Well, I know its dark... but I was excited to show you guys our new car!   Can you see it?!   It's not our dream car, kinda had to get the most dependable car we could afford... But it runs!  That's more than I can say for our old car!  (yes we are keeping the old grand am to fix it up...  I'm keeping my mouth shut )  So now we have a car!!!  wooohoooo!

I'll take a better picture tomorrow in the daylight, but its a darker silver honda civic... '04.

How exciting. Glad to see everything worked out. I am fearing the day my car dies. It smells like burning rubber and makes the most awful rattling noise.

looks really nice Kim! I would take it in a heartbeat! Is it a 6 cylinder? I want a honda sooooo bad, I think I am done with american vehicles after this one dies for good.

Nice car! I like the dark silver cars. They have a "richer" look to them I think. We looked at come Civics a couple months ago when we bought my new car, but they were a little more than I wanted to spend. Great mileage and they run forever!
Plus they look pretty good too! Nice choice Kim!

Very cute car Kim!  I drove the same Honda Accord for 18 years,  and I still miss it sometimes! I love Honda's cars.... and I needed very few repairs over 17 years I had my Honda. In 2002 I started having a constant dead battery problem (never figured out why it kept happening) and the last time it happened Bruce took me to work (and was suppose to be taking the Honda in to find out why the battery was dead again)... and when he came to get me at work, he surprised me with a brand new 2002 Chevy Tracker.   I really do love the Tracker with the dogs.. I can fold the back seat down and have room for haul crates for the foster dogs etc.  and I love sitting up higher than I did in the Honda... but if I ever go back to a "regular car" I would get another Honda!

Glad you were able to get it despite all the stress and hassles it took to get there.

well, I checked it out this morning again in the daylight... not to sure I like the window tinting... but its a cute little car The reason we were able to afford it was because it was a salvage. it was $7900. And when you look at this year of this car at a dealer its almost double that! It was in a minor car accident which is why it has a salvage title, but we got it all checked out at a mechanic and its history, so it should be good for a long time Plus Kevin is really good with cars, so he really checked it out... It just makes me nervous buying a salvage... which has added a lot to the stress, but... It's ours now!

oh, and thank you Jan I will always think of you now in that car! That is pretty cool! I didn't realize that until you said it!!

When I get a new car I wanna get a honda. I just need something with good gas mileage. I am so sick of it costing like 45 dollars to fill my gas tank.

Congrats, I like it. I would like a new car, but don't want the payment that comes with it. Mines almost ten years old, but still in good shape, so I'll keep it until it dies. Sounds like you got a good deal.

Wow!  Great deal Kim!  James was totally set against buying a salvage when we went shopping (guess he had a bad experience with one...) and that ruled out all the Honda's we were able to afford.  That's nice Kevin knows what he's doing- makes it so much easier and more comfortable getting a new car.

yay!  I finally saw it in the daylight today!   I hated the 4 doors at first because it didn't look as sporty... but their starting to grow on me!  It's actually pretty convenient when you go shopping and have lots of bags to put in the back
