I wrecked my first two cars, one on a slippery curve and the other a lady hit me. But the second accident would have been avoidable had I a few more year's of driving behind me.

My third car was "the one" a 1974 Plymouth Duster with 318 CID V8, speed on the floor, etc. Never put a scratch on her in 65,000 miles!

ANY Crossfire is hard to get body parts for - and you WILL need body parts before you know it (well, most likely - it's not a certainty). OTHER parts are also sometimes hard to find as well - so for an ONLY car, the Cross is not always a good idea. (IT's my only car now, but I have a company van that gets me to and from work - and Deb Walker has a Cross as HER only car, but she works in her den - most of the time, she doesn't even need to leave home to make a living!)

That is my 2 cents worth. I won't even get into insurance rates... N/A Crossfires are cheap to insure at age 50, but I bet NOTHING will be cheap to insure at your age. There are few disadvantages to being young, that is one of them.
