I got a used 250 for 22K with 45,000 miles. I gave 2,000 down payment and my monthly payments are 550 a month. However, I pay more than I am suppose to and now I only owe 12K. My next payment is not due until 2013. BTW, I just bought it in August this past year.

i prob sound like a broken record, but u can get an 08 ISF with < 30k miles for 36k-38k so just consider that before plunking down almost 40k for an IS250. You'll lose less on depreciation too

hmm, why are you paying 550 a month on only 20k? How long was your loan for? And if you gave them extra $, You should have had them take it off your principle so you'd save $ in interest. It sounds like all you did was pay your payments in advance which negates to benefit of financing.
