Re: Wonder how many are left

thanks mdaniels. I think I read somewhere there were only 76k Crossfires built and that's worldwide. So that 76,047 sounds pretty accurate from what I've read. The contract with Karmann was for 100k ???don't know about the difference. Chris I think the last one was a Roadster that was purchased by someone in Canada? There is a thread on the other forum about the last Crossfire produced, someone actually tracked it down and was making offers on it from the person who bought it.

I see where you got that though. I wasn't clear about what i was thinking. That's all. You read more into my answer than I was clear about-only that Harbors data seemed reasonable to me. Does that make sense?

Sure does, I just wanted to make sure you weren't LIEING to us

Then I had a stint in HR and managed weapon program subcontracts for Honeywell and Lockheed Martin, so i've had some variety in my career.

I agree with your view on not seeing that many around. Just a few here in the early spring, but I haven't seen one on the road in awhile so far this summer.

Wow, small world. I used to be an electronic technician at Honeywell - worked at the Stinson plant, St. Louis Park plant, Arden Hills, and most of the other ones too! By the way, you know about the get together in Hastings on the 19th of July?

So would this number exclude the new ones remaining on dealer lots?

Re: Wonder how many are left

No offense meant to the average Crossfire owner but he serious question is how many SRT's are still out there. Seems that version suffers th greatest attrition rate, at least by incidental data posed here.
We started out with about 2006 Coupes and 1,100 roadsters or something like that. Wonder how many of those guys are still kicking @ss somewhere in America?

roadster with a stick

Somehow Average just doesn't seem like the appropriate word. My apologies.

Correct - These are X-fires that have been registered in the U.S., have current plates and/or tags and are out there burning gas.

Re: Wonder how many are left

I hate to say this and I probably wont be around for Barrett Jackson 2030 but if you have an SRT or an SRT Roadster and keep the miles low and keep it show quality you will have something worth some money down the road. I'd like to think my limited would do the same but I think the SRT's are the ones for the record books. I just saw a Z-28 Camaro like the one I used to own go for $63000, new it was a tad over 3 grand.
