I have never owned a convertible before my Crossfire. I have what my son has called "bionic ears". He is an audio engineer. I can hear any squeak, hiss, jiggle that does not belong and I do not find the noise in the Crossfire to be a problem at all. I feel as snug as a bug in a rug in it. The only problem I had was with the factory sound system which skipped when I drove over the slightest bump.

I sent Christmas E-cards this year with a picture of a friend (male) posing on my car. I labeled it as "Mr January 2007". You would not believe the response - everyone wanted to know about the car yet no nibbles to sign the provocatively posed Mr. January.

My vanity plates say "LiMyFire" and last week a crew of firefighters pulled up behind me and gave me several new grey hairs by honking their horn quite loudly - they were not on a run - just playing.
