I've been on the waiting list for a Honda Fit since July, and I just got an email saying it's almost here! I can finally dump my crap Neon. I got my fit June 14th. I looooooove it! What a fun car. I'm dreading the idea of having to put snow tires on it, though. We'll see. Have you been to the FitFreak forum yet? Pop in, say hello! |

Quick question: how much does it cost, roughly, to get your alignment fixed and your tires rotated?

Rotation shouldn't be more than $20. Most places have free rotation through a coupon or if you bought the tires there.
Check with Midas. They have a standard prices and use them as a base.

Nice! Everyone I know who's owned an Acura has really liked it. I hope yours works out for you.

^Uh oh, that last post is ominous.
There is a fair to good chance that I'm going to buy a 2000 VW Golf tomorrow or Monday. I found it on Cars.com and I checked the Carfax report. The only thing that raises my eyebrow is that I would be the fourth owner. Is that weird? Also, a warning came up about the car being registered in a disaster zone because this is Katrina-land, but that doesn't concern me unless I see actual damage like moist headlights, mildew, rust, etc. FWIW, the last owner bought the car a while before Katrina and still has the title, so I'm not too concerned that it was a junked heap.
This is the first car I've ever bought. I had my last car for almost 10 years, and I finally confronted a part problem that is outrageously expensive in proportion to everything else.
Also, does anyone have any recent experience VWs? I know they can be prone to quirky German things, but realistically, is buying a seven year old car asking for too much trouble?
