Hooray! Jon and I finally found a car that we can buy! It's a broken little car, but that's why I'm so glad that Jon is so talented when it comes to automotive repair. For those of you who didn't know, Jon used to work for an auto collision repair shop, so he is a professional autobody repairman! It's really come in handy, because the accidents that car-which-shall-not-be-named was is were all repaired by Jon! Plus we're getting a really nice car at a fraction of the price because it's broken and he's gonna fix it! :)
So the new car is a 2007 Mazda3. It's black with black leather seats (I know, sounds like a summertime sauna!), and it has the stereo controls on the steering wheel as well as seat warmers! It needs a bit of work - all on the passenger side of the car. It will need at least new front and rear bumpers, new passenger headlight and taillight, back windshield, passengerside quarterpanel, a new antenna, and some dents fixed. When we're done we'll have repainted the majority of the car (again, I'm so happy to have such a talented husband!) which means we can paint it any color we want. After painting El Diablo earlier this year, I'm not even nervous about helping!
Anyway, if you'd like to see it (for the time being), you can go to http://www.getwwa.com/vehicle_details/5216/MAZDA/MAZDA3. I just put the deposit down today, and we should be getting our loan approved within the next day or two (takes longer when you don't work the same schedule!) and then the car is ours! Once we get it I'll post some pictures, along with our progress as we fix it! :)
Well that's all for now!
