They totalled it out...and they're giving me enough to pay off the rest of the car, and I'll have enough for a down payment. I'm going to have a clean slate to look for a car...9/10 i'm going to get the same car, but in manual, and MAYBE a new color...

I always think of THIS scene from Me, Myself, and Irene whenever this thread title pops up on the Last Post column.

Good luck with your next car BlackRX82006

Probably can find a cheap used one since the market is good for 8 buyers.

That was way too fast. Even if your father is a lawyer, odds are you could have held out for more.

But hey, congrats on the new car and not having to go thru the hassle I had to with my wifes car.
