New Whip
So, I'm thinking about getting a new car. I went and test drove a 2006 Honda Civic EX last night. It was super cool! I'm really thinking about signing my life over to the dealership in a few weeks. I don't know if you guys have seen the redesigned 2006 model, but it is frickin' way cool. Plus I need a new car really bad because: a) my 1990 Geo Metro has 215,000 miles and is going to break any day now and b) I need to get a brand spankin' new frickin' whip to make me somewhat happy about my life. :) Mostly A, but a little B in all honesty. So, I was wondering if any of you guys have heard anything bad/good about the 06 Civic. I've mostly heard all good things so far, but the car has only been available for about a month now so I don't know how many bad things there could be yet. Anyways, here are some pictures from last night.
I drove that white one in the background. It was a 5 speed manual and compared to my 16 year old 3-cylinder, it was a frickin' race car. I definitely fell for it.
That Si is sweet, no doubt, but You should consider what the monthly payments will be. I'd probably go for the LX and get a bunch o' options. That's a sweet lookin car though either way. 
Its about 17,000. The person I talked to said that I don't have to put any money down at all, but I would like to at least put down a few thousand so I can save a few bucks on the payments. The problem is that my current car is like a ticking time-bomb and I don't want it to crap out on me in the middle of the winter. I think I'm going to shoot for the second week of February.
I also want to go to some different Honda dealerships and give them estimates from each other to see if they are willing to out-bid each other.
I'm pretty convinced that I'm going to get this car.
Nope. I probably should because I'm all about efficiency. Do you think they are more expensive?
