Default Don't hate me - might be going to the dark side for my wife

So we have been looking for a new car for my wife. right now she has a 2007 civic (that I don't really like) and we're selling it.

Down by where my dad lives, in SC, we found an IMMACULATE 2000 Saab 9-3 convertible that only has 54,000 miles on it. I'm waiting to hear back from the guy with his best price, but if he's anything close to where i want it to be, I think we're gonna jump on it.

Well, i had my dad go look at the car, test drive it, and take it to the saab dealership down there for inspection. Everything looks good on the car, so we bought it. We'll be flying down there over thanksgiving to get it, then taking the scenic route home from SC. There's NO way I can drive back from SC in a convertible saab turbo without doing the Moonshiner Run, The Dragon, and the Cherohala Skyway...

I went to Clemson University, and plan on swiniging through there on the way home. Walhalla SC (where the Moonshiner Run starts) is about 15 minutes from Clemson campus. =)
