It's a rare car.
 
It's approching 1 year and I have yet to see another white Roadster. For that matter, I've only seen a couple Roadsters of any color and just several coupes.

Isn't it fun to own something cool and unique?

Beep,
I live NW of Cincinnati. I've seen one other white roadster since I've had my 06. I've got a friend with a white coupe. That's about it for the Alabasters.:cool:

Hey Beep,

I owned a Yellow '05 Roadster from April of '05 until June of '08 at which time I got another Yellow '08 Roadster. While I was searching for my second Roadster I learned that only about eleven percent of all Crossfires sold were either Yellow or White (and White was dropped from availability in '08).

In the US only Roadsters were sold in Yellow. If we take into account that both the Coupe and the Roadster were available in White it is not surprising that you have a difficult time seeing other White Roadsters as they are by default a rarer breed.

All I can say is if I didn't own a Yellow Roadster (which of course IMHO is the best color:rolleyes: ) I would have a White one. So welcome to an exclusive club my friend and as far as I am concerned; Less Is Better!

I consider you to be a slightly more pale version of mine and welcome the company! Enjoy the exclusivity Brother! Hey at least we ain't BLACK, Aero Blue, SSB, Red, Graphite or Silver! (Although Silver is pretty rare too)

(Hmm did I just paint a target on my back:rolleyes: ?) It is good to be different!

Stay safe my friend and enjoy the exclusive ride, we are in good company; Together!;) ...


Respectfully,


Paul (MisterTaz)

LMAO! I wondered how long it would be before I got a rise out of you:p

I just added that to get attention;) ~ I'm feel'n lonely up here...

Truth is I'd take a Roadster in any color; Yellow got me so much attention for the first three years I just wanted another.

I'm glad to see that your heart is still work'n ~ I hope your blood pressure didn't jump too far;)

I gotta run 'cause My Bucket is full!:p LMAO!!!!

Stay safe...

Proud Aero Blue owner, NEVER take it out without getting complements on the color & of course it had to have the two-tone eggshell white & slate gray interior & had to be a automatic, MY choice of course.

Re: It's a rare car.
 
The first Crossfire I looked at seriously was white ... not a pearlized white everybody has ... but WHITE.

After seeing it, just had to have one of these cars.

Re: It's a rare car.
 
Like Dwight above, the first Crossfire I ever saw was white & I had to have one, too!
So now I do!
And then I learned about the SRT & had to have one of those, too.
But they don't come in white.
They do come in an excellent shade of blue though:D !
To this day I still have not seen another white Crossfire anywhere I've traveled (except to the Dragon!).
Haven't seen another SRT in this state either, for that matter..........

Re: It's a rare car.
 
There was a white 2004 coupe for sale for the longest time in Grand Rapids MI -- it might still be there. The sales guy seemed ready to take any offer. I looked at it twice. The good news, it was a Crossfire. The bad news, white is a boring color and almost as hard to keep clean as black. But a shiny black car is beautiful and a shiny white car is...hard to tell the difference. So graphite and machine gray are the correct choices.

Nah nah nah.

Re: It's a rare car.
 
Not that rare, first x-fire in my town was a white one with the slate & eggshell interior. Was on lease for 2 years, now gone so I have the only roadster in town, there is one other red cpe. Drove to Dubuque Iowa last summer from Tomahawk, Wi, quite a distance, round trip I never seen another crossfire!!.

Re: It's a rare car.
 
I feel like i always see crossfires on the road, but i think it is just that they are very noticeable.

I went on to count and tally how many "noticeable cars" i see on the road in week.

I counted 2 crossfires, 3 Lamborghini's, 2 Ferrari 360's, 1 Ferrari 430, 12 Porsche 911's, 3 Porsche Turbos, 2 Porsche Caymans, 8 Porsche Boxsters, 1 Audi R8, and 1 Nissan GT-R.

Talk about rare. :)

Thanks,

Justin

You won't like Colorado either. We don't have leaves yet (another week or two at the soonest). However, no bugs, humidity or backlash from hurricanes. ;)


BTW, RED FTW!
