Shift your price up a little, look in lots of places( ebay, Autotraders, this forum, etc.). you can find a great car that you will love everyday you get to see it. Join up with a forum group in your area and go to GTGs, and have fun.
I have to agree! If you look at what your really buying, in any car it is not only price, but the detail to buy. I bought the "blubird" site un seen from a dealer in Casper WY, but I bought the CarFax and looked at the maintinence schedule to see what was done. It had very low miles on it (4200) and my wife has had it for about a year now. I think she just turned over her 10000 miles. She makes sure she changes the oil, keeps it looking clean inside and out. Yes, she has founf that the "Tire Pressure" indicator seems to just come on most of the time. Had it check twice, but no low perssure or high going on. I looked at alot of Crossfires to see what previos owner have done, and that will tell you alot. My "toy" is washed weekly and Waxed once a month, engine is clean as a whistle and i do all the Pre-Maintenance on it. Tommorrow I will be taking it in for it's 20000 mile check up.
I would tell you most of the regulars here find great Crossfires and can tell who really takes care of them. I have another good croosfire Friend in Nampa , Id that takes care of his better than me! I would not esitate to buy a Crossfire from him:
