as some of you know i have the red crossfire, the blue nissan and the silver 280z... and was tempted on trading all 3 to get another car... i don't know what else i would get but the fact that i thought about means i'm not happy with my car? i do love my xfire.

 

I certainly hope not :/ Everyone needs a change of pace sometime...I eventually will give my Xfire to my fiancé and get a new car that I can carry the kiddos in.

 

What are you looking for in a car?
That should sway your opinion/desire down certain avenues.

 

try the 07 audi tt... its very much like the Xfire. its just...hate to say it but... better...

that's what i'm getting next. then i'll worry about a family car.

 

Hate to say this but the new Audi TT is going to be a real probelm for the crossfire. The crossfire was built by daimler crysler with a purpose to compete with the Audi TT. Chrysler currently seem very smug that the Crossfire is out selling the the Audi TT in the good old USA (maybe because the crossfire is now cheep as chips in the USA). However the 2007 crossfire is in no real way different, if not completely identical to the 2003 crossfire, The 2007 Audi TT is a completely different beast from that available in 2003... (Ok lets admit it, it is completely awesome in comparrison... it is like comparing a ford model T to a for 2007 ford musang GT) it is almost like Audi have done some R&D over the last four years.

What can I say... A car that does not change becomes an alsorand, I thought we might have at least some new engines (perhaps from the new SLK). Basically everone who buys a new crossfire now outside of the USA (where they are cheeper than ice creams and condoms in the UK) is getting getting completely ripped off.

Still love my 2005 roadster (what can I say - it was a TT beater in 2005 when I bought it - just a shame it has never changed).

 

If you go with the TT, make sure you get the optional "Mechanic Included." Evidently, they don't get very good marks in the reliability department.

 

The Crossfire is the first car I've owned that I haven't thought about "what's next" and I've had a lot of nice cars. This car is about as unique as I can afford and the only other car I can think of might be a custom built 37 Ford Hot Rod kit. That would be in addition to the Crossfire not in place of.
