And drove this off the lot instead!!

Redfire GT
manual transmission
IUP with My Colors
charcoal leather
Shaker 500
17" bullits (sp?) =(

It took 6 hours at the dealership (tons of financing problems and insurance problems). My bank was closed and I didn't like any of their rates, so they said I could "borrow" it till Monday when I come back with a check from my bank. Well, what really happened is that I financed it through them at a bad rate, but they are going to tear up that contract when I come back with my loan from my bank on Monday.

I ordered a Geico policy, but it wasn't active till tomorrow, so they wouldn't let me drive off the lot with it. I had to call Geico and get them to fax stuff over that says I'm covered as of "immediately". That took forever.

I told them about the bad experience I had at their dealership 3 months ago and they gave me this one for MSRP...=)

Either way, it was dark when I finally drove off with it, so sorry for the bad pics.

Yall are right about the grin, I can't wipe that darn thing off my face..=)
