Finally, the car.

I know what I said in my previous post. I did decide on the Mini Cooper, and was about to book it. Almost there. BUT, they have a 2 month plus lead time.. Imagine that! No car for 2 months after you order it. Blasphemy. So I tried everything. Calling up every dealer in Chcagoland, Cincinati, Milwaukee, and Detroit! NO MINI COOPERS ON THE LOT. Sucked. And then I gave up.

Walked in to the Honda Dealer (gave him a heads-up in the morning that he simply MUST save atleast one car for us for the day) and saw this baby. The only remaining car for the day. And until whenever the next lot came in. And it was love at first sight. Not the red I had imagined, not the sleek black, not boring greay or beige. A sleek and classy "Royal Blue Pearl". Sigh.. I test drove it, and decided then and there to take it!

Forget the hassles with financing. It was all worth it :)
