We were looking at VWs, and as it turns out they're coming out with a new Passat, so we can get a good deal on an 'old' Passat, which wouild make it the same price as a New Jetta.
I'm just not sure what to do..presuming we even decide to make such a huge investment in a car.
Also, do you know about those 'driver's Option' programs? Where you make payments for 3-4 years lower than a lease, higher than a finance, and then at the end you can turn it in, pay a balloon payment or refinance the rest. Is there a catch to this? Because if we did this, we'd have pretty low payments for now. it seems kind of ideal because in 3 years, after the wedding, we'll have more money to pay the rest....
And did I mention we have a $500 deposit on an elantra we're supposed to be picking up today?

Re: Another car question..Scott? anyone?
I love the look of the passat too and my mom owns one, but I have to say that I loath driving it. The blind spots are awful. The way the car tilts up in the back makes it hard to see. I would testdrive it a few times to make sure you are comfortable with it. I still think it is a great looking car with a lot of wonderful features, but IMHO they need to work on the back windows and make them at a better angel. But if it works for you, then great.

Well when you add the final payment to the payemtns you make for 36 mos, it always end sup being more, but that's due to interest. I checked out my pyaments and balloon payment and it all seems on the up and up.
So did you get the Elantra? Scott

I don't want to jinx anything, we're waiting for financing to come through. But we'll be driving a car big enough for baby seats tomorrow if all goes well!
