Our New Mazda3

Posted in Personal on December 1st, 2008

Some of you might know that my daily driver was totaled on Monday. This doesn’t mean that I rolled the car, it just means that it was going to cost more to repair the car than the car was worth. So in a frantic, yet solid state of mind, me and the wife went to work car shopping.

We did a lot of it on the internet. We also went to work trying to get loans. Getting loans is good and bad. The more people that look at your credit, the worse it could be for you. You really need to know what you want or have in mind, before you start allowing your credit to be pulled by every Tom, Dick, and Hairy.

We found on on Friday night. We went buy the Mazda dealership, I stopped in on Wednesday to test out an Mazda3 2006, and I liked the car. I talked to the wife about it and we were going to look at it on Friday night. I got a call from a guy named Alex and said that a new car might be the better deal for us. So looking and comparing, we decided to go with a 2008 4-door Mazda3 5-speed. There are no bells on this car. Just a zoom-zoom sound. Well their is the aux-jack for your mp3 player, but nothing else is power on the car. It really has a nice feel to it.

Because I didn’t take images of the wrecked one. I’m posting images of the new one.

I Heart Contest, I hope that you spend these wisely. I just did the transfer.
