Vrooom!

Seriously, I rule.  Not in a fascist dictator kind of way either (although I'm keeping that open as an option).  I've been looking around at cars lately and not really finding anything that particularly piqued my interest.  So, last night we headed down to Liberty Honda to scope out the used Hondas.  After scouring the parking lot for quite a while and finding only 'nice cars' that I don't really feel like paying for, we found it.  The oldest and ugliest car on the lot.  Well, it is an '00 Civic, so its not that old.  Its not even ugly.  Its just not one of the newer, shiny used cars.  So, I found a sales person and we took it for a test drive.  Ehhh, whatever.  I mean, its a goddam civic.  I didn't expect to be blown away.  The price he quoted me was a bit more than I wanted to spend so I told him so.  He asked what I was looking to spend and I undercut his quote by $2000.  Upon returning to the dealership he checked out my offer with his boss and he knocked $1500 off the original offer.  I said 'cool'.  Put down a deposit and left. 

Today I check Kelley Blue Book on the value of the car with the same mileage and options.  The Blue Book value is five dollars less than what I'm getting it for.  I totally rule. 

Pretty much this, but in 'Pimp Black'.

Good news!  Everything went through with the bank.  Apparently I have near-perfect credit.  Who knew?!? Just waiting for my insurance agent to fax them my info and I'll be tooling around CT in a few hours.

Sweet Ryan, congrats again, new cars are the best.

Your credit is "near perfect" now you should keep it that way.  I have been rebuilding my credit for over the last 4 years, some people have no idea how important good credit is.  I was a 455 now I am like a 680, close to being able to get a good interest rate on a car/house!
