Re: lack of power
Amen, +fireamx! I'm getting sick and tired of listening to people whine about the car being underpowered. The Crossfire has plenty of power to do the job it was designed to do, which is be a sporty touring car. It is not now and never will be a hard-core sportscar. If you bought one thinking it was such, I feel sorry for you.
They way I see it you have three options:
1. Buy aftermarket parts to increase the HP to your liking. Don't whine about the price of said parts. Nobody's obligated to make cheap go-fast bits for you.
2. Sell your Crossfire and buy a more hard-core sportscar (SRT-6, 'Vette, Porsche, etc) or a Pony car (Mustang, Camaro, Trans-Am, etc). Don't whine about how much money you're going to lose on the trade. Nobody cares.
3. Stop whining and enjoy the car for what it is.
