Buy small things on credit card and pay off the balance each month. If you have bad credit from previous mistakes, look into credit repair services to begin the process of rebuilding your credit as you buy, and pay off, the small things as mentioned above.
Don't be in a hurry to accumulate large debt. In this economy, your best bet is to enjoy what you have for the next few months, see which way the economy is going, and decide later if you want a 4th gen. Look at all the cars for sale; F-bodies aren't going to suddenly disappear from the planet so shift your thinking more strategically for your own finances. With all the interest rate cuts its the right time to borrow, but the wrong economy to make any long term plans in. Who knows where the banks will be in 12 months?
Whatever your decision, good luck! I wish I had a running 3rd gen at the moment. :P
