Pants in Motion

So, this morning my girlfriend and I got up stupidly early, walked the dogs then headed into the city to set up an ING Direct account for the new car. We also specifically listed my PowerBook in our contents insurance so it’s covered if something horrible happens (like I vague out and leave my backpack sitting in a public place, thanks for catching me that one time APM).

Anyhow, I now have $3,000 put away towards a vehicle that’s not old enough to drink. I’m looking at a couple of cars this weekend that satisfy our criteria:

• I need to be able to fit in it
• It must be a manual
• I’d prefer a V6, I’m tired of gutless pusboxes that can’t overtake a tram with a tailwind
• My girlfriend wants a hatch
