I wish I would have just bought the 2004 Lancer Sportback Ralliart that I already had my mind set on... But no of course I had to swing by the 350z I liked first...

Don't feel too bad. Just read up on improving your credit score from here on out, it will get better. I never had a car payment in my life, then I up and bought a brand new 2017 GT350. Now that's a monthly payment... but...

Also, good thing you got the Z instead of a Lancer or you wouldn't be able to show your face here.

Oh... so probably should update this again for the last time.

Took the car home, noticed low oil pressure on the gauge after it's at operating temperature. Knew the sensor was a common issue and replaced it, no change in the reading.
Took it to the dealer I bought it at (Mazda/Mitsu) and they said "it's fine cause the oil light isn't coming on"... umm yeah I don't think so! Took it down the street to the Nissan dealer. They installed a gauge and verified it had 5psi at idle and 34psi at 2k rpm. Way below acceptable pressures. It then took the last four days of threatening legal action on the dealer and they finally gave me a check for my down payment and cancelled the contract. Fuck that car.
Guaranteed it was the two oil gallery gaskets yet they wanted to throw an oil pump in it and refused my advice. By Felecia.
Luckily I was within the AZ Lemon Law timeframe.

Wow, I was following this thread

Everything happens for a reason, right?
If this new incedent wouldn't have occurred, I would have just said big deal, make the payments and have fun!
Good thing you had the knowledge to know there was a problem, and you did what had to be done

Yeah, I was over the money thing and was just going to enjoy the car. Oh well.
