Almost a new car

Well, I almost signed on the dotted line for a new car yesterday, a cool little 2003 Mini Cooper S, charcoal gray with white top.
Almost. It just reaffirmed that I'm basically hopeless at the car dealer. I wanted to put a hold on it for the weekend so that I could go back on Monday to finalize the deal and get some last minute paperwork together. But then, there was all this paperwork (I really hate paperwork), and "sign here, here, and here." Just for a hold. Ack!
That's where I started getting nervous. What the hell am I signing? Am I totally binding myself to this car? Giving away my first born? Agreeing to a price?
So, my indecisive brain found a way out. Ech. I may lose the car, but there will be others out there for sure. If it doesn't sell over the weekend, I'll go back on Monday, like I said, and finalize the whole thing. I guess I'll kind of leave it up to fate.
At least some of the paperwork is ready.
