1) I realize now that this was a terrible idea, I had no idea it would cost so much.
2) If I do get the car it would be on a loan and insured fully, which I have done research on and am prepared to take care of
3) My choice of car is mine, not influenced by my parents. I have always liked LT1 Roadmaster wagons but it's a pain to find one around here that isn't rusted away or overpriced. At my work the other week a customer had a TourX wagon and getting to see one up close basically sold me on it.
4) I honestly just really like the sunset orange metallic color. Orange is my favorite color and sunset orange specifically has some nostalgic ties for me because of our old Trans-Am (the inspiration behind the last 3 characters of my username)
At this point honestly if I get the Buick wagon I'm either getting it in the black color offered from the factory, or seeing if there is somehow a way I can order GM to paint it at the factory in sunset orange metallic, which most likely won't happen. Lol
I realize that they're not popular, but I would be VERY interested in a TourX if I happened to be in the market for a vehicle right now. Would fit my needs for carrying stuff and sounds like it would be fun to drive.
My wife is actually interested in replacing her car now, but she really only likes sedans and didn't bite when I showed her pictures of the TourX and Sportback. I don't think that she noticed that the GS wasn't quite a sedan, but the starting price was too high for her tastes, anyway.
Hope you find something that makes you happy!
