I doubt that you cab find a place that rents Crossfires. Here in the states, the vast majority of rental places only rent current year cars. There are a few places that rent used cars, but they are not plentiful, and finding a Crossfire at one would be unlikely. Not to say that one does not exist, but it would be an interesting search to find one. Give me a shout when you are in Florida, and I will try to come down and visit.

I guess the rental places will concentrate as you say on current year models. Best bet is that I'll be driving the mustang. Absolutely, would be cool to see some cars and a true forum member irl. Would be cool to see the conversion car aswell.

Have a good one to all of you.

Great job on Jim's SRT 55 Rudy. The engine fits like a glove. The acceleration is awesome. Soon Jim will be at the track with time slips having the fastest Crossfire in the USa...... world.

Good to meet you Rudy. I can't believe Jim wouldn't just hand me the keys.

Not my Ashley. I drove her SRT up to see Rudy and Jim. My car is at the dealer, hopefully getting a new intercooler and manifold gaskets.

it will change your status to go to true slicks Jim...but, hey, you may need to, to hold that beast. It is capable to pull the front end....so, what will you have to "re-enforce" next? Only some track time will tell....good luck...can't wait for a video run....Randy, get your camera and get to the track...
