Figure the odds on that! Chances are they will at least be car people but most of US are nuts.

Great story, buddy! Probably driving with the switch in "W"!

I see many quizzes in your future!

Trying to decide if I would like that or not. For one thing I would no longer be the guy with the coolest car on the street, there would be two guys with cool cars. Secondly it would seriously harm my "avoid eye contact at all cost" mantra that I live by. Talk to a neighbor, UUUGH!!!!

The house across the street is for sale now and the one next to us is going on sale in August or September.

A Red Crossfire showed up about 1000' West of us about 2 months ago. Almost always has it's spoiler up, it's lowered, and it has nice looking aftermarket wheels on it. I think it belongs to a guy in his late teen's or early 20's because every once in awhile I've noticed other cars there, and a few guys playing basketball on a movable backboard in the Church parking lot next to the house.
I've been meaning to stop one day when I was in my Crossfire and say Hi, but the 3 or 4 times I've driven by and saw em playing basketball, I'm always in my "beater" Honda.
My only complaint about another Crossfire in the neighborhood, is I don't think the car has been washed since I first saw it.lol

Funny you mention that Carl.

A week ago I noticed the guy down the street from me had a Blaze Red 2004 sitting in his driveway. Finally I was able to catch him outside and stopped. He just bought it off Craigslist.
Exact twin of when I bought mine. The car turns out to be in the same 6000 series vin numbers. I will have to check and see how far apart they were built.

Two cool cars in the neighborhood doesn't bother me.

Just be sure you don't go into the wrong home. Just imagine, driving your 'other' car, you swing into 'your' driveway and run into the house. OOOOps! Your in the wrong house and the situation is super embarrassing. Now how do you explain all the various scenarios to the coppers (or a mad husband). LOL

Hmmmm? Wives who like Red Crossfires, right next door from each other, this could lead to interesting things. At least you can save on group buys.

I'd only make that mistake if the "other" house has a hot wife.......

Found that this Crossfire belongs to a young lady who is going to use it as a "company"car...she has a K cup coffee business... I directed her to the
forum and invited her to the Fall Dragon...she appears to be a "car" person..she has put red leather inserts in her seats and has painted the rims a brown/red (?)... Carl
