Default Re: Collector Crossfire

This has been an interesting thread. I am amongst the "old guys" in age (not in mind or spirit)!

I too have noticed that some of the truly younger members (certainly not all) have been a little harsh toward "senior" members opinions. I believe there is an excellent chance that this car will become a collectible. Think about it though, not all collectibles achieve rockstar status when it comes to price.

I think kept in good condition, in twenty or so years the Crossfire could be worth about the same as it is now. Considering inflation and the like, that won't be a whole lot, (actually I hope I am wrong and it is worth a bundle!) but certainly it will be worth much more than the boring Camrys and Accords. Their future worth will be whatever scrap metal is going for.

The Crossfire is a car that inspires passion. Most everyone who owns one feels like it truly is a very special vehicle. For those of us who have already owned many more cars in the past than we will ever own in the future (that means we are getting old) this car represents our opportunity to own a classic. I once used the term "affordable exotic" and one of the younger members was all over me for calling it exotic.

We all have our opinions and this is a great forum to share them. Before flaming anyone for theirs, take time and think about it when you are forming your own.

Peace.
