$3k markup on the Shelby, losing $1.5k on the Camaro (yes, I know it had a lot of miles) <-- Those things are bad. Never pay above MSRP; that's ridiculous. You say you put down $2k cash and that covers the $1.5k you lost on the Camaro so you won't be paying it in Interest, but that's a very self-serving way of thinking. Sorry dude, in actuality, you could've used that $2k to pay off more of your loan and be less in debt. Now you're just more in debt.

That is all just financially speaking. I think you made a very poor financial choice.

However, the GT500 is a gorgeous car and I'd love to have one one day. Wouldn't give up my Camaro for it, but it's still a great car. Hope you enjoy it.
