I bought a new car!!!!

That's right!!! The rain let up for a few hours and I was able to roam the car lot and test drive. Within an hour I had picked out what I wanted. I was so excited! I just couldn't act too excited because I needed them to bring down the price. They started out wanting 17,000 dollars. It's really nice and has a ton of extras on it. However, I knew I didn't want to pay that much for it.
 
Finally after some wheeling (haha) and dealing we got them down to 12,900!! It was near the end of the business day so tomorrow morning their writing up the final paper work and I sign at 2:30 once I get off work. I'm SOOO excited!!! 
This is my car...except it's black. Don't worry, I'll take a ton of pictures tomorrow with me in it!!!!

It's a 2009 Kia Rio Lx. It only has 8 miles on it and I put 2 of them on it. It's got all the cute features: keyless remote entry, sat radio, power locks, windows and mirrors. Cruise control, cd player, mp3 hook up. I'm pretty excited!

I'm getting so excited for you here! I remember the flush of glee when I bought my car that I have now. I got a pretty good deal on it as well and that was so exciting! We girls love what we love on sale, ha ha! But dang girl, you have a butt load of features! I'm so jealous about the mp3 hook up;) So happy for you and take pictures for sure!

Ooh, I just pictured this car in black in my head, but yours looks amazing nonetheless! The keyless entry is definitely a good thing for security. It lessens the risk of someone breaking into your car without setting off an alarm. Also, what a great price you got on it! All that negotiation definitely paid off for you!
