4 Years Ago
4 years ago today I drove to Youngstown Ohio to pick up my 05 Graphite roadster, 13 hours round trip. 30,000 miles later; still just love to drive this car.
Still read the forum, but don't post as often as I did. Only problems I have had with the Crossfire - fix the heated seats and the passenger seat switch needed to be replaced, that was pricey($577) but thats it. & 2nd set of tires
Lack of space is getting to me - would do Jag XK again but closest dealer is 2.5 hours away which was why I returned the 1 I had after the lease ran out. Test drove a 2010 Vet last month - nope still don't like them. Haven't driven anything that I like as much as the Crossfire since.
My wife still thinks I am crazy for having this car but every time I talk about something that has more room - she says " what are you doing - you love your car"
And a huge Thanks to all of you for giving me 4 years of enjoyment and help on this forum. it's almost as much fun as the car itself.

Have a great celebration. It is nice to get a reminder once in a while about the members that have had theirs for many years or since new, and still have the same passion for them. Not many owners of other cars can say that. It is a testament to the uniqueness and still current design that this car has. Enjoy your 4th.

Well I guess I have an addopted child on my hands. My 07 Roadster has only been with me a week and I find it just a fun as my 07 Harley Ultra Classic. It is hard to figure which one I want to drive/ride. This car is great. All I need to do now is get a new set of tires for the front. I snugged up the breather cover and the oil leak stopped. Spent a few days detailing the car and did the top With the Ragg Topp kit. Car looks like new.
Happy B-Day

Graphite Crossfires are the prettiest. I've had the roadster since April 2005 (new) and the SRT6 since January 2008. My toughest decision is which one to drive when I go out.

Happy b'day to you with your Crossfire! I am only 1year +one month into this love affai with this car. When I found my '08 Limited Silver Roadster I knew it was meant to be. I even love just looking at it. So - is there some kind of crazy gene that we owners share?
