Update:

I returned the car and am getting something else. Its already leaking fluids. They offered to fix whatever the problem was for free but after googling for reviews on this make and model of car, I found that its a heap of trouble. No wonder a relatively new car with low miles was so affordable. They gave me a nice loaner car until I decide what I want.
 
Very smart it is too. Hope you get lot of pleasure out of it

Congratulations! That's a very nice looking car and I wish you all the best with it!

Where did you buy it?
 
A dealership. Had to finance because I could not find a decent car for $1000 (I have in the past at impound lots but they were all dry at the moment). I used that money as a down payment instead.
 
What happened to the other car you bought not so long ago?

Engine blew.
 
On my way home. I was just about to get home too so I put the car in neutral and pushed it home. I sold it to the wrecking yard. They came out & picked it up & gave me $90. The damage was too severe to fix. It was getting hot for a while, I had the thermostat changed out & they saw that I had a cracked head gasket & other problems & it was only a matter of time before it dies.

Aww, that's a shame. The money you paid for it and the money spent to get the thermostat changed to only get $90. The only good thing is that it happened so close to home. Thank goodness you weren't hours away from your house! I wish you all the best with your new car!

Holy crap, you're having really bad luck when it comes to cars lately. Glad they took it back and were nice enough to loan you a car. Any idea what you're doing to do now?
