Default Poll: Should I buy this car?

Randy Adams Inc. | Pre-owned Dealer | New Braunfels, Texas

It doesn't have navi, there's a small ding in the right 1/4 panel, the "C" is gone off the back and the batteries dead. Condition of the back window is unkown.

What's cool? It's a Crossfire. It's red/black. It gets me back in the XF game.

I'ld probably remove the rest of the lettering from the back (debadging) and find a paintless removal of the ding.
I might offer $13K Maybe $13.200

There's others around in this price range but this looks like the best one with a stick.

I'm looking for opinions before driving 173 miles to go look at it.
Thx

Looks to me like it has Conti tires on the drivers side which look like they will need replaced, and BF Goodrich on the passenger side. I think you should shop around a bit more. Don't get in a hurry and I think a better deal will come along. Just my .02

Although it is an automatic and has a few more miles on it. From the pictures it looks like it is in better shape. It looks like it has been taken care of to me. Again just my .02 cents

The SE doesn't look too bad and the price is ok. Keep in mind that it is not a limited. Take your time and find the one that you like the best.

Nearly bought this one today.

2007 Chrysler Crossfire $16,953 - Lone Star Chevrolet - Houston, TX 77065 Dealer

The only things I could find wrong was the TPS light was on and the headlights were lightly scratched. They said they would fix them.

We agreed on $15K and I was ready to sign then they came back and said they made a mistake and it was $16K

I walked away.
That Blaze Red is a beautiful color! WOW!

I'm looking around some more and I think I can find a $15K with lower miles. Maybe 30-40. Maybe have to travel to get it.

BTW, is TVT still selling their kits or is there a parts list available?
Thx

It sure is - it is second only to yellow, isn't it. Pricing on our cars seems to be increasing a bit & so is somewhat unstable - but if you're prepared to walk away if it's not the deal that you want - good for you. And I would expect that you'll hear from the dealer again - were you dealing with a salesperson or the manager?

Now that's a deal I wish I found when I bought my N/A 2 months ago.

They had 2 XF Roadsters and got them mixed up I think. Also it seemed interesting that they had the "No Haggle" pricing but were haggling quite a bit on this car.

Yellow is cool and there's one out there but it's an auto. I'm definately going after the notchy 6spd.
