Default Never guess what i did!!!

Well lets see where to start. Well my GF has a 2000 Blazer that has alot of small minor problems that I didnt want to deal with and she was getting tired of it so. We started to look at other cars but i not believing in car payments as some of u know was looking in the range of $5K. But we stopped at the VW dealership on Monday cause we had been looking at used ones online well she fell in love with theNew Bettle Convertable Triple White Edition but i convinced her how hard that would be to keep clean so we came home. She was kinda sad so i searched online to see if any dealerships had any leftover 2006s left well the SAME dealer did have a Reflex Silver and Grey Interior! So i told her yesterday well u might not even like them so lets go test drive one. She all we are doing is test driving i said yes cause we hadn't eaten all day and it was 4pm so we drove up and drive it. Well she drove it first and loved it but didnt drive it long cause at this point neither of us expected to buy it so then i drove it and liked it. And i started to think well its summer and if we are going to get one this will be the cheapest one we will find.So a few hours later I left the dealership alonein the A4 and she left in our new 2006 VW New Beetle Convertable. MSRP was 25,555 purchase price was 20,295It was late so the pics arent that great but I'll post them anyway and get some better ones this weekend!

Good Job.

I used to only buy used cars with miles and pay cash etc, but when I began college I honestly couldn't afford (timewise) to work on a car or have it break down on the way to an exam. Secondly,that first trouble-free 70k miles is worth the money.

Congratulations,
Blue

Beetles are good cars for the money. They're definately better than Blazers because that's all we had with ours was problems

For the money u act like it was cheap! For what is basically a two seater (no room in the back seats) list price was $25,555 but since it was a leftover and we got the internet price and some good talking on my part the final price was 20,295 plus taxes and tags.
