Took the plunge, got a X-fire

Well, I took the plunge, I bought this 2005 crossfire coupe limited, 6 speed, only 9,000 miles. Graphite/Grey.

I like the little sun reflection on the front ground effect. It's like, DING! Spic and Span Baby!!

Re: Took the plunge, got a X-fire

Ended up getting the car at the Atlanta High line auction. Had a dealer just charge me a small fee, to buy it. After his fee ended up paying $19,001.00, a 2005 limited 9,000 miles. Another dealer was bidding against me and ran up the price a little. Another X-fire convertible pulled $26,700 on the block about 30 minutes later. A 2005 limited 14,000 miles.

Re: Took the plunge, got a X-fire

There were also a few really cool cars that went across the block I've never seen in person. A 2004 Maserati convertible went for $76,000.
Also a 2006 Aston martin DB9 coupe, don't know what it sold for because we left before it went up.

Re: Took the plunge, got a X-fire

That IS a great price. And what I think may be the best color to highlight the lines.

Matt... this is really weird. The pictures you're posting are pictures of my car. Not pictures of a car like mine, pictures of my ACTUAL car. I bought it 3 days ago.
