you have pics of the car instead of family.
you brag about the car and include the cupholder somehow in the conversation.
people ask if that's the car with the fin that comes up as you drive.
you carry disposable wipes in the trunk to get the brake dust off the rims after each trip.


you...

 

- when you join this awesome forum.

- when you need a spare tire.
- when you need to buy a new set of tires.
- explain that its mechanically a Mercedes for the 100th time.
- you spend 5 hours claying, waxing, and detailing your baby the 1st time.
- wishing there were more performance upgrades...I know buy an SRT.
- learning to shoehorn your 6'2" frame into the drivers seat.

- last but not least...finally having an excuse not to give rides to your friends of larger carriage.

 

you know all styrofoam cups are not created equal.

 

When your wife claims you love your car more than you do her!

 

- you just smile every time you walk by it in the garage, like when you're just taking out the trash for the night.
- it's the wallpaper on both your desktop AND laptop computers.
- when you assemble a mobile detail kit to carry in the trunk so you can tackle any situation that comes along.

 

My wife can definitely relate to Iamfink2's quote.

Have I really become this obsessed person? I think I need help. What are the steps of addictive disorder behavior? Do I need to go to Rehab? Or, do I need to go to more meetings?

When is the next Florida GTG? Oh yea, Ocala...November 3. Whew, I feel better now.

 

You find yourself going WAY too fast on the expressway Way too easily, and Way too often!

(and consider it an act of aggression if anyone tries to pass you).

 

... - Crossfire (SRT-6) owner when...

- A Porsche pulls along side thinking your driving a Crossfire "Lite" and you blow his doors off while you laugh and laugh and he wonders WTF just happened???

 

You check the weather channel in the morning before leaving to see if it's going to be a Crossfire day, or do you have to take the all weather daily beater.

 

When your hubby is so excited about how much money he is saving, since I won't take my car to those BIG shopping centers. Oh, how I miss those Nordstrom sales...sigh...

Also when I take it in for an oil change...gotta love that price. But it's worth it...

 

- when everytime you put gas in it, someone says "That's a really cool looking car. What is it?"

 

...when people are willing to buy you lunch just to go for a ride!

 

- it's the wallpaper on both your desktop AND laptop computers...


Guilty as charged.

 

You don't have to drive it to enjoy it. You can just look at it and get excited !!!

 

When you buy it more gifts (mods), than you do the Wife!

 

When you make up reasons to drive.
When it makes you volunteer to run errands.

 

= you check both doors for dings or scratches every time you come back to the parked car.
= you obsess over conditioning the leather, looking for wrinkles on the driver seat left bolster.
= your friends tell you that you have a complex.
= your eye starts twitching if the exterior has bird poop or dust or pollen covering it.
= you VISIT THIS FORUM MORE THAN ONCE A DAY (often many times more).

 

All of the above - and then you just smile serenely knowing that you are driving the most beautiful, rare and well engineered automotive sleeper of this decade, bar none.

 

When you would rather detail your Xfire then go golfing...

Detail before you go golfing. Why? Cause the valet guys always let me park up front. I just throw them the keys. They tell me how many people admire the Crossfire and of course it is always and I do mean always clean.

I think they like the attention telling everyone. The owner of the restaurant drives a black Porsche and the XF gets much more attention and compliments. They let him park next to (behind) my baby. LOL.

 

When you spend hours on www.CrossfireForum.org ...
