new to me MINI will be paid off tomorrow

Got my new to me MINI in November, 2012. Helped offset cost of fuel in my FJ.
MINI was financed, not exactly the best interest rate, but regardless, with a bonus, I paid it off about 33 payments early!
YAY!!!

Now I will have the funds to fix some of the little issues…cracked passenger mirror, remove HID foglight kit (they don't turn on), replace driver side tail light-have an LED bulb and it flickers…need to get brake fluid flushed as well as coolant…..

It's a great feeling, isn't it? I bought a new MCS in 7/11 and paid it in full in 5/13. Now it's almost time to take the equity and apply it towards a new '14 or '15 R58 JCW!

No car payment is definitely NICE!

Congrats, and good on you for engineering an early pay-off! I know that personally, paying off my MINI and knowing I owned it outright was one of the best feelings ever.
