At my ripe old age of 53, this is the first auto transmission I've ever owned and I accept that any initial lag in response is primarily due to that. But once it catches gear, this magnificently agile car shoots down the road with a wonderful, yet dignified ROAR. There's plenty of power under the hood.
I've never quite understood why so many people feel this car needs to be a rocket. As for me, riding a mere jet is more than fine, thank you.
Amen Brother. LOL.
I feel the same way. The car has plenty of power and it puts it to the ground in very nice way. I also don't understand why some owners want to turn off the traction control, That has saved me a couple of times from a nasty spin. If the Crossfire had much more power it would not be such a GREAT daily driver. If you want a race car then go buy one. If you want a fun, fast stable car... Get a Crossfire.
