$16,971.58 is my current principal balance on my car. I’m hoping to stay ahead of being upside down, but you never know. I keep an eye on its Blue Book, NADA, and Edmunds values. I’ll make some extra principal payments if it gets close.
I didn't do the smartest thing when I financed (because I did a 72 month loan), but it could be worse.

Yep, I’m on a 72 month note on my 2016 3. I’ve started to do the same.

I just bit the bullet and paid off the remaining $8800 balance on my car.
The amount I paid monthly will just get used up someplace else :(

Deep Crystal Blue Mica. It’s a great color!

Good to see I am not the only one! I hope to have it paid off before the 72 months, but who knows. I plan to keep it a long, long time either way.

I have not even paid off my old loan yet. I carried over $1600, and so far have made 3 payments ($316/month).

My brother just picked up a Mazda 5 yesterday that color. It is a truly rad car! So awesome!

Yep! 72 is a popular term length.
I can’t believe some places offer 84+ months. Not a good idea.

There’s a USED lot that offers 96 MONTH term. Holy shit.

That was my first color choice for my 3 but finding a manual is difficult. Even for dealer employees.

the world needs more colors like that. Ford’s “Green Gem” is another good one. Mercedes-Benz, on the other hand, doesn’t seem to know what “color” is. These are the available colors on the S-Class:

A 6.
I upgraded from a 2008 3 hatchback. The 6 holds a baby seat better.

It’s actually our new Acura dealer’s used car lot.

Making payments on a 2006 mustang in 2024 makes TOTAL sense.
