I remember you posts, welcome back. I guess the next question would be how many have suffered withdrawals after getting rid of their Crossfires and just had to get another?

Probably meet the criteria got my wife's 05 Alabaster roadster in July 06 with about 9000 mi coming off a rental outfit joined the forum a little later and got a 05 SRT roadster in Nov 06 with 5200 miles and put about 1500 miles on it in two years then got another SRT 05 roadster with 4200 miles both are SSB and completely stock since then my wife's car now has over 82,000 mi (no real problems) and the first SRT now has over 22,000 mi (just replaced the pump) the second sits in storage under a cover with battery tender and has about 5000 mi due to warming her up every 3 or 4 months for about 50 mile spin maybe, just maybe the low milage will be worth selling some day if not my wife has enough Crossfires to last her a lifetime

I'll bet there is no other brand where so many owners own more than one. It can become an addiction.

Got my 04 in April 2007 with 17000 miles on it.
Found this great forum here in July 2007
I quickly became very involved here and was later given moderator status by Julian back in 2008.

FP invited me to my first meet at the Woodward Dream Cruise 2007 only a couple days after joining this forum.
He was the first one on here I met in person and we drove our Crossfires from Chicago to Michigan for WDC 2007.
We also met up with crossfirefrank in Jackson Michigan on the way.
We had 22 Crossfires in one place that year and I had a blast !!

Well I got hooked really fast on attending Crossfire meets and then began the planning of them.
My favorite is the annual "Tail of the Dragon" held in the Spring and Fall each year since Fall 2007
I've been to all of them since Spring 2008

I have met so many wonderful people here over the years from all across the US and Canada.
I never new buying the Crossfire would open the way to so many new friends.
Love the car, Love the people, Love the meets
I still have my 04 and now have 86000 miles and still enjoy it nearly everyday til the snow flies.

I'm gonna be here for years to come
I'm sure I will eventually be in the market for another Crossfire but for now its just perma grin and good friends here on the forum


Gary

I am still here with my 06 Crossfire SE. I will keep it until I am 140. Tuned by magnesium from Epsom Salts. "Me", not the car. It's tuned by me. Gary

Bought the Scooter for my birthday in '03. Stumbled across the forum a while later. Used to check the forum 4-5 times a day. It was such an event to speak with others that had caught the bug. Still pass by here a couple times a week hoping to hear something new. In the beginning seemed that half the guys had leased theirs. They disappeared en masse 3 years later. Given the way the prices for crossfires were dropping they thought they had made a great deal. Glad I still got mine. Seems like an old friend now.
