Well, ignoring every different opinion is as stupid as it can be. Looking for applause all the times is for spoiled children.

Well I am moving on... thanks for looking.
I newer told you that you should go for a different one. That's what I would do. I am not so afraid of "headaches".

Of course if you are looking only for approvals its quite a different story. You will get a lot of "nice car" and "send more pictures" of all the same car. Enjoy.

There is always "that guy" on every forum......

Very presumptuous to think I did not explore other options and then choose the one that makes the most sense to me and my family. Having a clean low mileage one owner car with the options I want is worth whatever I am willing to spend. 2.9% APR played a part as well.

I certainly was not asking for your approval, I could care less. I did get some relavent questions about the car, comparisons to my 04 and a few private messages about the process. So for that, glad I posted. Dealin wih the forum "Village Idiot" just goes with the public forum territory.

And yes, I am a spoiled 47 year old kid......life is good!!!!

Yes, with the same if not more options. With 45,000 miles but hey, 45,000 miles compared to 10 grand saved is the "better plan" and "better car" in my book. But you may be rich and and maybe 10 grand to me is like 1 dollar to you. lol

But look man, i'm not trying to knock you. It's definitely a nice ride and clean. I'm sure the reason why all of us post pics/details of our new cars here on the forums is so we can get high fives/congrats and approvals from everyone right?

You decided to post the price you paid, which introduced the discussion of finances. You wouldn't mind if everyone said "hey man, you raped that dealer, you got a steal!!" I'm sure you would feel good, even if folks were lying.

It's good to know whether or not we overpay or underpay for something like a car. No one on here is jealous or hating on you. It's just good discussion to know especially if you want to sell the car or trade it in a couple of years you are aware of the depreciation rate compared to what you paid for it.

As you may see from the quote I was not talking to you. Or you think everybody should do just that?

Unfortunately this is "the public forum territory" and you may stumble at "Village Idiot" or "That guy". Hi may tell you something you don't wont to hear. Life is not that good.

I've been neglecting this forum for a while, but it's nice to see Misha is still the curmudgeonly grandfather figure to the members.

Nice car, Satch. Too bad it isn't BLACKER. Actually if it was any blacker it'd be a black hole (from which no light can escape). Looks like "Mr. Vader, your car is ready".
