Default The last new Crossfire...

according to Autotrader... a black 2008 in PA.Black with two tone cedar interior. Dealer's changed the wheels but otherwise stock. 111 miles. Great Xmas gift. Little rich for my blood at $23k so i'll share the link instead. It's here.

Too pricey for me and I don't like automatics. Don't care for the rims and I wonder whose been driving it those 111 miles for the past almost 3 years? Does the VIN (75862) even qualify as the LAST Crossfire manufactured?

Good question. I thought the last one officially was a roadster and either a guy in Detroit or Canada bought it. This may be the last coupe??? I don't know how you'd prove it, even with a vin now that Karmann is gone. We have tried many times to get official numbers and no one can give them. I wouldn't pay that kind of money even if it was the last one. Agree on the wheels and the auto, gotta have a 6 speed!

the rear wheels are way off...

i can't stand when one changes their rims on a crossfire and the off-set is incorrect... it just looks stupid.

There were 76047 made so it can't be in the last Coupe or Roadster.

It's a matter of semantics. I think they are claiming that's the last "new" Crossfire for sale. So it begs to question why a dealer would change out the wheels if it's really "new". Someone should check the history of the VIN number.

I don't see anywhere on the link that the dealer is claiming it's the last one.

Some confusion, one picture says off lease for $14,000 or so and the description says new at the higher price. Who knows .... who cares.

Brad, we got a good deal on our 08s at $17K! You still have Pebbles? Crack a 1,000 miles yet?

Had a goober tell me at a gas station this evening how much he liked my Porsche....(Wilma).

Angry Re: The last new Crossfire...

Not the "last one off the line"

But the "last new Crossfire available"?

I think this is.

If anybody else finds a NEW Crossfire at a dealer, feel free to post it on this thread and shut me up...

For months there were two in Elkhart, Indiana for $38k, but they were pulled off the market.

I posted this because I thought it was interesting there was still one left.

I didn't expect the yellow shower from the bored, though

The link to the car was simple enough. It was black with red interior and one hundred and eleven miles. They may have also been selling a lease return (but that's not the one I was talking about).

Maybe the dealer changed out the wheels because they were stained from storage or he thought they look dated like many users do.

In any case someone at the stealership is an Xfire enthusiast, putting up Andrew's logo on the ad.

Brad, I know you never met the salesman that sold us those cars but he looked & sounded just like the guy that is on Cash Cab.

& for my $00.02 $23K for that 08 with 111 miles......is still a decent deal compared to what $23K would buy new elsewhere.

Perhaps the dealer was just referring to the low miles on the car as “new” after all 111 miles is just about as new as you can get for an 08.

I didn’t read this as the last one built, if this isn’t the lowest mileage on a Crossfire then it sure has to be in the top 10 of low miles on a Crossfire. I wonder if the new car smell is still there?

My mistake it says 'off new' not 'off lease'.

As dealers go....I am sure there are XF's out there setting in a show room somewhere...many are car nuts just like us, and will sit one back hoping for the car becomes a collector....and I hope they are right...I know of a few I tried to buy that haven't sold, that have very low miles, but very high prices. But, I don't know of a new, never titled car out there,, but I would bet they are out there...
