Proud owner of '04 Crossfire!
 
Hey CrossfireForum! About 2 months ago I saw a beautiful looking '04 Crossfire on the website of our main car dealership and sent a photo to my dad asking him if it was a college car possibility since I have been asking him about different vehicles besides my Durango to take to college. I can't afford to fill up a vehicle that gets around 10 mpg with 4WD in college. Unknown to me, my dad thought that the Crossfire would be a nice college car for me and traded in his diesel truck for the Crossfire. I was introduced to the Crossfire after winter break, about 2 weeks ago, and haven't been driving anything else since unless it's crappy out. I absolutely adore the car, it is a huge upgrade from the gas guzzler that I started with. As a 5'3 person the car fits me perfectly! I really love the style of the car and hope to find a luggage set online if possible. I am still amazed that the car is mine, I have no idea what I did to deserve such a lovely car at 17 but I now know why my dad wants his vehicles spotless, I don't want anything preventable to happen to my Crossfire! I know that my dad's good friend and his wife live out in Colorado and his wife has an SRT-6 Crossfire that she races and loves, they really are beautiful cars, I don't think I've ever seen a Crossfire around where I live. I hope to have the Crossfire through medical school and beyond, it just seems to be perfect for me.

Glad you've found a car that you like and enjoy driving! I also bought my 04 crossfire maybe 3 months ago and have enjoyed it, previous owner did not take care of it as she should have and all the mods and fixing have been worth! Welcome to the family ;)

Welcome! do you know when it was last serviced? oil, filters (air, oil, and Cabin)
I have seen the luggage set/pieces show up on ebay.

I purchased my 04 back in October, and still walk outside just to look at it.
FYI with decent all season tires mine is pretty good in the Snow.

Hey welcome!

I bought mine this summer.

Many small things needed some love. Some of it took 2 minutes to fix. Some of it much longer but I am happy.

Make sure it's well maintained as previously mentionned and that it has good tires not some cheap knockoffs.

if you want a clue as to how meticulous the previous owner was check the cabin air filter.

mine was stored in the winter in the years before i bought it, clean Car with two mice mummies in the filter box.

Welcome! I found my Crossfire last summer. It's an '05 Black Roadster. Great car! Have fun with yours and be careful!

Thank you to everyone for the advice and warm welcomes, I'll be sure to ask my dad what the dealership checked and serviced. I do believe that the dealership did a full service/inspection on the Crossfire when it came in but it never hurts to double check! I can't wait until it gets warmer out so I can polish/wax the car and make it really turn some heads!
