I'm a guy and I hate buying cars. I bought a Saturn the 2nd year they were out because the price was what it was. No haggling. Drove it for 10 years and then bought a new Saturn Ion. Had the new Ion for 6 months and my teenage son totaled it. Drove through a telephone pole. I went to the crash scene and every single door on the car still worked perfectly after shearing off a pole and having the pole crash on the roof of the car. My son walked away wothout a scratch. He was wearing his seatbelt. The insurance paid off the car loan and I got a check for $32.00. Goodbye $5,000.00 down payment. I went back to Saturn and said your car saved my son's life I'll take another one but I don't have any money left. So, they sold me a used Saturn. An S car. Well, they called the next day and said the financing won't go through because there's not enough equity in the car. But we really want you to have a Saturn and so we're going to give you a better car, an L series, one year newer and less mileage for the same price. They said we'll bring it over to your house. I said, "Send it." I called my wife and she said, "What color is it?" I don't know what color it is I bought it over the phone.
