Default Went to look at a 2nd Crossfire today...

There's a small, local dealership that has an 04 alabaster automatic coupe with the salmon interior listed for $9k near my house, so I decided to go check it out and all I can say is that it REALLY made me appreciate the few small flaws in my car... The driver's interior door handle was falling off, the dash was all beat up, the rims were chewed up, the speaker covers in the doors were cracked, the windshield was chipped, it needed a ball joint badly, the brakes were worse than those on my Jeep, and the body roll could cause sea sickness. That being said the body was somehow in pristine condition (though a little dirty), and even the headlights were near perfect.

I was considering buying it to swap over parts in better condition than mine and then sell it for a small profit, but I don't see that being a possibility. At least I left feeling better about my own car.

Oh yeah... the cupholder was busted too
