Bought my '04 on Dec 30, 03. It was fairly hard to get a used one then. Paid 100% full sticker and I giggled all the way home.

Got the 05 SSB SRT 6 in 06/19/2006 it was on the lot for almost a year and a half, it had a 125 miles on it, and it now has 18k. Yes its my daily driver, and I really don't drive it in the snow to much. Got a great deal on it at the time, paid 27k for it, and its almost paid off and plan on keeping it for awhile, what a fantasic ride to own and drive

Got my '05 Limited Aero Blue Roadster in July '07 with just 32 miles on the clock. Just a bit over 11,000 on her as of today - a nice long drive along the coast, top down, wind in my hair. But I totally forgot about sunscreen!! Don't worry, the sunburn is very light, just a light blush really. Feels good, too.

And don't anybody start heaving snowballs my way!!!

Leased my 05 roadster new in June of 2004 then bought it off the lease. Probably one of the first roadsters on the road at that time, I didn't see another roadster for months after getting mine.

As far as we can tell, Iamfink2 does have the first roadster to be sold at retail in the U.S.

His may also be one of the cleanest!

I am from Canada and we do not have much snow to heave, your buddies south of us took it all. On the west coast that have hardly any snow for the Olympics, must be a Yankee plan to ruin the games.

I've been using Scratchex on my Crossfire but I'm not sure it's working. It hasn't really removed the scratches, but it does seem to repel bugs.

We bought our 2006 new in 2008. The car had 15 miles on the odometer when I took it out for a test ride. I put 15 more miles on the car before making a ridiculous offer to the dealership. And a week later, they told me I could have it. I can hardly wait for the snow and ice to melt and the salt to wash off the roads so that I take the car out of mothballs and go for a spin.

I paid 25K for mine new back in Aug 2005. That was during the peak of the auto sales boom. I think it had a little less than 80 miles on it. Probably test driven plus they drove it in from another dealership. I didn't care!

My name is on the sticker. I leased my 2007 Roadster for 2-1/2 years, then bought it. Drove it daily until the purchase, so it has 47,000 Miles, but it took a rest this winter.

Bought my 04' in March of 04'. Think it had 3 miles on it. Boy the dealership didn't even have to sell me on it. Just called and asked if they had an Alabaster color on the lot and they did.

Drove right over and purchaed it. It now has 49K, is my daily driver. Paid full price, it was worth it. And I have loved every minute of each and every mile!
