Here's the story, lol.
I went in because I knew my Beetle needed fixing. The gas mileage was doing horrible and my blinkers weren't working. Well, they didn a diagnostic for that and came back and told me that it was gonna be $1380.....and I only had $1100 saved. So they did some math and got it down to $1100-ish......but on the diagnostic list, there was still close to $800 worth of repairs I needed to fix on the Beetle. So after moping about my money pit of a car, I asked how much I could get if I traded it in. So they got a salesperson, he did an estimate and showed me some cars. Luckily, the payments aren't gonna be too much (about what I was paying for my Beetle, just like $70 less). So I ended up getting an '06 Passat. Its very nice, black with beige interior.
