Beth and I came about a hair away from buying a new car today. There is a 2002 Honda Accord with less than 40k miles on it for $16000 on a used car lot and it is sweeeet. I spotted it the other day on a used car lot and went to check it out today. I liked it...a lot...so much in fact that I test drove it, and liked it so much I took it home, told Beth to take it for a spin, and she liked it...a lot...so we loaded up the kids, cleaned out the Geo, got the checkbook, and headed back to trade in and trade up. However, on the way back I almost had a panic attack and realized this would be a huge mistake because no, we couldn't really afford it. So, we thanked the nice used car guys for the ride and told them we'd pass. But ooooooooooo what a nice car.
