Default New Coupe Owner

Ello

I just picked up my 07 limited coupe this afternoon.
I already love the car, although it does have its quirks (mostly the headlights fogging up, which will get addressed at the dealer tomorrow)

but anyways, its black on grey, 7,000 miles
not bad
photos later (like you havent seen one, lol)

Thumbs up Re: New Coupe Owner

Hi Infinite,

Welcome to the Forum & Congrats on your Great new ride!

I see you are in Atlanta, Just 2-3 hrs from the Dragon, give it some consideration for your Weekend of April 4th, with 50+ other Crossfires from around the Nation!

Good Luck with your New Baby!

Bill (SF)

Congrats and welcome.
The headlight issue is very common. They might put a vent kit in the headlights, then when they continue to fog up, they'll replace them.

Welcome and Congrats.

Do you think that the dealer will admit that they curbed your rim? I have a feeling that they will say that the rim was already curbed. Let us know and good luck.

Welcome aboard, Infinite! I'm also a new member here for the last week or so. I've had my 2005 Roadster for less than a month and I'm completely fascinated by this wonderful automobile. Mine is a 6-speed and it only had 6000 miles on it when I drove it out of the dealership.

I hope you can square away those initial problems through your dealer. If he or she is smart, they will bend over backwards to please their customers.

I hope you visit this site often. There is a wealth of information to ponder here. You can always get an answer to your questions when you ask them, and that's a real plus with a specialty car like the XFire.

Yeah, the red mark will be in your favor, don't scrape it off!
