whatever you do, don't let it get reposessed or voluntarily give it up. Your credit will be ruined for 7 years and you will still have to pay the difference between what they sell the car for vs. what you owe on the loan. If you don't owe that much more than it's worth try trading it in on a cheaper car and roll the difference onto your new loan. You'll be paying for it longer but your payments will probably be a lot less. Or sell it yourself (you'll get a lot more) and pay the difference to the finance company out of your pocket. If you owe a lot more than it's worth you're just going to have to suck it up and make the payments. If you don't you will regret it.

You live in Florida you bought used car with an APR of 16 high monthly payments you have had the car for a year and you can not afford payments anymore Without ruined credit how can you get rid of car?

You have to sell the car. If you give it back, it will still look as a repossesion...a voluntary repossesion. You do not want someone to take over the payments,as there is no guarantee that the payments will be made on time. Sell the car or try to refinance the balance, it is the only way. Good Luck..
