    Just out of curiosity, why would you ever finance a car like this? IMO, financing a 'toy' is quite ignorant. If you can't afford to pay cash for a toy, you don't deserve it. Nor do you need it.
    Now we are all entitled to our opinion.... but consider the ludicrously of what you are saying. That would in turn mean, that if you cant not pay cash for any car all all then do not finance it? How is me buying a Skyline any different then an Acura TL or Mercedes Benz? Is it just the fact that the Skyline is an exotic car? Which means no matter how much money you make... if you cant buy a Lambo cash, you shouldn’t buy it? Consider what you say, it doesn’t make sense. Same goes for Classic cars and such. Its actually more financially sound to finance something often times than pay cash, especially if you get a low rate. Reason being it leaves the cash you DO have available liquid for other investments. However, as I said, we all ARE entitled to our opinions.

    For that money, I'd build an K-1 Attack and be exotic about it.

    But yea, I'm no different. I'm a Skyline addict like you're. That's why I bought the G35 aka Nissan Skyline and play with it. I'm still waiting for the new GTR to come out so I can be ballin'

    Financing isn't a problem, but it's the matter of maintain it.
    1. Keep up with the payment
    2. Parts availability

    Is your annual income at least 2x the cost of the vehicle that you're planning to purchase?
    Making the payment is not a problem at all. I am actually replacing my EVO IX MR with a Nissan Skyline. It will actually be a little less expensive.

    Believe it or not, parts are not a problem at all. Almost all of you basic parts are interchangeable with vehicles Nissan did sell domestically. Such as the G35 and 300ZX Turbo.

    As for the third question, yes it is.. As I said I will actually be lowering the cost of the car getting rid of my Evo IX MR for a Skyline.

    Those types of finance companies normally only cater to those who have plenty of money to throw away...offer longer terms but have higher interest rates.

    Believe it or not, many specialty finance companies offer QUITE competitive rates. Normally unless you are financing through a primary finance company, ie. ford, Nissan, Mercedes. The best rate you can get on a used car is about a 7.25% rate. Keeping in mind a credit union may do a slightly lower rate. All in all however normally those specialty finance companies offer the same as if not better rates on cars, especially ones more then 3yrs old.


    Believe me gentlemen, I am not some punk kid who just saw FF2 and wants a Skyline. I am a grown man, making ample income to afford one. I have also done almost all of the necessary research before posting here. My reason for posting is because I am about ready to procure one and was trying to figure out the best method to do so. Thanks for all the help.
