Hi Everybody,

I'm not nearly as active here as I was back on the RX-7 Forums (real life has taken over; Job, House, Wife, Kid, etc.) but I just wanted to share that yesterday, on my 2 year anniversary of taking my RX-8 home, I wrote the final check to the bank to pay it off, so it will truly become "mine". My wife and I will hopefully be able to go a few years now with no car payments as her car and my truck were paid off in the past few years.

My 8 is bone stock, and going to stay that way, but to celebrate I'll likely give her a nice bath and detail the interior.

I have personally put 20,000 miles on it in the past two years, and look forward to many, many more.

Stay in school kids, and save your money... financial independence is pretty great!

Cheers!

congrats !

now don't go spend ur spare cash to mods ... save them up.

 

time for some new plugs and fluid change.

 

Congratulations to you! On mine, i bought the rx8 on April of 2007 with a 6-year payment plan, and i'm happy to say that next month would be the last payment!!!

 

paid mine off, it's a great feeling, now it sits and waits for spring and mods.

 

wish mine was paid off i just bought her XD
Congrats though

 

wow, i still owe 6k on mine

 

Congrats! it always feels good to pay off such a big investment like buying a car. I personally celebrated paying off my 8 by buying a mazdaspeed 6.. do'h...

 

Well done, it's a great buzz. I'm keeping mine stock too (at least I think so) maybe it's a sign of age??? I noticed the bike in your list, the RX 8 feels the closest I've had to riding a bike, love the feel. Again, Congrats.

 

paid mine off a month ago as well. 1 year

 

Paid cash for mine back in sept of 07

 

It's a good feeling to pay off a car. The financial freedom is a great feeling. Paid mine off in December after 5 long years of payments, a year and a half of which the car wasn't even running haha. That part felt like torture!
