Hello to fellow Crossfire enthusiasts. Just joined the CrossfireForum a few weeks back and thought I'd introduce myself. Wife & I had been looking for a good low mileage Crossfire for several months now. Located a 2007 Crossfire Limited Coupe with automatic on a Mitsubishi dealer's lot in KCMO during a visit to see my dad back in SEP. Car had only 1500 miles on it. Was bought new from a dealer in Lee's Summit, KS in MAR/08. Owner didn't like the car after owning several Eclipses. Traded the Crossfire for a new Eclipse (imagine that!). Anyway, picked up the car for less than private value and drove it home to SC. So far, wife & I really enjoy the car and I really like the driveability & performance. Not sure the color is correct in my signature below, but that's what the dealer called it.

I've been a limited performance car owner for quite a few years. I bought a 1986 Merkur XR4Ti new back in NOV/87, when that car sat on a dealer's lot for over a year. Ended up owning 88 & 89 models also. Just recently sold the 88 & 89 cars, and will soon sell off my 86 XR4Ti. Just don't have the time anymore to fiddle with the Merkurs.

Wife & I have been 'empty nesters' for a few years now & we like taking off for short weekend getaways. The Crossfire fills the bill when it comes to these road trips.

Anyway, I'll be around from time to time.

Later,
