well, i was tired of of owning 2 crappy old cars. especially imports, after a while it just gets old. i mean they’re super reliable and very high quality for a low price, but i was just getting sick of how old my cars were. i wanted to fit in finally. plus with everything ive been hearing on the news about gm and chrysler having tons of problems i finally decided to do my part, and help out a good cause. so today i went out to fuccillo chevrolet on grand island (they have some AWESOME deals going on right now) and picked up my new to me car. its not exactly what i wanted, but it’ll do. it’ll be good for a few years for sure. i traded in my gti on it, (and junked le cackord :()they only gave me $1000 off of the price of my new car, but when all was said and done i talked the guy down a lot, and that reduced the sales tax (plus they dropped a few fees) so here it is… ![http://images.cars.com/supersized/DMI/194115/4256.jpg](http://images.cars.com/supersized/DMI/194115/4256.jpg) my new-to-me victory red 05 cobalt ls! im really not the biggest fan of it, but like i said, it’ll do for now. i was really hoping i could find one that was 5 speed, but sometimes you have to settle with what the good price on something is. and let me tell you, i stole this thing! got a great deal, a great rate, and im finally back in a domestic car! i figured why not, you know? all of the cars ive owned (both import and domestic) have been crappy and old, so i decided to pony up and purchase a newer car! first car ive bought that was over $3200! lmk what you guys think! thanks ---
