Default Newbie here!!! Just bought a Xfire!

Hello everyone!! I just picked up a used '04 Graphite Metallic Crossfire Coupe (sold my '02 Lexus IS300 for it...I hope I won't regret it!). Car only had 4,000 miles on it when I bought it and picked it up from Boston last Wednesday. Now it has about 6,500 cuz I drove it back to New Mexico...(crazy I know but it was pretty fun). Besides I couldn't wait the 3 weeks it would take a shipping company.

The car is awesome and already came with the full 3M clear bra in the front and mirrors which helped with the long road trip. Best part of all was that I got 3 compliments while at stops on the drive back!

I'm gonna be tinting it with 15%, installing a JVC KD-LHX550, and putting a 5,000k HID kit in the weeks to come...

Anyways, on to the pics...

Well... you're going to learn one thing real quick around here.

We keep our tail pipes clean enough to eat out of. LOL

Hi I am new here too. Beautiful car!!
What do you have to say about the clear bra? Is it worth it?
I am looking for a stereo to put in mine but want to match the silver of the dash what color is that JVC you will install? Does it match the silver?

Well, I am sorry to see a Crossfire leaving Boston, but what with our tunnels ceilings falling down, I certainly can't blame it.

One thing that you must watch for with any car from Boston is that sometimes they like to change lanes quickly without signaling. Hopefully you will be able to break it of that habit.

We pretty much have the same car, but I think you need some chrome.

Wow she's a beauty!! I was only in Boston for a few hours but I experienced the changing lanes without signaling...the owner from the dealership picked us up from the train station and I was holding on for dear life the entire ride to the dealership!

Quick question - what percent tint do you have on the windows? Thanks!

looks like legal 35 to me, but the real question is are his tail pipes clean?

Congrats on your great new car!
I wish I had your winter weather here because mine is a roadster! I think if I lived in southern USA, I'd definitely have a top down.

Enjoy your car!

You should post your pics in the gallery. Just click on your "User Gallery" and then "upload pictures".
