For my first official blog, i figured i would tell you all about my most expensive purchase to date in my life. On March 17th, 2010 i bought a brand new 2010 Mazda 3. My research was finished and this is what i had choose. I looked at the Nissan Sentra, because i was driving a 98 Nissan Altima, i also looked at the Toyota Camry, but with all the brake problems they have been having lately i figured y risk it?
So i walked into the Mazda dealer and while the guy i spoke with wasn't 100% there, i wanted to buy one anyway. This guy, i felt, didn't know much about selling cars. i test drove an automatic and he looked at me like i had 5 heads when i wanted to double check that i was in drive.
I don't drive automatic vehicles. I have never owned an automatic vehicle. So when i told him i wanted it in manual transmission he again looked at me like i had 5 heads because i am a young women. When my car finally arrived on St. Patrick's Day i again took this car out for a test drive before signing the dotted line. Every 5 seconds he was telling me how to shift, how to change into lower gears to brake etc.
i know what i am doing but apparently he doesnt know anything about women driving stick shifts or how to sell cars.
