Default The STARTECH Crossfire is no more...T-Boned. On the prowl for an SRT-6 or V8 swap.

Hey guys, some of you know me some of you are new. I had the Alabaster STARTECH Crossfire. I was T-boned by a moron. I'm OK, but my baby has gone to car heaven.

I took all my Startech parts off the car and my RennTech carbon air box. I'm on the prowl for an SRT-6 to do a STARTECH transformation on. So basically use my ST front spoiler, and ST interior bits. But I'll be selling off my RennTech airbox since it won't function on the SRT and the ST rear spoiler, if I find a suitable SRT.

I'm looking for a Cabrio or maybe a coupe that I'm going to paint Alabaster. Has anyone painted their SRT Alabaster? Any pics. Sorry but I love the color LOL

So anyone selling an SRT or know of one, in great condition, that hasn't been beat on like those morons on YouTube pulling hole shots and beating on the car.

Thanks

In loving memory of my Xfire which I babied for 8 years.

Really sorry to hear about your car MAYAman, I always liked your car.
I hope everything translates well to a new SRT when you find it.
Hope you weren't hurt when the accident happened.

Thanks guys, I'm OK for the most part but my neck is very painful especially when I sleep. And my left shoulder is making clicking noises and is painful all the time, shooting pain down into my left hand. sucks.

Mr. Miata, if and when I get an SRT the rear spoiler is yours if you agree to the price. I'll have to see what will fit an SRT or not. Does anybody have a link to Fubu's white SRT?

Also, if anybody knows of an extremely low mileage limited with a six speed in Alabaster I'd be willing to buy that. Just want another Crossfire. I drove my dads CLK430 and he offered to sell it to me cheap but to be honest I really love these damn cars. LOL

Wow.. sounds like a drivers side "T".. those usually dont turn out well. Glad she took care of you for the most part. Your car and the front spoiler was what helped me decide to go after the honda lip.

Sounds like you need to give me enough notice to get the bank loan approved on the rear lip..

Just to make it clear I'm looking for an SRT or a ultra low milage Alabaster coupe with a 6 speed.

Thanks Miata!

Hey sorry to get off topic but I love the pics of your car and I'm just wondering what suspension modifications did you do? H&R springs and KONI adjustables?

Yeah the car is built like a tank. Still makes me laugh how many people diss these cars. Morons.

Anyway, does anyone have pics of Fubu's white SRT. Been looking like mad and can't find a single one.

Sorry for loss of such a beautiful Crossfire but I'm glad it protected you! Good luck with your pursuit of a replacement. After 8 years of ownership and wanting another speaks volumes for the credibility of these fun cars.
