I got a new car!
And
bad_acid , I know what you're thinking, I was pretty dead set on the Genesis, but there was only one dealer 45 minutes away that had one on the lot.
I'm really excited, I now have free oil changes/regular maintenance, iTouch hook up, bluetooth capabilities, and an extended warranty that covers 100% of rim/tire replacement (speaking from prior experience, them bitches are EXPENSIVE to replace). All this for cheaper than what I was paying before for my '08 Jetta. It is still a lease, but now that I have a permanent address that's much closer to work than what I was doing on my old car, I think it'll be a better fit. They also took over the remaining payments I had on my prior lease for no extra charge. All in all I'm happy!
170 bhp, 177 lb-ft, 6-sp Automatic, 21/31 mpg, 5 passengers, 2.5-liter, 5-cylinder engine
Not as fast as I'd ultimately want, but then again maybe that's a good thing!
