New car!!!

So I've been trying for about two weeks now to buy a new car. Unfortunately, with the economy the way it is, car salesman are more shark/weasel-like than ever. I knew what car I wanted and what color I wanted, and multiple sales people tried to convince me that it was nowhere to be found, and that I should just buy the car on their lot. One guy even got angry when I told him I wouldn't, and followed me out of the dealership yelling at me for wasting his time! My other problem is that because I don't know a lot about the car business, I was being a bit of a pushover when it came time to start talking numbers about any of the cars.

Well, finally last night I got my act together, put on my "business Katherine" face (as boyfriend calls it) and went to the Norm Reeves Honda dealership. I told them what I wanted and what my budget was, and after about 30 minutes of negotiating and running numbers and various deal twisting, we did it! Got me the car I wanted for the price I wanted! They are detailing it as I write this and I'll be able to pick it up at lunch today! I'm so excited :) I'll post pictures as soon as I have them. It's a CR-V with Navigation and bluetooth, along with a slew of other awesome features.

SO EXCITED!!!!!!
