about the price, I kind of know he people who own the dealership so that helps. They are into cars so they know me and my husband. we go there all the time just to check out what they have. The car was $9000, but the salesman told me that if I would pay cash he'd drop the price $1k for every month that it sat on the lot ( and he said he wouldn't push the car so it'd be around longer). I've waited almost 3 months. we'll see if he stands up to his part of the deal (if everything else checks out).
