haha, yah, the V6 ones are $28-30K territory with some options for sure.
the base sedan 4banger with MT (not sure if MT is still offered) was like $18K, where as a comparable FitSport was $19.5K+

plus if they have sale and lease deals going on, you can get the payments very low. like $3K down <$250 or something for a 39month. i would also check out the Chevy Cruze if you're looking at economy sedans. the cruze has some options to make it look pretty nice.

I think Tax. She passed BEC earlier this year for the first time, which started her countdown again after letting two credits expire. FAR is the only one she hasn't passed at least once.

FAR is a tough one, that was the first one I got knocked out of the way, BEC was 2nd. SO just 2 more for me

NICE!!!

I actually lied, she is taking Audit next but not until a couple week into July. I was wondering about her decision to take FAR last... She got into trouble with BEC getting a 74, 69, and 73 in that order before finally passing it with a 75. Those few months were not very pleasant in our household

I have M-F job, but I tend to work weekends occasionally. What I really meant is that today is busy and I don't feel well. In fact, I am home now trying to get work done, but you guys are so distracting

Nice pics!

hey there, mr.alcheng!

actually your wheels look fine. you'd probably want to push out the rear another 10mm or so, but that's about all it would take, i think.
