Thought I replaced my civic!!! Joke was on me.

Tell me this isnt a sign. My car needs a bunch of work (Struts, some AC work, and a bunch of other crap) SOOO:

Yesterday... I bought a 2013 Chevrolet Cruze with leather, sunroof. 16" rims, black 1.4L turbo. At least I thought I did. Financing was approved, the deal was done but they had to get the car from somewhere nearby because apparently the 6 speed manuals are rare. Today I got a call, the car was already sold when I bought it (credit check was done and everything). None others like it anywhere around the area.. fine... the only thing they have to offer is one that is 2000 dollars more.. (no).

Instead, I ordered the struts for my civic.. here we go again

Just thought I'd share my story with whomever cares.. I guess my civic REALLY wants me to keep it lol. So I'll fix the struts, and the AC.. see how long this thing runs.

Re: Thought I replaced my civic!!! Joke was on me.

Difference between me and the reaper.. I actually BOUGHT a new car haha.. It just wasn't meant to be . Now.. I've got my air condition working, and no more knocking when I turn the wheel.. All for a measly 380 bucks. Alignment and possibly inner tie rods tomorrow.. Drive for another .. 2 years?
