Car loan question(credit wise)

Have around $1900 left to pay on my car.

Do I pay it off cash and close the loan or keep the monthly payments until Dec to build credit?

not enough info to answer

What’s your interest rate?

If it’s below 4 I’d not pay it off. If it’s above 5 I’d pay it off. Between 4 and 5 flip a coin

Interest is 3.99%. I wouldn't mind being done with it but also the payments are cheap and it could help my credit so I heard.

pay it off to clear the history

EDIT

At this point you're paying the principal (APR is already covered) so your credit wont change either way?
Depends on the contract as well. If you cant end it without penalties then keep it
