Hello from WV
Hello all. First time poster on any forum.
A few weeks ago my daughter called and asked me to assist her in purchasing a 1973 Karmann Ghia drop top off E-Bay. I tried to disuade her by showing her some late model convertables available locally. One of the local cars we found was at one of the local Chrysler dealers. A beautiful yellow 2006 limited roadster with only 1900 miles on the clock. I have been personally aquainted with the salesman there for a number of years and knew I could broker a good deal on the car, however she was not interested in anything but the VW, so we walked away, but for the next couple of weeks I couldn't get the car out of my mind, Ahh driving top down around Bar Harbour in October, I could just see it...
Last week I returned to the dealership with my wife. THE car was still there, we took a ride with the top down and.....well I'm sure this is all too familiar to many of you on here, but Needless to say I bought the car. My wife even likes it, and I have not been so enamored with a vehicle since my 1967 Shelby GT 350. It's a shame though that I now have to sell my jeep Rubicon, my motorcycle, couple of cameras, a few guns, etc. I think that's why my wife like the Crossfire so much.

Re: Hello from WV
Congratulations on your yellow Crossfire. I have a 2005 yellow roadster and I love it.
As a former Fairmont resident for 16 years, and a Marshall and WVU graduate student, my suggest is to sell the other cars, boats, film cameras, and anything else to get the Crossfire, but never, never, never sell the guns.
