Used Mini Cooper S My car has 10k in negative equity, what to do?
I traded in my 2008 Scion TC for a Used 2004 Mini Cooper S. The Mini has always been my dream car so I went for it and ended up in 3k negative equity. With taxes, fees and negative equity It came out to about 10k more than I bargained for. 1st question: What can I do to get out or better this situation? 2nd question: The value of my car is 24000 and I owe 30000. Is there any bank crazy enough to refinance me for a 7 year loan? I really want to keep this car but I cant keep up with $500 payments. And I don't want to trade it in again because that is financial suicide for me. What to do?
and yes I admit this was a stupid stupid mistake.......
The only thing you can do now is bite the bullet and keep paying on the Mini. Cut out everything that is not essential to your survival so you can make your payments. The worst thing you could do is have your car repo'd. That will destroy your credit for 7 to 10 years. You won't be able to finance a toaster during that time.
Your negative equity is far too much for any lender to help you. All lenders have stopped making 72 month car loans because we're in a recession. Money is extremely tight and getting long term credit is impossible. And unfortunately, you're stuck with the Mini for another 3 years before you'll be able to get out from under it.
Dire news. But it's the truth as to what you're facing.

Used 2009 MINI Cooper S Houston TX 77074
Should I get a used BMW z4 (2003) or a new Mini Cooper S?
Well, both are made by BMW, so good news! Each is a very nice car, but it all depends on what you want the vehicle for. Style, speed, classy, go with the Z4. If you plan on having to take people places, or needing the 4 seat and the practicality of the cooper, definitely go with that. Both are excellent cars, the z4 would be my choice just because I love their style. They aren't all that fast, and I am sure the Cooper S and z4 are not far off from overall acceleration. So basically, its up to what you are looking for in a car at this point in time .
