If you can get a good interest rate, go for it, if it dont work out sell it and move on. Life is to short!!
If the goal is to make money, buying a Cobra on credit ain't the way to do it. If the goal is to just have fun with a Cobra while you can, then by all means buy it on credit. Yes, you are pi$$ing money away on interest -- that's absolutely undeniable. But more people than not would probably say that just buying a Cobra with cash is pi$$ing money away. So there is an argument to be made that it really doesn't matter in which direction you pi$$ your money -- it's still pretty much gone regardless.
