I have one of those '04 6 spd. models. You know, the ones that alot of Crossfire owners tell you to stay away from because these cars had the most problems.
All I can tell you is, this car has done nothing but perform perfectly for everyone of the 27,000 miles I've put on it since I purchased it new in April of 2005.
Sure the interior has a lot of plastic, but I really can't think of any car under 50K that doesn't.
This has been the "tightest" car I've owned, (and I've owned a few) it has no squeaks or rattles at all. I did have to "adjust" the rear hatch rubber bumpers a couple of times, but that's it.
I sure hope I didn't just "jinx" my good fortune.
