Congratulations, Will.
I have followed a number of your posts and really did not think you would finish up with a Crossfire. Shows how wrong I was.
Like you I really enjoy my Crossfire.
By the way it's a pretty exclusive club. The Gold Coast Bulletin newspaper did a report a couple of weeks ago on vehicle ownership taken from the 2006 census. I had intended to keep the article but my wife binned the paper on recycling pick-up day.
From memory there were more Rolls Royce (over 100), Bentley, Ferrari, Lamborghini (19) than Crossfires on the Coast. Ex Queensland Premier (had Coupe now runs SRT Roadster) and Ex Gold Coast Mayor (Coupe) run Crossfires.
Brisbane dealer was advertising "new" Coupes at $51,999 "Drive-away" two weeks ago.
Cheapest secondhand I have seen was 2004 Coupe (previously registered as "PIMPUP" but personal plates removed and standard plates fitted, was $40,000 advertised price or $35,000 for cash deal at O'Neills Family Cars. Log books not completed, not looked after, 235/40/18 front tyres and 245/35/19 rears tyres "cheapie" brand.
Again congratulations and continue to enjoy.
