OK.
8.9% for 72 months and a total of $2500 down (instead of $1500) comes out to $328.06 a month, which is a lot more doable.
Finance manager is submitting it right now, but if all goes well- I'll be going in on the 17th to sign papers.
Crisis possibly averted?

Okay, it's still less than I've spent on cars I liked less. Hope you get it :D

Date: 2009-01-05 11:20 pm (UTC)I wish I could be all :D about it, but at the moment- my brain is still all OMGCRISISCRYCRYCRY. I am also NOT happy about my father giving me a thousand dollars for this. I tried to talk him out of it. :/
The dealer dropped a couple thousand off the car for me when we started having problems with the banks, so it's now $18,200. I got rejected by every single bank they work with except for Mini Financial, who is apparently hardcore. And I think they're as desparate to sell me the car as I am to get one!
I put a five hundred dollar deposit down over the phone and now I'm twitchy.

Date: 2009-01-07 09:05 pm (UTC)I've started getting a bit excited. :D
Mostly because it's been pissing down freezing rain for the past two days and I am quite tired of going in the car through the passenger side and getting soaked in the process.
I don't know how I'm even going to handle being able to enter a car through the driver's side door. Or having proper heat. Or defrosters that actually work. WHAT MANNER OF WITCHCRAFT IS THIS?!
I also think I have a name ready for the Mini, as well.
