The car came in on Friday, a few days early, so I picked it up on Saturday after the dealer finished the tinting. After about 30 minutes of easy paperwork and a nearly 90 minute orientation to the car’s computer system, I was driving it home. Now I’ve had a few days to drive it around and thought I’d give you all an update.
I love it! It’s funny, because when I decided to get this car I was pretty much basing my decision on the entertainment/communication/navigation features, and also on its overall style. For me it was no different than buying a computer, I mostly looked at the electronics and the “user interface.” Honestly I never even took a test drive, just messed around with the computer and asked to make sure that the Bluetooth calling was compatible with my iPhone.
Well, to my surprise, I guess when you spend this much on a car you also get something that drives nicely, too!
It’s taking some time to get used to it actually, because it has so much more power than the old car. But it’s great, I love the acceleration and tight handling. It really is fun to drive.
Mostly I like having all the new features that the old car didn’t have…like sunroof, Bluetooth calling, satellite radio, iPod integration, navigation, voice activation, automatic climate, etc. Sure you can get those features in many cars, but this one matches my style perfectly and I couldn’t be happier!
I’m glad you’re happy with the purchase. It’s about time you started to realize you have to treat yourself a little. It’s a cute car, I’m happy for you.
I’m sure its nice, but its no Chevy Metro. Now thats a driving machine. And the features; A/C….(crickets).
It’s not cute… it’s HOT! I was waiting for you to mention the A/C too!
I LOVE your car. I really wanted to buy one (but, not as of yet..). I was hoping Jan. we could purchase one and have Manny pick it up in Germany but that’s not going to happen what with this whole house mess we’ve gotten ourselves into.
The T. Cam. will do for now.
Enjoy that new baby of yours, baby!
