Well its official, I am the owner of a Brand New 2004 Chrysler Crossfire. I drove all the way to Xenia, Ohio to get my Graphite/Cedar 6-Speed. Final price was just about $22k out the door. I am so excited. I have all kinds of plans, starting with the navigation and stereo. I am also looking into the McCulloch 8000K H7 kit, that will probably be my next mod. I will post a few pics taken from the dealership tomorrow. I was a little concerned about going from my SRT-4 to the Xfire but after driving for over 200 miles already I have no regrets. This is the car of my dreams...


EDIT: I uploaded the pictures that were taken at the dealership. For some reason the first one showed up like three times. I will figure out how to fix it later...

 

that's exciting! congrats again...i'm glad it all worked out.

now enjoy that ride!

 

$22k OTD that's a great deal! Congrats and drive carefully.

 

Congrats on the new ride and going from an SRT-4 maybe a step down in perf, but overall, a step up in class! The car handles very well IMO, considering its supposed to be a mix of lux/perf and with some mods, can be made to handle even better. I too an looking into the HIDs and I already have the Magnaflow muffler ordered and an appointment for window tint. Good luck with your new ride and BTW, how did you get a brand new 04'?

 

It was a leftover '04, that's why I had to drive to Ohio to get it. I haven't checked the build date yet but I think the dealership got it right before the '05s and just sat it on the showroom floor. They still have one more left, its an '04 Alabaster/Auto. My mom fell in love with it and is trying to talk my dad into trading her miata in on it. I doubt it will happen but its such a great deal. I think they are asking $23,250 since its an Auto. I still can't believe I picked mine up. I worked so hard to get it and searched for nearly 2 months to find the exact car for a price that I could afford...

 

Congratulations! I'm sure it was worth the wait, that was a great price! The thing about having a new '04, the 05's don't look any different, so it IS like having a new one, no one will be able to tell from the outside!

Happy and safe motoring!

 

Buying an '04 was the only way I could afford it. College has put a hole in both my pockets and my parents. I planned on buying one after I graduated but I couldn't pass a deal like that up....

 

Ital!
Good going. On Saturday, a friend of mine, after taking a Crossfire for a test drive, promptly traded in her Mini Cooper for the last 2004 6 Speed on the lot. She got a great trade in value on the MC and picks up the Crossfire (Black) today.

The 2004 6 speeds are probably getting hard to find. This particular dealer just has one 2004 left and it is a white automatic.

 

I found 10 that fit my criteria (Not Red/6-Speed) within 250 miles of Indianapolis. A dealership in Ft. Wayne, IN had SIX total left. I believe only one was a 6-Speed and it was black with the all black interior. I'm sure they would do just about anything to get rid of their inventory. I had them talked down to $21,500 just over the phone. I opted to pay a few extra bucks and get the color combination I wanted. To me it was worth it...

 

Congrats to your ride! I know exactly how you feel. It took me almost 2 years waiting as well. I had to finish my study first.
Like you I bought a year-old showroom car. But here the prices are slightly higher than in US. I paid 35k$ (metallic/auto) instead of 44.5k$ (current $ rate). But I'm sure the fun is the same!

Enjoy it...

 

Congrats one the new ride, hope you enjoy it. I just did the opposite lol, a few months ago. But for 22k, it is one hell of a nice car.

 

Bullseye,
Do you still have the xfire? I love my SRT-4 and I don't plan on letting it get away. I consider this as "letting my bro borrow the car for a very long time." Give me a few more years in school and I will have my SRT-4 back. Then I will be able to put the time and money into it that it deserves...

 

Yes I still have both of them. I drive the SRT-4 more now, but do take out the crossfire once in a while. My uncle may be interested in assuming the lease of the crossfire, so it may be gone soon.

 

Are you on SRT forums? I've been on there since it was started over two years ago. Its one of the best auto forums on the net.

 

Sure am, I am also Bullseye there. I used to be mach3turbo there when the forum started.
