Took delivery of my Xfire Thursday night
Thursday night I leased #20277 which is a 2004 Alabaster/Cedar coupe. The color combination is absolutely gorgeous. The dealer had this one on the showroom floor for months and luckily they still had it when I finally decided to buy.
I absolutley love this car. I'm amazed at all the looks and comments I've gotten from people in the few days I've owned it.
This is the first new car I've bought locally. I've always gone to LA or the coast, since here they like to hassle you and charge over sticker. It was an extremely easy and positive experience; in less than 3 hours after the initial phone call, I was driving away.
Of course that experience didn't last... today when I was out taking my car for a walk, the dealership calls to say I need to resign my lease because they made a mistake. They want to charge me 20 cents per mile over the limit instead of the 15 cents on the contract I have.
The Crossfire continues to amaze me. Everything from the subtle design cues to how well it drives. The only thing I am disappointed about, is all the somewhat harsh reviews the car got. I love the interior and I happen to think it has plenty of power. Had it not been for the negative vibes, I might have joined the Crossfire club sooner!
