Default New Owner Here

Hi Everyone--
My husband and I have been gaga for the Crossfire since we saw our first one. So, we decided to buy a 2008 Coupe in Sapphire Silver Blue Metallic from a dealership in Cedar Lake, IN. We live in the southwest suburbs of Chicago. It only had 6 miles on it when we took possession on September 4. It is our extra toy car, which we plan to store in the winter. Why were we able to buy it for $24,000 when the list price was $38,000?

I look forward to being a member of the forum and very much appreciate all the information that is available here, even tho' I read all the posts about "stop the rust while you can" with some dismay. I'm going to post at that thread next. As a new owner, are there any other important posts that I should focus on?

Regards,
Dale

Well, since you are in Chicago I would start with this one... Chicagoland GTG Oct 5th

Come meet up with us this weekend. I think there are like eight of us right now.. You can read through the thread. Other than that I would just scan the forums, or use the search feature for something like common problems or something like that... The search function can help you find anything that ahs already been discussed it works very well.

Welcome new owner! I've owned my SRT for about a month and a half now and everything I know about the car has come from this website.

Sit down and take it all in, it's there somewhere, just search!
