Question How Many Crossfires Have You Owned?

Tell Us, How Many Crossfires you have owned &
Why you've owned one or more & Why you Would
or Did buy another?
SF


My Story,

I bought my 1st Crossfire ('05 SSB, Two Tone w/ Nav & Contis, Ltd Roadster) in March '05, I always loved it since I first set eyes on one & when I could buy a used one exactly like I wanted (w/ less than 500 miles) for less than $35,000 I jumped on it! (& Loved it, it was Perfect!)

Then a few years later I Caught the "SRT6 Illness", I intially didn't like the Fixed Spoiler or the Wheels, but Now they were Beautiful, the SRT6 was a Beast & the Prices were way down.
So in July after a lot of reseach on this Forum & of the Market, I took the plunge & bought the Exact Twin to the Ltd only an '05 SRT6. Swapped them for $4,500 trade difference.

Then in November last year I got hungry for a SRT6 Coupe, to keep my Roadster company & more pristine. So on, Nov 24th I bought another '05 SRT6 Exactly like (SSB, Nav & Contis) the other two only a Coupe, in Chicago, flew in & Drove it Home. What an 800 mile Ride it was & I was in Heaven again!

"Thats My Story & I'm Sticking to It!"

Well, I've only owned one - the one in my garage right now - but I didn't respond to the poll because I don't actually believe that "one is enough for anyone". I would love to have a coupe to go along with my roadster!!

"I Own One & Plan on getting more someday soon!" Check ( )

I feel the same as you Mike, I would love to get an alabaster coupe to go with my roadster after seeing Fritzauf's at Woodward.

Ditto for me, but I would like my coupe in SSB, and an SRT6.

Would love to, but I will have to girls in college towards the end of this summer. I'm sure you know how many Crossfires I could buy with that.

If that Fritzhauf guy is really me (Fritzauf) I'm extreemly flattered. Thanks for the complement.
If I owned more than one Crossfire my head would explode trying to decide which one to drive.
For now I'll have to entertain my minor addiction with only one.

But it would be nice to have a SPARE...

Well I've owned two - but not at the same time.

Purchased a brand new 2006 SSB Limited Coupe (7 miles) that I owned for less then three months - only because I found a new (100 miles) Aero Blue SRT6 for only $600 more.

Selling the limited and then buying the SRT was an easy decision.

We have two.

It all started last spring. I was in San Antonio on business and Hertz gave me a Crossfire as a rental. I had already loved the looks of the xfires and was blown away after driving one. It was time to buy the wifey a "new" car and she test drove a Crossfire then a G35. The G35 was nice but it was like just another car. The Crossfire was fun and great styling.

After buying her car I discovered this site. I wanted a white roadster but then started reading all about the SRT's. I decided if I'm going to have a fun weekend car it should be top-of-the-line. So, after much searching for a "new" SRT, I finally found the right one.

Red & Black are better together than "Black & Blue"!

BTW, you need another Digit in your SRT6 Vin #?

Black
2005 SRT-6 Roadster
vin #5578 ?
