Trigger has been pulled

[LAN]

After some unforseen circumstances with scoober's car, we decided to pull the trigger and trade in his Subaru.



2002 Saab 9-3 SE, navy blue with tan leather interior. Certified pre-owned with 70k or 3 more years of bumper to bumper warranty. It had one owner, who leased the car. The best part is that it's a manual and it hauls ass.

Nice!

I randomly pulled the trigger on a new Audi A3 order to replace the '89 Honda. The guy even sold it to me at invoice which is amazing given there aren't any at my local dealer and the thing just came out. Really fast/fun car...

Was going to go used as we did on Mrs. Comish's car, but then did the math and with the amount of miles I'm going to drive, resulting term I would keep said used car, invoice pricing, etc this worked out quite a bit better.

Now starts the excruciating wait...

Now Ocean Blue

Which engine?

Oh, and it's a great car. I really enjoyed driving it. And it's freaking solid as well. drove off the motorway at around 130 km/h and rolled a few times on the side, only bent bodypanels (almost all of 'em) and no damage to me. Well I did get a fine (fuckers...) for driving while being sleepy, which was the reason a crashed btw.

Of that I am, but for the pOlice writing me a ticket, well that's another story... I would think that making a wreck out of (my dad's) car would be enough, but no they still wrote a go*damn ticket.

Oh, the car tried to go forward after the "incident", but it was stuck from the bottom (finished my rolls when the car went through a roadsing and ended up on it's tyres). But as stated darn rugged cars (as I didn't even get a scratch) or I was super lucky (which isn't the case all that often).

The ticket was because you obviously can't grasp the fact that falling asleep at the wheel can result in people other than yourself being killed, dumbass!

You should check out ScanWest Autosports in Greenwood for service. (not sure if it's compatible with your warranty, but those guys kick ass) I don't generally feel the need to plug other businesses, but I've been super happy with them when I've taken my old Saab there.

It has the 2.0L HOT (205 hp), also manual shift. Really frickin fun car. My brother has a '96 900s, hit a frickin deer, gets it totalled out for more than he paid for it, and it is still running strong at 105k. Not anywhere near as gnarly as your story, but damn these are tough cars.

I'm chomping at the bit to take delivery on the car. Swedes rule.

I am beginning the process of getting a new car. I test drove the A3 and was please with the ride. I also tried the new Maxima and finally saw the new Passat (hope to drive one within the next couple of weeks). Between the Maxima and A3 I'd probably get the A3. What it lacks in practical space it makes up with the engine (DSG is very smooth) and the ride. I liked the Maxima, but it was not as fun to drive as the A3 even with the much more powerful engine.

The car won't be ready until Monday at the earliest.

I suppose we'll just drive the shit out of the 9-5 loaner.
