... still though we have some years before we need to start worrying about that.
Well, the advantage of this car is that it shares virtually every single mechanical part from the R170 which was manufactured in droves from 1997 to 2004. That's 7 years in addition to the 3 more years for the Crossfire. A total of 10 years for one car platform. One car!
I don't mean to be cocky, but we're not in half as bad a situation as other cars, such as the Honda Insight, or original Toyota Prius, Mazda RX7, Nissan 300ZX, etc. Our car looks unique, but it's really only skin deep.
