Great to hear you are discovering the true nature of the Crossfire Mike. There are so many reviews that bemoan the lack of sporting character in the car but I doubt many of them are based on actual experience. This car DOES handle despite what the reviews suggest. I've ran mine with bog stock suspension on the track with Boxters, Caymans, 911s and all sorts of other 'superior' machinery and not been embarrassed. There is so much prejudice against this car here in the UK based on the nonsense in the motoring press.
