Re: Looking to buy a 2004 / 2005 Limited Coupe
I'm not worried about the savings of fuel. I was just curious. For example. My M35 and FX35 say unleaded fuel only, and in little letters say - premium fuel for optimal performance. When I put 93 in vs. 87 I can't tell the difference. I was curious if that was the case for the Crossfire.
Like people have mentioned. 87 here is about $3.85-$3.99 and Premium is $4.05 - $4.20 and the difference on 15 gallons is about $4 dollars. I agree it isn't worth the savings.
I actually prefer the limited exterior look, and was fussing that I was going to have to buy the chrome windshield surround, side vents, and door handles which would have been about an additional $1000 all together.
I'm actually bidding on a 2005 with 39,000 miles black on black limited on eBay - the only down side is it is an automatic, but the gas mileage seems to be significantly better.
The only reason I'm looking for a Crossfire is because it is the only vehicle out there under $15,000 that has the look of being more than $20,000. What - I'm going to go from an FX35 and M35 to a Honda Civic? pssh - NO. I'm just looking to take my $1,500 / month in car payments and replace it with $250 - tops.
This whole saving money thing is hard when the economy is in the toilet.

Last question... Does the 2005 limited model automatically come with the Infinity sound system or is it still an option? I can't tell from the pictures on eBay if this particular one has it. Thanks!
