Considering I wouldnt have my crossfire is if wasnt for my stepdad George, I thought it fitting to include a shot of him at the park with the crossfire.

boy, you really nailed it! this is 1 of the 2 best angles. (and the background, the lights, everything). master photographer. the other 1, the 1 i brought. it is the xf at its best. higher than ground level, from the front, and from the rear, to show the most outstanding and elegant car ever created (my opinion).

I've met so many people due to my three Roadsters. George was one I met early on, I believe in 2011 at the fall Dragon.
He was the guy who told me I snored, and recorded it, when we shared a lodge room in 2012 or 2013. I never had the guts to listen to the recording, but in 2014, I was diagnosed with severe sleep apnea and AFIB. I should have used the "news" he brought me more effectively.

It kinda broke my heart when he told me he'd not be attending any more Dragons due to heath issues, that was in, I think 2016 or 17.

To keep my post on topic, my first photo of the SE (taken in a hotel parking lot an hour or two after purchase in 2015) seems appropriate. The car sat for 1 1/2 years before I bought it, I would not get it home without starting to deal with the issues it had. After less than two years, I had all the issues resolved.

I have forgotten who took this photo and posted it, there were a few in the series and they stand head and shoulders above most photos posted.
If anyone remembers who took them please let me know and credit will be given to the photographer.
The German Crossfire calendars were filled with great photos, none with telegraph poles poking out the roof.
A Crossfire is much like the next, it is the background that makes the photo different and interesting.
This photo could show my Crossfire, it does not, but it looks the same.


Another photo from the series.

I always liked the one below of my 2007 Coupe taken at the war memorial in Simpsonville, SC. Took quite a few that afternoon from all angles. I even included one in my forum signature.

Of course, anytime I visit a vineyard with the Crossfire, I just gotta take a picture.

Chateau Elan just north of Atlanta.

Gotta admit those TSW Snetterton wheels do look good on a Crossfire & set the car off!

excellent shots, all of them. the angle, the distance. far away gives more realistic impression than taking them too close.
