Hmm... See, I'm faced with an interesting dilemma. I've talked about it before, but my car is currently a corporate lease that is a benefit for my dad. It's a sweet deal, but he is fast tracking his retirement and is going to retire in less than a year. I'll have two choices, buy it or turn it in.
I've done the math and buying it (plus having to insure it) is going to end up costing more than I'm paying now, which doesn't sit right with me even though I know the deal was amazing and that's why it can't be matched. So I'm stuck. Right now, I have a car fund that is dogeared for a future classic/restomod. To get a favorable loan on the 86 I will probably have to dip into it, which will set me back, but if my payments are low enough on the 86 then I can just accelerate my savings and get it all back quick enough.
Or, I can abandon the restomod idea, cram as much money into the fund as I can until my dad retires, and then give the 86 back and try to buy something even cooler. If my payment is going up no matter what, I might as well take advantage and potentially get something nicer.
