...get used to the attention. I get a lot of looks in Michigan, where Crossfires are less of a rarity than in other states. Probably the same goes for Ohio.

Funny thing, though. I was out in Oregon for my honeymoon last week, and we drove over 1,000 miles down the coast to California and up through the mountains on the return to Portland. Our trusty rental was a Sebring convertible, which offered little of the thrill that goes with my Crossfire (but is surprisingly roomy and comfortable). During my trip, I saw exactly one Crossfire in over 1,000 miles of driving. That particular Crossfire was a white Limited, sitting on a dealer lot in Newport. I got to thinking about it, and it occurred to me that 1,700 Crossfires sell per month across the US (according to Wards). That's an average of 34 per state, per month. In places like Oregon (which have a huge appetite for uninspiring commodity cars from Asia), I would assume that far fewer than that average are sold every month. In Oregon, a Crossfire would probably get a ton of attention due to its rarity.
