Default Finally.

After a long awaited period of time, I finally got my very own Chrysler Crossfire!!! I have a lot of ideas of what I want to do to my Crossfire, but what do you guys think is the first thing I should do? Glad I could finally join the crossfire community!!!

P.S. I was driving on the interstate near my house cruising around and a deer actually ran into the side of my 3 hour old Crossfire, no damage was done (thank god) but holy **** did it scare the crap out of me!!!

Luke

I paid $9,995 for the car. 70,000 miles, 1 Owner, Limited Edition..

Congrats on the new ride, sure looks sharp.
First thing I always do, with a new to me car, is give them an oil change with the correct synthetic oil, and on these it's Mobil 1 SAE 0W-40. And it takes 8.5 qts to do an oil change.
Take care of that "new" ride and let us know what mods you end up doing, "curious minds want to know".

Congrats on your new car. I've got mine for almost seven years with almost 70.000 miles on her with no problems. Well... my altinator went out when driving and shut down the cars engine while cruising on the highway

Get ready for a permanent grin

As for what doing first on your crossfire?

I would check your brake pads and change to ceramic (if not allready done).

Welcome!!

First thing you should do is drive that baby!! Second thing is to have the headlights polished. Third thing is 3M PPF the bumper and hood. Fourth thing is to lower the car

Nice deal man, I scored mine with 32,000 miles one owner for $12,500 out the door with no trade no money down and a brand new set of tires all the way around. But you got a hell of a deal still.

I paid $9750 with 49k miles.

I have had it one month tomorrow, and I can't stop smiling. I think everyone is tired of hearing me talk about it. The first things I did were to change the headlights to HID's and change the interior courtesy lights to red LED's.

Enjoy the car. You will learn to appreciate it more every day as you drive it.

Congrats on the car! There are things that you can do for performance as well. Do a search for CAI or "cold air intake". You may want to look at getting a tune done on the ECU as well. There are also some tricks you can do to the interior lighting as well.

Welcome and good for you. After you polish up the headlights, paint the gray part of the grill black. It turns the kind of goofy smile that the car has into more of a snarl. Black is the fastest color. Painting the grill black makes it even faster.
