I'm just trying to do a couple small touch ups on the Crossfire right now. I was thinking about changing the window mouldings but haven't found anything yet. Or just taking them down to an auto body shop and have repainted ( pressure washer blew off a small patch of clear coat after entering where a small chip was in the paint)

Overall I really like the car but at 6'2 its starting to get a little cramped for longer trips.

I just got back from a trip in B.C after having the car impounded for a week due to some ******* road crew not posting construction signs where they were working and I got hit with an excessive speeding ticket at 102 km (60mph) and stuck in some small hick town for a week. Jerk RCMP left me stuck on the side of the road with my dog an my bags. (Bah! another rant on that later)

Cheers.
I worked for Jaguar in the 80's. They were garbage back then. 2007 will be better but I'ld plan on uber-high maintenance costs to keep it on the road.
