Default Not Meant To Be!

Crashed My Crossfire Saturday
I think Its Totalled
Guy in a pickup slammed on the brakes and I responded too slow
and rear ended him....... front of my car is toast

Just got it 3 months ago

I was looking forward to cruzin with the group again

This was my second crossfire

maybe the last..................

Think Its time to cut my losses and go in a new direction
I just started paying on this crossfire loan and I fear it will be upside down
blue book is not that good on these cars have to wait and see.

Still have my Honda S2000
My Harley And the 66 Chevy Pick-up

Honda is in the shop getting a new Stage 2 competition Clutch and light flywheel
Think I may just fucus on it for a while

Maybe I will bring it out some time or the truck or bike

my garage was overflowing anyway

Glad your OK.
I'ld sell the bike, the rice and the truck and buy a SRT.
Well, maybe keep the truck. Just .02
Good luck with the claim. I'm sure it will work out.

Glad you didn't get hurt! Always sorry to hear an XF is gone. Magredvet has an SRT6 forsale and it is a good one, think about it. If I had a job I would be thinking about it.

That sucks! Glad you weren't hurt though. I saw the photo, it may not be totaled. Does the engine still run?

From the picture it looks like an N/A
No oil cooler that I am aware of, and I have had the front cover off.
The transmission connects into the radiator for cooling.
There is a cooling line for the power steering at the front ......

Yea the brakes are so much better on my S2000
thats why its my daily driver......
It also handles better
probably about 600 lbs lighter
but it looks like a 19yr old should be driving it ......LOL

I look more like I belong in the XF than the (ricer)
