I finally got it! A new, blue, VW Beetle Convertible!!! I’ve wanted this car FOREVER and now I own it. So excited.
The buying process was really smooth, although it took soooooo long. I’m really not sure why it always takes HOURS to buy a car, but no matter what dealership you go to, it seems like it’s always a whole lotta waiting, right?
It was worth it, though. My new car is a 2008, but it’s new, because I’m the first owner. It only has 128 miles on it, and it’s so nice. I love that I got a great deal on it because it’s a little bit old, but that I’m the first one to drive it. It is such a smooth ride, and I think it’s just such a fun car. Not only that, but the payments are quite a bit less than I was paying for the CR-V that I was leasing. And I’m not leasing this one, I’m financing it, so in 60 months, it’ll be mine all MINE! Gotta love that!
The thing I’m happiest about is that I did this all on my own. This is the first time I haven’t had a co-signer, and I’m so proud of myself. My credit history hasn’t been very good in the past, but I’ve slowly and painstakingly rebuilt it, and now it’s inching its way up. It feels so good to have done this by myself, without anyone else’s help. This car really does feel like a symbol of how much I’ve changed my life; in every aspect.

One other awesome thing about this new car? Owning a convertible is item #4 on my Life List, and now I can check that one off! So exciting!!!
Super cute! Congrats! I’ve had two convertibles in my life and feel so lucky…although I’m longing for #3…not sure it’s functional in Chicago!
I know, I feel so lucky, too. I’ve always wanted a convertible, since I was 16 and first got my license. I’m so happy that I’m finally experiencing it now.
As for the sky diving, you’ll just have to make a trip out to see me in California and we can do it together. Maybe next summer!!!
I’m Jealous! I need a new car BAD! Congrats on your purchase…
Cute, cute, cute! I just bought a new car too. I’ve been driving the same car for 10 years. Doesn’t it feel great? I bought a 2009 CR-V. The only negative is that now my window will roll down which makes it easier to go through the drive-thru. The window in my old car didn’t work and it was too much trouble to actually have to walk in Krispy Kreme.
