Sara's new car is here! It's amazing how quickly cars are made nowadays! We received emails along the process but we're still in shock the really short amount of time it took to go from framing to final inspection! We're glad though because although it got here ahead of schedule, we've been waiting since the last week of December for Sara's new car!
When we pulled up at the dealership it was sitting front and center and boy was it beaming white! It looked sharp but Sara was a little nervous about how white it was. It's just so different than the car she'd been driving for the past 10+ years so it takes Sara's mind a little getting used to. And she had to talk through it with whomever would listen to make sure she was getting the right color. In the end, she loved it and off to finance we went!
What an easy process it was!!! Seriously - that is the way car buying is supposed to be done. A big thanks to our friends Julie and Bobby for introducing us to their cousin Tino who allowed us to use his friends and family discount! The Costco program ended up being $75 cheaper (thanks Brian for the last minute number crunching) but the dealership wanted to use the Friends and Family plan to show people use it but still discount us the $75 (or at least Sara thinks that is how it went as she writes this post...she was a bit dazed about her new car to really focus too much on the details :)) She did however negotiate on the warranty on the car so we feel great about not having to worry about any defects, oil changes, other maintenance for 4 years!
Sara got to drive it home and it felt like a dream! The car is amazing...everything we wanted it to be! And how cute is this?

Matching white cars!! Although we still have the same license plates, the garage looks a bit different than when we first moved here less than two years ago.
And now that Sara has her new car, her old car is a distant memory. Time to make new memories in her brand new car. Trevor wanted to know where the TV was in her new car, but we reminded him that we love to talk and play I Spy during our car rides!
Eek!!!!!!!! So exciting!!! If you see Sara on the road, be careful. She is the pokey one in the right hand lane. :)
