That New Car Smell

Today turned out to be quite an interesting Monday. Steven has been mulling over buying a new car (pre-owned, but new to him) ever since he paid his car off back in July. He'd been looking at the Mercedes CLK430s, but wasn't sure if he wanted to upgrade (he had a C230). The salesman called today and, since it was the end of the month, they were able to reach a good deal using his car as a trade in, so now we've got this gorgeous silver 2002 CLK430. It's a pimped out model with the navigation system, electric every thing, dual climate controls, laser encoded key, integrated phone system; basically, the works. It's too dark to take pictures, so I'll have to get some tomorrow. It's a super sweet car. It's always so exciting to get a new vehicle!

It doesn't compare to a Merc but I am really excited that last night we bought a VW Van that we are going to use to go camping in!

Oh cool! I have a mid-eighties mercedes, but one of these days, like when I get a job, I'd like to upgrade to one of these. Make sure to take a picture of yourself in the mirror!

I still can't believe he didn't have them add on the gold trim. *wink* Just kidding! Steven is wayyyy too classy for the total pimpmobile look!

Take pictures! :)
