having 0% interest made it impractical to pay it off too early. I think I paid it off a year or so early('04 maybe) after I got tired of writing checks every month.

Bought straight cash fathers day 4 years ago. Completely stock except for Flowmasters. Add roughly $5k in parts and labor and here it sits, waiting patiently for a blower/built shortblock.

Paid mine off 2 years ago in October, bought new tires, then promptly spun a rod bearing at the end of November '08, this hurt the wallet D'OH!!

Had the motor rebuilt, added cams, LTs and tune, now she is better then ever. And all credit cards are paid off now, just need to add gears (4.30s) then she'll be good to go for a while.

Never really had no payments because while the Mach was down we picked up a '09 Fusion SE V6 Sport...the car kicks ass.

Paid off early a couple of months ago. The title in hand was better than getting that closing title to my first house. Dreaded the payments...next stang will be in cash...

Is your car back on the road yet? How do you like the new motor?
