Hello all! I just tonight signed the papers on a 2006 Crossfire with 18.5k on the clock. I already learned so much from this site in doing research on the car so I have to give you my thanks! Luckily the one I bought already has the useless cupholder replaced with a storage bin (although that may have been the default option since it's a base model). As soon as I drove the car I knew I had to have it. 6 speed with low miles and is practically a brand new car for a very reasonable price! I'm sure I'll have some annoying questions as time goes on, but for now I just wanted to say hello and thank you guys for building a great community around a fantastic car!

Cheers!

Then let me be the first of many to congratulate you.
I have never been happier with any car in my life ( except for maybe the '67 Camero 327/350 hp 4 speed I had 1969 - 1974 )

 

Welcome and congrats on your recent purchase !!!

 

Welcome from the BlueGrass State , injoy the new ride !

 

A black base coupe is my favorite. How much did you spend if you don't mind me asking. It helps to give us an accurate value of our cars.

 

Congrats and welcome! Enjoy your new Xfire

 

I paid asking price of $13988. I could have haggled some but felt the deal was good enough as it was. I also ponied up and extra $2k for a 3 year 48,000 mile warranty I hope to never need. So all in all I probably paid a little too much but I think it was well worth it.

 

Congrats man! To be honest I've owned several bimmers, a 993, 968, an my current S2 cab and I love the Xfire best of all. Its not as exciting to drive but overall its my fav car ever. The looks and comments I get from other drivers here in Greenwich is priceless.

 

A little on the high side... But it is very low mileage. The true value is what it is worth to you.

 

Welcome to the forum and congrats on your purchase!

 

Congrats and welcome to the forum!!!!

 

Welcome congrats and good luck..

 

Welcome to the forum. Where are you from?

 

I'm in Tulsa, OK

 

welcome aboard....enjoy your new ride....plenty of reading on here that will help you, but it sounds as if it has already paid off. Glad the prices are moving up a little. That isn't all bad for the future. It should stay in that range for awhile I would think. But, hey, it's a sports car and it is fun, that is what counts.

 

Congrats and welcome to the best car forum on the net. Mine has over 100k now and I'm still smiling. It's a permagrin for sure.

 

Thanks for the warm welcome!

I definitely could have paid less, but I still feel like I got a great value for my money and don't regret it one bit! Honestly, I had all but forgotten Crossfires even existed during my car search until I randomly happened across a different 2006 with under 50k miles in my area for just under $12k and decided to start doing some research. After reading a lot on this forum as well as other resources I decided it was definitely the car for me and went about finding the best one in my price range in my area. Even though some options like heated leather and a bit nicer sound system would be nice, I think I actually prefer the total black color scheme of the base model personally.

 

Welcome aboard and Happy Holidays!

 

Yes me too, we are the lucky ones that stumble to this great car somehow!
Congrats, welcome, and have permagrin New Year!
post lots of pictures your black beauty and come to Easter GTG …

 

Congrats on your purchase and welcome aboard! They are worth what your willing to pay! Mine has a couple small imperfections .. looks like maybe a couple hits from hail.. . but the price was right on her and those can be fixed. I have zero regrets and I hate car payments.. lol. Nice to find a new member in the nieghborhood! I work at 61st and North Lewis.
Enjoy the ride, I know I do every day I turn the key!
