Default Car Show

I went to the Orange County, California "Cruise for a Cure" today. It actually rained in Southern California. This was the first rain in over a year, I believe, and of course it was on Show Day. I met "CREATOR". He was very interesting to talk to. There was quite a bit of interest in the Crossfire and it was strange how few people knew about them. It was a fun day, even with the rain. I didn't see any other Crossfires though. There were about 3,000 cars. Less than normal because of the weather. Lots of Prowlers, P.T. Cruisers, Vipers and vintage Mopars. Many have their own sections but lo be the only Crossfire. A rare bunch we are!

Just one Crossfire out of 3,000 cars. That's amazing. What a great feeling to have such an exclusive car. That is one of the many reasons I bought mine and I seriously never intend to sell it If I live to be 75 then I will have owned it for 30 years.

When did you find out about this event? I would like to have been the "other" Crossfire there.

Wink Re: Car Show

I have been promoting it for months in the car show section of the forum. This is a great show and is yearly. It is a blast because you can cruise the Fairgrounds, look at all the cars and everyone checks out your ride. I entered in February, of last year, because it fills up fast, even with 3,500 entries. I hope to see ore of you next year !!!

Who would ever want to keep the same car for 30 years?

I didn't say I wouldn't buy other cars in my lifetime. I simply said I would keep my Crossfire for a long long time. It might be the only one left if nobody else cares.

I was taking my step son to turn in an application at a wing place and they were having some sort of car show..a white crossfire was there and it had some performance sticker on it. I started talking to the guy and he was saying he has an 04' special edition RT...I was like WT ...he said it was a 350 hp version. I know it wasn't an SRT because it had the standard moving wing on it. I just listened to his nonsense and said cool..talk to ya later. Funny how people try to BS you when it comes to cars.

I believe them, but their probably talking about cars with a bunch of stickers on them - you know... those stickers that add 20 hp. You mostly see japanese imports with them.

I thought you knew I was joking, after all, I'm closing in on 38 years with my AMX.
If You truly love the car, believe me, the time will fly by before ya know it.

I sure wish I had kept my 1962 Corvette but I couldn't afford the insurance. That was on 1970! Besides it rode hard as a rock. We've come a long was baby. I'm planning on keeping my Crossfire for a long, long time. Usually the ones that had low production and were the hardest to sell become the rare collectors of tomorrow and if not, I still have a car that thrills my every time I see it and every time I drive it.
