I'm starting to think this guy is running a scam.

I'm almost positive that's the same guy that was trying to sell that same car about 6 months ago!

It may not be to your liking, but this XF is not ugly IMHO. You may not like the red accents. they are a bit ostentatious, but it does look like they did a good paint job. As for the lambo doors, my daughter has them and they are unique. Not really practical, but are unique. As for the interior, A+. Regarding the guy ... no comment.... it would probably be deleted by administrative types. lol

10K? Really?

Most expensive Lambo kit i've seen is like 2500. There is no way the other 7500 went towards red accents and repainting black, black.

yes it is ugly, it is hideous. i am sorry you like it but it is in very poor taste. that car is the kind that people point and laugh at when it goes down the street.

I am sure glad we all are able to give our opinions. I agree with you that I would not drive this XF as you probably would not. Then again I would not black out my tail lights. Some here would not put a CAI on not because the the performance increase, but because the like the stock engine look. I think you get my drift. To each there own.

And I did not say I liked it. I said it was not an ugly XF IMHO. Gotcha lol

IT probably the same guy trying to sell it over and over again because no one in their right mind would buy that car for what he's asking. Sure some kid might think it's a steal at $20K but $39K PLEASE. The way the prices are falling on these cars, the ONLY crossfire selling for more than $30K would be a startech. If that guy paid what he says he did, he should be saying 'Tommy, I got hosed!'

i really have no problems with the car. i don't care for the paint, but everything else is okay with me except the price seems too steep. looking at the market it just won't sell. if it would, i would have sold mine by now for sure, but the fact is if you bought a crossfire new, you'll loose money trying to sell it.

$33.9 for a used coupe? Whoa Nelly! Especially when you can get incredible deals on SRT-6's!

I still think he's a scammer.

7 months ago he had the SAME AD posted......7 months ago he claimed that he "bought it new 7 months ago" and put on the mods.

That is what I was thinking. He could at least update his time line. It does look like a scam, or just a guy out of touch with reality.

You guys pick on 'em all you want.........Personally, I think lambo doors should become the standard!

Pretty much zero chance of getting a "door ding" in the parking lot when you're parked next to a car with lambo doors!

Won't comment on the Lambo doors, but I got to tell you that I LOVE the doors on my DeLorean. You need only 14" to open them without touching anything along side of you. Try that with our XFires.

Plus, when a car is as low as our D's and XFires are, the addtional head room gained via the gull wing doors really comes in handy when getting in and out.
