Default Where have Crossfires been purchased?

For anyone who has bought a Crossfire already, where are you from? I'm trying to figure out exactly where the Crossfire is being sold right now.

I'm in So. Calif. Quite a few of the dealers around this area have X-fires. Most have only 1 or 2 but my local dealer (Shaver in San Bernardino) has 4. Bought mine in San Diego cause they had the Sapphire with a 6 speed.

Is Warnock the dealer that gave away the Crossfire on the radio? Also, when do you think the smaller dealers in NJ will be getting their Crossfires in?

I am from Seattle. I bought the car from a dealer outside but near Seattle I have agreed to a price and bought the rights to a vehicle but it won't arrive here until mid July. I am supposed to have the VIN by July 1. The dealer will put it on display for two weeks so I will take possession in late July

Wow. I'm glad my dealer has promised me MSRP. $54k for a Crossfire is a LITTLE extreme. The Crossfire is a great car, but for that much money, you can get something much better. I have a feeling whoever pays above $40,000 for a Crossfire is going to be kicking themselves in the *** a few months from now.

There are several listed on ebay at some exorbitant "buy it for" prices.

I purchased a "blue" 6 Speed today at MSRP, not here yet but scheduled for delivery in "early July." The Dealer has one firm (the one I purchased) and 3 more by "scheduled" to come in by the end of the year.

I just stopped by a dealer in my town, first one in the area that got a Crossfire in. Tried to open the door and it was locked, and a salesman comes running over, "No, this is a show car, we can't let you touch it." Wow. I explanied to him that I was interested in purchasing it, and he went to talk to the manager, and came back and said he would open it and let me sit in it. "Don't scuff the door sill." Got it in, fit very nice. I had no intention of buying this car from them, but I let on that I did. I asked what I had to offer to get the car. The salesman said they weren't accepting anything less than $10,000 over sticker. Thanked him and left. I am actually glad the dealers are doing this. Now when I get mine at MSRP, those Crossfires that they are trying to sell at $10,000+ over sticker will still be sitting there, making this car more exclusive.

Looks like I am the only potential owner of a Crossfire viewing this website from ENGLAND .... they dont launch here until October .... thinking of ordering a second one now and selling it for a profit once they launch .... only 200 coming to UK for launch ... all you guys in the USA getting majority of stock !

I got mine in Northern NJ yesterday. SSB/Dark, Autostick. I wanted to wait for the 6-speed but the uncertainty of what was coming in made be take it first.

You know what they say, a Crossfire in the driveway is worth two on order

Though I agree with Mightyjlr, I don't think those that are paying extreme prices will kick themselves in a few months, perhaps a year. Only 8,700 cars in the US this year, so there will be few and frankly, I hope it says that way.

Most cars are on "allocation" now to dealers, they get what gets delivered, no orders anymore so I'd get something on paper from your dealership if they promise you a particular configuration.

And if you want one now, I'd take an extreme offer anytime

I think anyoine paying over MSRP will be kicking themselves when they start to become avail. When you go to sell you will be way upside down in the car. I've spoken to dealers wanting $10K over (who the hell would pay that!!) most want $5K over, and the one I'm buying from is selling me a blk for $500 over (which I talked him to MSRP.)

DON'T PAY OVER MSRP!!!!!!!! :shock:
