Default Hello from Arizona!

Hello everyone. Just bought a 2004 Crossfire coupe. Not sure of the "official" color name but it is a metallic red with grey interior. Seems to have all the bells and whistles and they all work. 51,000 original miles. Had to fly from Arizona to Cleveland to pick it up and drive home which gave me a couple of days to get a feel for her and shake it down so to speak. Of course I couldn't find one closer to home in the condition I was looking for. I had the sales rep on Skype go over the car while I watched to give her a good going over before committing to the purchase since it was a 2000 mile trip. A few minor stone chips but no rust, no accident damage and no door dings were my big concerns. I wasn't disappointed! I have always liked the Crossfire since it's introduction but never felt the need so to speak to buy one. I was actually going to get a nice Crown Victoria but saw an ad for a Crossfire and said to myself, what the hell, you don't need a four door comfortable car, you need a small, squeeze yourself into sports car just like the other one sitting in the garage. One of my other cars is a fully restored 1971 Triumph GT6 MKIII. So the search began for the Crossfire and ended a couple of weeks ago with this one.

Anyway, that's the long and short of it. I'm sure I will be picking others brains here on the nuances and problems these cars have.
