Did you order the code red?
You're goddamn right I did!!!!
Anyway, to the OP, get yourself a nice car to learn on and keep for a few years. For 5 grand, you have quite a few options. Enjoy the ride...

Actually, I think you would get more people saying "is that your parent's car?" if you go with a Crossfire.
It looks like a mid-life crisis car.
It's not too bad of a car, front and sides look fine, but the rear is fugly.

Yea!!! I bought the Crossfire. It is currently sitting in the driveway in a huge storm though so I can't really have too much fun with it at the moment. I'll put some pics up as soon as the rain stops and my camera is done charging.
