I think the car reviewers who get picked to criticize the crossfire are the same guys who are used to review all the high dollar cars from europe. They've been spoiled with such toys made by porsche and ferrari, that the crossfire is just a turd to them.

But I have to agree with the clutch complaint, its always been a bit slippy and not enough grip. But that's the way the engineers designed it to be, only so it could be comfortably shifted as a daily driver and not a jerky street bruiser. Makes sense to me.

I hate car magazines and car reviewers, they never see the whole picture.
