I got the car!
It's the Scion xD...I signed all the papers yesterday and we were able to pick it up today! I drove the Fit and liked it, and also looked at the Hyundai Nissan, the Mazda 3, and the Kia Rio. I wanted something small, but sporty, and that got good gas mileage. This one has a large interior, relative to its size. It has a classy look inside and came with tons of options that were standard, but that were add-ons in the other cars. It also has a nice warranty and a pretty decent car payment. I got a good interest rate and a little WOW moment that wasn't related to GBS. My credit score was a lot higher than I thought--which qualified me for the best interest rate. I was thrilled!
My wife and I (and the bambino) have been driving around all afternoon! We're now thinking we're going to trade in her car too (for the same one but a newer model) if we can do it without putting anything down and without paying a lot more for it.
Here's the pics:
