Hi Everyone!

I've been scoping out these forums for about a year waiting to pull the trigger on a new car. I have spent the last two years debating over what to get for my next car to replace my aging Cadillac STS. I wanted something sporty, relatively inexpensive, reliable, and unique. The list of possible cars ranged from E36 M3s to a Honda S2000. After much consideration of price/mileage etc. and a few test drives, I ended up purchasing a beautiful 2004 Crossfire Limited 6spd last Wednesday.

It's a 1 owner car (now 2) with 34K miles on it. It's in beautiful condition and drives very well. I only had about ten minutes of manual driving experience before test driving her. I've found this to be a very easy car to learn the skill. I stalled once on the first day of ownership and haven't since, haha. I'm going to be driving back to my school in Florida in a couple of weeks (currently in Michigan). Driving through the mountains is going to be a thrill.

I've been obsessed with cars since I was three years old. It's great to finally have one I can tinker with a bit. I'd like to learn as much about it in the process as I slowly modify and personalize it. So far, I installed a pair of HID low-beams using the two helpful tutorials on this forum. I ordered a pair of HID fogs that will be here in a couple of days. I'm also going to polish up the headlights this week to get rid of some of the fogginess. Once I get to Florida, I plan to have the windows tinted...it's just too hot not to.

I can't wait to join in and contribute to the discussion on these forums!

Safe Driving!
