I've just bought a 3 year Crossfire with about 29000km , and i search french forums about this car but unsuccessfully, and i'd like to have some contacts with people around the world, that's why i join you!
I'll post you photos of my cars during the week i think.

Have a good day!

Congrats and Welcome, I know you don't see to many Crossfire in France, so I suspect you will have a difficult time finding info there. There is one other French XF owner on here. He lives around Paris.
Check out the link in my signature....lots of XF info

According to my son who was in France, Germany, and Switzerland this past summer there are a lot of XFires there. He said that he saw more there than in a similar time frame in Canada, they seemed quite common.

Howdy, and welcome to the forum. Where in France do you live? I lived in neighboring Belgium for 3 years in the late 1980's. Let's see some photos of your car in a French setting!

Anthony, welcome to the forum. There may not be many Crossfires in France, but remember we're just a "click" away.

Welcome, Anthony,
I really enjoyed Paris when I visited there in 2001. The entire city is like a museum. Gorgeous. Loved the food, particularly those baguettes I picked up every morning... My wife has a PH.D. from the Sorbonne and has lived in La Defence a long time. Welcome to the forum.

I had a wonderful drive from Frankfurt to Paris, and then southeast to an old castle city whose name I can no longer recall -- back in 1999. I was back in Germany, the Netherlands, and Belgium with my wife in 2006 and thinking about how much fun it would be to open up a Crossfire on the autobahn. If you ever head east to Allemagne, you will have to tell us all what it is like to drive at 250 kph legally. We're all drooling at the opportunity.

And welcome to the forum and ownership of one of the coolest cars made.

ZiZi,

That's some very professional camera work . I haven't been able to convince any of my friends to hang out from a speeding car and take these kind of pictures for me.
