Alright, second post, hopefully correcting first post in wrong area! I'm 63 and live in Arlington, TX. Came across a 2005 Roadster on Craig's list and had to have it. My first 2 seater was a Fiat 850 back in the day. Then a 1978 Silver Anniversary Vette. And a weird little car called a King Midget. Decided I had one more restoration in me. Love the way the car drives. Grateful for a sight like this as it has already helped.

Wow, I'm jealous. I settled for a Blue Coupe with automatic with all black interior. If that's the one still posted there, with a manual transmission and Cool Vanilla interior; that's a really nice car. I would have been tempted with that one, and I live close.....

Missed it by THAT much.

Hello, and welcome. You have my car. Mine is a 2006, with the same interior. I have a good tip for the dirty Alabaster steering wheel

I thought you saw this.
https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...ing-wheel.html
I don't know how to use the features of this forum, but this should be a link to the post I made about this.
(I have some left-over paint. I will bring it to Eureka Springs in June.)

Yea, I may have, but it was probably in the batch of dead memory cells from a month ago.

Wayne I enjoyed the how to on the steering wheel. I had a 78 Vette with an "oyster" interior. If you even looked at it, it got dirty!

WHOHOO ! Does Delco make alternators and starters for our Crossfires / SLK320 / SLK32AMG ?

Can you cut us a deal
