Shopping for a new car is not really all that fun. By Saturday night I was happy to have lots of choices to think about and options that are reasonable to consider. Basically now it's just time for negotiating and seeing who is willing to go the lowest. I'm looking at a used 2006 Prius and a new 2008 VW Beetle. Both are coming down to be about the same price and are getting closer and closer to the $15,000 price suggested to me by my oh-so-smart-and-beautiful financial planner. Don't know that I'll hit that price, but it's nice to see that I should be able to get what I want and still keep my monthly payments pretty low.
Bottom line, yeah...I'll probably go with which ever car is cheaper. I'm all about scamming those dealers and negotiating till I get just what I want...and so far, it seems to be working out just right.
More updates (and pictures!!) to come.

Sounds like you are doing your homework!! Good for you - hold out for a nice low price :-) I definitely want some pics when you finally make your big purchase! And Daq says hi & he wants you to know that he didn't bite you because you are awesome.
