hi all,
I saw two crossfires, a silver coupe, could have been the silver blue. It was early morning light, so hard to tell. Saw you at thorndale off ramp from I290north, going east on thorndale and turning left at (i think) the 1st light . It was about 6:30/ 7am on or around 03/24/2010.
Also saw a red roadster going south on I290 (around thorndale) About 5 to 5:30pm on 03/30/2010. I waved from a 2001 Blk dodge truck 4x4 and the gentleman waved back.

I was in Palatine, Rand and Arlington Heights Rd, at the AT&T store at 2:00. When I pulled into the parking lot there was a black roadster w/ temp license plates parked. I parked on the other side of the parking island. It was still there when I left.

I left my card on the windshield.

Drove the car 2nd or 3rd time in months and parked at Oak Brook Mall, came back to a black A/T coupe by me in the Sears entrance ramp 2 or 3 weeks ago.

I thought I was the only Crossfire in Sun City Huntley. There is a red coupe that I've seen numerous times, that evidently garages in my neighborhood near me (and I can't it track yet), and yesterday there was a grey SRT roadster (I have a black SRT), that crossed rt47 from a jewel parking lot into Sun City....... com'n people who are you?

5/6/10 Sittting at the light, Fabyan & Kirk, Batavia/Geneva, in my truck. I look in my side mirror and spot a SSB coupe to my left & one car back, wave my hand with my head out the window, waving I notice it is Gary. Whistle & yell, his window is down, nothing. He must of been to busy thinking about his drink with FP at Redstone's.

I hope I get a least a nod if I spot you in my roadster.

I thought I heard my name just as the light changed and I got the green arrow. By then I couldn't look back and see who it was.
Sorry bout that but I didn't hear you whistling and yelling at all.
Glad ya posted this at least now I know now who it was.
If you were in a Crossfire I definitely would have noticed and waved and shouted back.

I saw a silver coupe about 6:30am Friday traveling south on 355. I was on at Maple and off at Joliet rd. South.

Also saw the Red coupe again on the Cleveland Brown Show on Fox.
LOL A prime time cartoon showing a Red XF Coupe. It turned into a submarine with duel props coming out from both sides of the exhaust. Way coool.

Same spot 294 by O'Hare between 4:15 and 4:30ish.

I was on a red and black Kawasaki. I don't drive my Crossfire very much except for autocross/track racing, salt/ice/snow, and taking the girl out.

Saw a black roadster yesterday on 83 and 22nd and another black one by CiCi's pizza in Downers Grove.
Silver in downtown Elmhurst automatic older dude driving around noon by the Panera on York and North

I drive a 01 blk 4x4 ram. Kinda looks like a big snarling ram with the hood scoops .
