I know if it does have the inifnity system I'd have to run comppletely new wires from teh door and panels to the stereo. What about if it is not a infinity system?
Most ads I see show an interiour view - the Infinity system is easy to spot.
I am 28 and drive a 94 camaro that is slowly but surely getting old and things just don't quite work the way they should anymore. Only had one accident in my lifetime. I saw that the insurance can be around 1200-1300 a year. I am with state farm and in the southeast. I figure this is a ballpark figure. Is that about what it costs? I like the crossfire, just something about it draws me to it.And I'm sure the ladies wouldn't mind either

My insurance is $278 every six months for a Crossfire Roadster (non-SRT). I gave my agent a VIN of a similar car and she had a quote for me in 5 minutes. Her quote was $352 every six months because she quoted me without thinking of the multicar discount AND she hadn't done a credit check on me in years. The multicar discount knocked off almost $50 a month. Since my credit score is way up, I saved another $24 or so.
(But then, I turn 50 next year - not EVERYTHING about getting older is bad.
)
Get a VIN of a car that is close to what you plan on buying and call or visit your agent. This was the FIRST step I took! I think you will find the XF (non-SRT) is cheap to insure (for various reasons). The SRT will cost more, but I am unsure of HOW MUCH more.
The only issue I read was the relay control module issue on the 2004 but I wonder if that was fixed in the later models?
Does not look like it. But that is an easy fix anyway.
If I do get new speakers which would fit this vechicle? I put some CDT's in my camaro and they sound pretty good.
There are a million speakers out there to choose from - I have NO idea what you are looking for - but I am certain the speakers you want, and that will fit, are out there!!!! Buy the damn car and take it from there!
