    So my car has really been giving us problems lately and we dont really have the money to get it fixed AGAIN (was just fixed in March) so we thought why dont we look into replacing the old girl. I had a 2001 Buick Century and it had roughly 215000km on it.

    We first went in to a local dealership last week and looked at something but told we didnt have good enough credit and the vehicle I wanted was not certified so the banks said no. We went to another dealership on Thursday and again found something we liked but it had too many km's on it for the bank and again got turned down.
    Yesterday at our whits end we decided that we just had to suck it up and try and find the money to fix the car.

    WELL... just after a conversation about fixing the car we got a phone call from the first dealership we went to who said, "We are having a huge blow out in the next 2 days and we are pretty sure we will have something here to your liking and for your budget AND you are already pre-approved for it!", so we decided what the heck, lets go check it out!!!!

    I wanted an SUV but basically got told that for our budget that was unfortunately not going to happen. Seeing that we already had a Buick, they showed us a 2008 Buick Allure CX. Has only had 1 owner, and only has just over 119000kms on it. It has never been in any major accidents and is in perfect condition! It has free On-Star for 3 month, satellite radio(if we want), and is completely certified!!!!

    So needless to say for only $15 a month more in plates and a $114 biweekly car payment this is my new baby!!!!!

    Those terms can be confusing. For Biweekly it's every two weeks.

    How wonderful for you! And she's such a pretty car, too! (I know, we women don't only pick out cars by their colour or how nice they are - insert my husband's eyerolls here from back in the day when I, too, bought a red Buick! - lol)

    Have you picked a name for her yet? Mine was Anastasia, which totally suited her. Yours needs something more modern!
    Enjoy!

    Enjoy!
    My cars have all been black with lots of horses
    While I've never owned a Buick, I am a fan, if only for their non-sexist ad featuring a lady driving an actual manual (as opposed to other car Co ads with dudes trying to look cool grabbing shifters, but they're not even manual shifters). OP's Buick probably has decent performance too, i think those are v6. Nice, I hope you enjoy it!
