Car thoughts update

I read some more reviews over small cars. The fit one over the new Nissan by just a bit. It was on CNN money's site. The Yaris seems to be the worst small car ever made since the Nova. Every review I've read of it has said, too slow, can't go over 70 and no room. The fit's stow and go seems to be winning people over like it did me months ago. Though I have read some personal reviews, some people have gotten the few bad apples that come when you buy a car, innevitably there's always one that somehow missed that quality inspection because Hideki Kasimo was on his lunch break bragging about his high score in Taka Kanaka the new Dance Dance Revolution game to hit the arcadiums.

Some have said the fits engine lacks the umph... granted anyone who buys a car with a 104 hp should realize HP sold seperately. I'm looking more at the matrix now than the Fit, mainly b/c toyota seems to be more flexible with their price. Nissan are jerks when it comes to negotiations, Honda is just, this is the price take it or leave it. While Toyota will give deals on interest rates and cash incentives and what not. Like now its a 4.9% interest rate on a 60monther and a 750 cash towards down payment. Granted I don't have that kind of cash flow to pay for a new car but if a windfall were to show up I'd probably go the matrix route right about now. Mainly b/c of the engine. Though a civic would be nice and stylish.

In other news, our baby is growing like a mug. She's getting so big and more animated by the day.
