Default All I get for my Ignition Coil failure is this lousy Dodge Neon!!!

So it finally happened to me..... driving along and it starts shuddering. I happen to be right by an audi dealer so I just drove it to the service dept. Told me it could take up to 10 days...... ten days!!!!!!!!!!!!

They only had a crappy neon left, but promised me if I came box tomorrow of the next day that I would get a better car.

Aaaaaaaaaaaargh
And of course, they will only replace the failed one, then the next time they all get replaced.

Default Neon is one corny-looking car. As a power blue race car, it is full-on gay. (pic)

Default I got a red Caviliar, the 16 year old highschool girl edition.

My dealer told me the same thing about upgrading to a bigger car but I'm just too lazy right now.

At least my dealer calls me like every other day to let me know the status.
