Default Re: What did you do to your Crossfire today?

I said OK and we went for a drive. She was doing pretty good until we pulled up to a stop light, and stalled it when the light turned green. Naturally somebody started honking, and of course that didn't help matters. She got more frustrated each time she tried to launch it, and it just went down hill from there. Personally, I think because the car is so quiet, she simply couldn't hear the motor.
Well fast forward 5 years later, and she bought her own Alabaster roadster, "automatic" so I guess she showed me.

Tell your daughter congrats! It is nice to see multiple generations owning a Crossfire. Unfortunately my sons don't share my passion (yet or I scare the crap out of them when I drive).
