Oh my goodness! Now I know not to let my wife borrow the car anymore. She always complains about the blind spots anyway. Sorry to hear about the rim damage.

I said do you want to tell me how you just hit the rear tire? She said, I pointed to the rear tire when I told you, I actually hit both. I never even looked at the front until 3 minutes ago. She hit both rims.

Arrrggghhhhhhhhh I know it's just a car but it's my car.
Take them to Rollos Racing off of Chimney Rock and Richmond.

They'll make them look brand new.



FYI, almost every story I've heard when an accident is caused by "a big hoopty cadillac" is usually complete BS. Unless it involved my brother, who used to DRIVE a hoopty cadillac.

Cathy was taking the roadster to Norwich CT this week.
2,200 miles of driving the Xfire, she would be hooked and want one of her own.
At least, that was the plan.


I was fine with it until I read this thread.

My wife would not drive the Crossfire because she was afraid she would scratch it and I would yell at her. I would have been mad for a bit, but as someone said, it is just a car and 37 years together was much more important. I lost her one year ago yesterday to cancer. Cherish them while you have them guys.

Sorry for your loss my friend.

One can always find a newer, hotter, car but a good mate, Priceless.

Just give her the Xfire with the damaged rim and buy yourself a new one.
Two are a lot more fun the one.



MikeR, "Cherish them while you have them guys." Words to live by. Sorry for your loss, also.

Does anyone have any pics of Chrome Stock SRT6 rims on and SRT6 ?

For the record, I never yelled at my wife, she is awesome and was the perfect choice for me minus the driving part.

Are you new to the internets? Don't judge me, this was and is all in light hearted humor and she is a women.

WAPCE---look it up.

It's all joking, go back and read it all before calling me out.
No worries,
