Tick Tock
Jen has been through an excruciating week of me whining incessantly over car shopping. Relief arrived with the mail on Saturday in the form of the final Harry Potter book. That should hold my attention until the current crop of Subaru incentives expire on Tuesday. The August incentives should kick in the following Monday and hopefully there will be a juicy rebate on 08s.
My parents were convinced I would have bought something by now, but I am stretching a bit to try to get this car. My view is, if Jen and I are going to take on another car payment, the vehicle has to be perfect. My quest for the perfect vehicle/price combination has frustrated everyone around me (even the dog) and I am seriously contemplating just buying a Honda Civic to get the ordeal over with.
The story would be quite different if there was more interest in the Eclipse, however after a week on the market I have received a discouraging email and a single, barely intelligible phone call. If the Eclipse sells for a decent price, I can stop searching in vain for someone to list a used Legacy GT with some sanity, and tell one of the patient sales folks I have been emailing to gas up an 08 for me.
