Talking I love my new car!!!

Hi! I just joined today after "lurking" here while shopping for my Crossfire. Thanks for all the helpful and fun posts on the site. You all can't know how much that helped me to feel even more passionate about my purchase!!!

So, what did I get?

2005, Coupe, 6 speed, Limited and yes, its RED!!! 21,000 miles, GREAT condition, no scratches, dents or dings.

As soon as I got it home I painted my nails to match! (Keys to My Karma, by OPI, it just seemed like the right thing to do!)

All this after 24 years of "sensible" 4-door sedans. Nissan Sentra (11 years), Dodge Intrepid (5 years), Mercedes C320 (3 years), Chrysler 300 (5 years).

Congrats. welcome.

I painted my nails to match but finding SSB polish was hard.

The wife looked at me funny, so I took it off.

In 35 months, I've not had one ... (knock wood) ... it's not that I've not deserved one, far from it .... just a bit careful and a lot lucky ...

I'll be nice, but black??? Could have bought one of those, had planned some nice black and red leather seats to jazz it up a bit. It was a basic trim package and just didn't light me up. I think a friend of mine is about to go pick it up. His tounge fell out when he saw my car!

If you knew me, you'd know it had to be RED!!!
