Don't drive, not yet anyways. Supposed to get my license in Sept. But I own a 2003 Hyundai Sonata. I'm not facepalming at what you drive, I'm facepalming at the fact that you had of traded in the Altima and taken even more of a loss on it than you already did.

what do u drive? Shroomslip you cant talk because you don't even have a damn license. It sucks I got ripped off but I figure the loan and the warrantee, plus me having bad credit made me pay the price of a brand new maxima. I didn't make out that bad seeing as how I got gap insurance, a nice car and paid the sales tax. 22.5 MPG doesn't make me too happy, though. The 290 HP makes up for it a tad.
Edit: just ordered myself a 5 gallon drum of Torco octane boost. Getting windows tinted and 2 12 inch JL audio sub woofers installed with a touch-screen deck. Cant wait.

I don't need to have a license, own a car or a better car than you to point out you got ripped off.. That's just ridiculous. And it wasn't just me that told you not to trade it in and get ripped off even further, pretty much every one in that thread told you the same thing.
So yeah..

Well the way I look at it, I would rather get ripped off on a car I actually like and that's not going to make me want to kill myself year 4 of the payments.
So I should of kept the Altima at 23k than a maxima at 32k?

Dealerships are scum. I regret going to one big time, its just I was in dying need of a car, mine was about to fall apart. I didn't want a Honda accord, I know they are nice and awesome MPG and all, but its not luxurious enough for me. Also, not as much power. Im in my early 20s and have a son so im already sacrificing a lot. I never go out and party anymore, I don't hang out with friends hardly ever..etc so I wanted a "cool" car.
Once this thing is paid off, probably by year 4, im buying direct. Ill probably get the new style Altima, for they'll be cheaper in a few years.
I know I spent way too much, but its really pointless to stress about it. Got 18 grand left on my payoff, fuck it.
Anybody a fan of that Torco Accelerator stuff? Its supposedly the only octane booster that actually works.
How would I get a new deck installed seeing as how my maxima already has an in-dash monitor screen? Can they take that one out?

Hahaha. I used to do that same shit in the Georgia clay when I was about 16... In my Camry. You have no idea how many times my friends with trucks had to pull me out of the mud. If you take the panels off of the inside of the trunk there's still a bunch of orange dirt in there.

What you should NEVER do is finance a depreciating asset. That is a surefire way to never grow your net worth.
What you should do is spend the amount you can ACTUALLY afford on a car. If that is $8000, then get a nice used car that will be reliable. When you blow money you don't have on a car you can't actually afford, you're just raping your own finances in the ass.
In 4 years you could have saved $18 000, plus interest, and be EARNING 5-7% interest, rather than ending up at $0 net worth at the end and a slightly nicer car. Both cars drive the speed limit from point A to B reliably. Why waste all the money?

Maybe you should learn to drive. Sounds like you drive like your in a video game. 
You admit the roads are bad and you still get in an accident. If I was a judge I would say your admitting you knew the road conditions were bad and you still drove as usual. Hence, the verdict is it's your carelessness that got you in the accident. Your supposed to drive accordingly to road conditions. I really like it when people blame their accidents on the weather,etc.
For example: If there's 10,000 vehicles on the roads during bad weather and only a dozen get in accident. How can the accidents be really blamed on the weather. Shouldn't all 10,000 vehicles then be smashed up too? When it rains don't we all get wet the same. Weather my ass.
Blown speaker too? Sounds like your the type who plays loud music, texts on cell phone while driving.
I can't see how you go in that accident.
