Car Hunting

I am still on the hunt for a car.   I've been asking God for wisdom and direction for a car, but also to prepare my heart for what He has for me.  I've asked Him to give me a desire for what He has, and remove other desires.   Sad (kinda) to say, but as time has gone on, my desire for a limo at this time in life as been dropping.   And the last couple days, even I've been searching all kinds of other cars, not even looking at limos.   I am still searching and praying, but ideally I'd like to get a high mpg car, that is if I'm not going to get a limo.   From my local searching on Craigslist, I've found that some of the higher mpg cars closer to my price range are either VW Beetles or Toyota Echos - both are not very common at all, thus there is limited selection.   I've been warned about the VW Bugs, that I may not fit in them, whereas I know I can fit in the Echo's.    I contacted they guy of the only Echo (that I've found) on Craigslist in Bloomington-Normal, and now it's possibly just a waiting game - we will see.  I also need to sell my coins before I can afford the car.  I have someone who made an offer of $1,800 for a lot of coins I am selling (I have them advertised at $2,200) and I made yet another counter offer (for 40 less coins, yet still $1,800).  So I am waiting to hear from them about it - my main hesitation is I paid about $1,816 for this lot, so I'd like to at least break even.   Selling a big lot for nearly $2,000 is very attractive, as it would save a lot of work, and time, to prep, post, sell, and ship them all individually.   I ask for prayer that God would work His will in this, not mine.
