OTOH, Having A Car Again Will Be Quite Nice, Really

[theodosia]

So, um, Friday I seem to be buying a 2005 Subaru Forester....

Feeling somewhat amazed. I wasn't rushed or anything, but the having committed myself still makes me go O.o....

Yay! Go team you!

Yay! The Subaru is a great vehicle. Whee!

Jealous. Well, maybe not. I tried out a Forester (in 2000) and decided for the Golf, but it was a close thing. Been eyeing the 2005. Nice baby.

Colors?

[theodosia.livejournal.com]

Grey -- closer to a darker than a lighter grey. It also has a kind of rubber panel all around the lower 1/4 of the car, which should help with possible dingage. It's the kind of car that people refer to as handsome rather than pretty... much as though an SUV and a station wagon had had a baby together.

I know nothing about cars, but go you for having wheels again!

Cogratulations! A decision is a good thing. And Subarus have a very good rep.

You are going to LOVE it. Enjoy!

I was going to comment with this the other day when you first mentioned a Forester, but you know. :g: I'm pretty sure that nowlive has one. She loves hers. I know she has a Subaru. She nudged me to look at them when I was trying to find a new car. Congratulations on your new vehicle. Scary, isn't it? :g:

It's not like your life hasn't been more than enough exciting and busy this week, what with the hurricane, and dealing with the aftermath....

Yay for you! I'm so excited. When do I get a ride? (Probably when I get my ass over to help in your basement again :))

[theodosia.livejournal.com]

Anytime! I owe the universe at large a couple of rides to make up for all the driving help I've received over the past few weeks....

Yippee! Do you have a VIN? I can look it up for you on CarFax.

[theodosia.livejournal.com]

Yep, I have it here. ::waves paper:: But since it's a new car with 247 miles on it, is there any utility in looking it up on Carfax? I don't want to put you to extra trouble....

Enjoy it!
