Default Finally, after a year of planning and waiting!

I have my own '05 Crossfire to call my own. Alabaster, limited, stock. Only one I could find anywhere close to Nashville, and I got it on Saturday. Decent price, too.

It took long enough, but I finally have my baby, and baby got back!

welcome - it seems to keep its thrill aspect even after the initial impact wears off!

I've had mine for nearly 4 months now, and I'm still as giddy about it as the day I drove it home.

GPF, Welcome to the forum. I've got an alabaster XF also. Haven't driven it for over two months thanks to our beautiful weather. Today was sunny, the streets were bone dry, and I just couldn't take it any longer, I had to take it out, even if it was only for about 5 or 6 miles.
This car can be a blast to drive no matter how fast, or how slow you want to cruise. I'm sure you're going to enjoy it. Good Luck!

I've been a member here since mid 2005, and I've been chomping at the bit to get my new ride long before then.

I was out boogying around today and headed to the old rich person's cemetery here in Nashville to take some shots of the car in an 'interesting' location. You know, goodbye to youth, goodbye to hair.

Here's three of them, and one outside the house.

Now if you've said goodbye to your hair, then you've bought the wrong car. That would have to be a Corvette.
