Im curious to see wether people around the globe buy a car by paying cash, or by getting the car financed, or even leased, or whatever.
I own my car luckily

You cant lease used cars. Maybe you meant financed?
I took out a 6 month loan to pay for mine; 3 yrs ago. So I own it. This post has been edited by Supersprynt: Oct 29, 2004 - 7:46 AM -------------------- |

finance baby. i paid cash for my 86 corolla, but since then my cars have been to expensive for me to pay cash. $20,000 for my new(er) civic and when that got totaled, i paid off the loan with the insurance money and within 2 days found my celica and jumped on it with another loan. no time to save. i have to have a car. i cant live without one. i bought my first car 6 months before i was able to drive it.

im happy to see that most of you guys got the car by paying cash :-)
the reason why i wondered, is because when you get the car on a loan, how are you ever gonna get the mods to get payed for? |
