Welcome Houston ! As a newbie on the forum and a perspective owner, I would tell ya grab a bag of chips, a big jar of salsa, a couple of beers and use the search function on the top of the page. This topic has been discussed numerous times and I'd hate for ya to get flamed too badly by some of our SENIOR members !!!
Welcome again, good luck on your purchase !

 

hey if your budget allows you to buy a brand new car they have some great deals in grapevine tx where i got my car from and had it trailered to missouri.

https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...ad.php?t=29616

they are selling manuals for $17,000 2008 limited coupe that is what i got and my brother.

act quick as they sell around 3-5 per week, and then you will be stuck with auto.

i got a quote for my girl for a blaze red manual with navigation for $18,000 with fees + ttl.

i think they only have nav models left but double check,

call ross lindsey tell them fez sent you, 817-658-2016 sales manager.

Now go out and get that Crossfire!
Report back once you do.
"See" ya on the forum later!

 

For any 6MT purchase, make sure you test out of the gearchange on the shifter.

If you find a model with a difficult 1st or 2nd gear engagement compared to 3rd/4th or 5th/6th, avoid it like the plague.

 

Come on guys, you know the autostick is the best. Quit trying to sidetrack him!

As long as it is tucked into an SRT6 I will not argue.

Welcome! I test drove a few MT before I got my SRT6, until this I have never bought an auto, but I must admit I do like this thing. No qualms here.

A little FYI since we are in the same area. I test drove a couple at Texas Direct Auto, both had 18k miles, both MT. They were in pretty bad shape, the aero blue on had a weak motor and a loose tranny. Not to mention all the cosmetic problems. Anyway, just letting you know that if you are a detail nut like myself, the xfires they have are not top notch.

 

Deangelo,

Being a Houston guy myself. I would have to recommend going to Deerbrook-Forest Chrysler. They are good people and good at their job. I bought my '07 Base Coupe from them and got a good deal, which you could probably do better than right now. Who knows, just definately use the search function here and don't be afraid to go to different dealerships specific about the crossfire and see what they can do.

Never buy on your first visit anywhere. Always consult the forum, you will not find a more knowledgeable group of people anywhere, when it comes to crossfires.

 

Welcome aboard and enjoy the ride! They are worth every penny since they are the best bang for the buck nowadays.

 

Hi,just wanted to say welcome and enjoy this forum.Lots of good advice and info.EVERYONE IS VERY HELPFUL

 

Welcome deangelo,
Good luck finding the Crossfire that's right for you.
Once you have one you will wonder why you ever drove anything else.!!!
