Hey guys, I just got my new Crossfire last weekend from Grapevine Chrysler/Dodge/jeep, and I could not be happier. I was looking for a new car, and I had never really considered the Crossfire before. I was dropping my mom's diesel Grand Cherokee off to be serviced and I saw that they were practically giving the crossfires away! So i drove one and my parents helped me buy one that night. Apperantly the dealer had just come under new ownership and in the shake up they accidentally ordered 40 or so crossfires. They were desperate to get rid of them, so i ended up getting a 2008 saphireblue with red leather and a stick that had a $35,000 sticker for only $17,000!!!!!!! I AM SOOOO EXCITED ABOUT MY NEW CAR!!!!
I traded my 1997 Land Rover Defender and my parents 1999 BMW 740i sport that they never used.

The car is flawless and I am completely obsessed with it, I go sit in it in the garage sometimes at night ahahah i know im lame . However i was reading around on the site and i noticed that it seems that the dealers cannot work on them? where do i get it serviced? I also noticed that 1-2 shift is stiff and i HATE downshifting becuase i feel very unsure about it. I had an Audi a4 a few last year and i could pop off a down shift of skipping 3 gears with no problem (like 6th to 3rd gear), but in the crossfire i am afraid to try that . The clutch however is better than the Audi's. I suspect that i will just get used to it over time and it won't be a problem.

I am very excited about the car and with this forum/community, and since I dont know much about the car (besides that it has slk parts and such) I am very open to any suggestions, tips, or general comments from ppl who have more experience with the car.
