Nope no husband.. actually Fiancee has over 100k in student loans.. while i have over 20k In different savings and mutual funds... but atleast his student loans are for chiropractic school and he is doing well in practice... but no would never ask him for a dime on my car...

I've got a not small Mustang payment and I'm considering cashing out my non-retirement stocks to also take on a mortgage for a condo. Double debt doesn't appeal to me, though.

i would off made payments on it since i qualified for .09 finacing since my credit is score 860.
I would be careful with doing what u are thinking about doing it could crash your credit score.. you need to see what the APRs are on each... send me a PM we dont need to be talking finacial stuff in this thread lol
you guys think the paint matched up good?

I think the painting was done very well. The strut brace is a bit too much in my book but it looks well painted. I would have considered painting the GT logo on the inside just as an accent, leaving the GT shiny and the strut brace gray, possibly just the bolt areas candy.
Also, if you were to tie everything in by matching the "." in 5.0 on the engine cover with the Candy Red, it would finish the entire look off. Sorry, I'm super **** about tiny details sometimes.
Edit: are there inner door handle latches that match the lock indicators? If so, get the handles to match. I hate the cheap plastic chrome handles. I like where your head is at though. Would have left the vent in the door unpainted but possibly painted the handle surround. See, there I go again, I'm not criticizing, just saying what I see in it.
