Default test drove the car today... OMG!!! :D

Ok I was ready to get it today but they said I can't get the loan (something about too many credit checks recently. I guess b/c I tried to apply for a few loans and got turned down so ill just stop doing that and ill be okay)

Anyway they just told me to get my dad to call tomorrow about the insurance info and his info so he can cosign over the phone.

Back to the car.

It is sexy as hell, so I get ALOT of looks. Its great. Also I "floored" it and I got so excited. It sounded so nice and the speed was very nice. This is coming from someone who has only owned a 99 ford ranger.

Hopefully I can drive away with it tomorrow.

Hey man, they are sexy as hell, aren't they? I'm a new owner (Day 4) and I get that OMG feeling every time I walk toward mine and see it new all over again. Good luck bro, I hope you're able to take her home. What model and color?

Be good to her.

Yall prolly heard about the tornado in suffolk, va. Thats where I live and my dad is the city of suffolk safety corrdinator so he hasn't really slept for the past 48 hours.

I've had mine for 3 years and I'm still hooked. I don't drive it in the winter. These cars are not good in snow. I love my Crossfire but choose the Mini Cooper for a year round daily driver. Good luck with your decision and listen to your Dad.

I just find it so amazing I got it for 13k. This car seriouslly looks like it cost over 50,000 dollars and drives just as good.

If anyone asks how much I pay for it... ill just say "i don't not discuss stuff like that"

if you've ever watched the first batman movie, I have the same grin the joker has evertime I get near or think about my sweet baby. The grin gets worst as the miles roll by, and I get more stares from my roadster then I've ever got in my 2005 S 430 or my S-type Jag. Love this car It's like wishing you could date the home coming queen and finding out that you can and that your dreams did not come close to reality she's so much more. Had her since Febuary 20, 2008, and she's an 05
