Dealer near me was asking $10K over sticker for the first one or two they got. When no one paid that, they got real realistic quick. Now they have something like 25 of them just sitting there.

It's a nice looking car. Not sure why they aren't moving.

Perhaps just local to this area but, have yet to see one on the road.

You may be right but, that wasn't announced till recently and the Crossfire has been out for a while now.

The version you speak of too, will cost even more so if not selling at the coupe (or less) price, I wonder if the convertible will fair better? Hope so!

I think if your a sports car guy you want the extra Horses. 330 Hp in a car that small would help it sell.

I saw a picture the other day of the interior of the Crossfire next to the interior of the baby Mercedes SLK. It's the same exact interior. I mean not one item is out of place.

I wouldn't want to lease one! I leased many work trucks! My 2001 F-150 Supercrew is up in a few weeks! $17800 buy out!It cost me $600 a month for 3 years now nothing! I'm buying my New truck, it just seems better after 3 years when I own it! Gives me something to put down on another new one. My accountant would rather have me buy anyway! But its a good deal, if i only had a son now i could get him one for his 16 birthday! And i could get to drive It!

CT, consider me your 23 year old son on the west coast.

I'll take a white one with a stick.

I have written a lot of leases over the years. As a general rule, the only time it is a real advantage to lease, is when you are set up to write off all your car expenses on your taxes. Again: "AS A GENERAL RULE" JMO

CT, If you'd prefer an older more mature son that is closer to home, I'd like a copper color one with 6-speed.

Of course, anything my new dad buys me is fine!!!LOL!

The 330 horse ragtop should finally get DC some sales on a pretty neat ride.
