Thanks for the offer Ron, but I've never had a desire to sell my AMX. Ever since I was 19 when I bought it brand new, it just seems like it's a part of me. (even when I stored it for nearly 8 years) it was always there in my garage where I could lay my eyes on it. I'd feel like an organ donor if I ever let it go. I'm guessing a couple other "original owners" here on the forum,( Acrispy1, and Lorne just to name a few) know exactly what I'm talkin about.
If the Crossfire had never come along, the AMX probably never would have been parked in the first place. But as I've said so many times before on this forum, the Crossfire just "feels" so much like an updated version of an AMX to me that I never really missed driving it. Well maybe a little bit.
After getting my AMX hood scoop installed 5 years ago, everytime I slip behind the wheel of my XF, I get to see the very same image as I would when driving an AMX, so it's like the best of both worlds.
