Default First post!

Hi everyone,
I am the proud owner of a Xfire for the last 10 months or so and have been reading and learning a lot in this forum. So I decided to join your friendly community. As my alias states I am French living and working in Houston. Upon my arrival I wanted an "original" car. My first choice was the Ford Thunderbird (the latest model) but the only ones I found had high mileage. Then I remembered that my neighboor in France just bought an Xfire before leaving and so my choice was quick. I bought it in Carmax with 9k on it. Only problem is that this car is not designed at all for the Houstonian streets (some much pot holes!). After less than a month had a bubble in the rear tire but carmax change it for free (Michelin pilot). But anyway, I enjoy it while cruising on the highway but I am looking forward to driving it in the mountains and really push it!
Cheers

Hey Frenchy,

Congrats on the Great Ride & Welcome to the Forum!
I got a Place in the Mountains that you can really Push It, it's call the Dragon's Den!

Come and visit us for a Meet sometime, Spring or Fall?

You could come along with the two Crossfires coming from West Texas, for this Spring Meet in 29 Days?

Enjoy your Ride!
