I'm pretty sure she is going to take it back to the dealership, only because I was there today looking at cars and was telling him about my situation, and he was like, yeeeaaa your mom and dad were down here yesterday.

They did mention they were going to sell it...

So tomorrow I have to go 45 mins away to make the inital payment on a white 06, then they are going to search for the option/color package I want...

I want either Copper Red, Galaxy Grey, or another black, 6 spd auto (i love manual but Id get in too much trouble with it, plus i like having the other hand to hold onto the wifey), I think the GT package (18", xenons, moonroof).

Cant wait

I do have to comment that if a moderator closes a thread down, it should stay that way. It does not make it alright to go start another thread on the topic with a disclaimer. It doesn't work that way. The thread ended and that's it whether you agree that it should have or not. This one should go no further.

Actually it's more about your personal and financial woes.

I don't wanna reopen the old argument, but I wanted to chime in. I got my current car (which was a new $20k car) when I was a senior in college. Before that I had been riding around in a POS Saturn (hence the username) and it died tragically. I probably should have gotten another beater and waited till I left college for a good car, but my mom offered to make payments on a nicer car so I went for it. When I got a job out of college, I took over payments, but we left it in her name because I didn't want to refinance and get a craptacular interest rate. To this day, the car is in her name (don't report me to the feds or something) and I just make payments.

My point is, there's a lot of people talking about responsibility and all that. Just because your parent helps you out because they're nice or you need it, doesn't mean anything. People can fall on hard times or get a little spoiled by their temporary good fortune. But when the crap hits the fan, you gotta keep things in perspective and remember that a car is just a car. Make good choices, plan ahead, and hope for the best. Good luck.

Well, it's all over!!!!!!

They didn't have Galaxy Grey, wait was 2 months, and I needed a car.

Ended up with a 06, White, fully loaded (gt package, navigation, spoiler etc.).

If I had a mom who would take "her" car back vindictively, I'd have much bigger problems than not having a car, now wouldn't I?

I love my mommy!

No, I really didn't.

KBB excellent value trade in was 19, 500 (only had 11000 miles, no marks what so ever), owed less than 19,000.

OK, so the way I read it, this matter is more or less over and done with, right? No reason to drag this on any longer.
