Car bought!

So, I bought the Audi A3 today (Lava Gray with a pearl effect and some extra options). My first ever car! Thank you to all of you who replied to my request for comments either on my blog or privately. Many many thanks!

I was thinking today about the changing times we live. I have been negotiating the price for the A3 with two car dealers and I think I got a great deal at the end. The interesting part was how something like the non-standard-for-Audi iPod connector was part of my requested configuration. And yes, my A3 will have an integrated iPod connection so I can listen to all my MP3s, those podcasts I’ll be downloading, and audio books while stack in the Seattle/Redmond traffic jams 🙂
