I have had a varied amount of cars in my time including BMW M3, BROOKLANDS BMW 5 SERIES, 1968 FORD MUSTANG, R32 NISSAN SKYLINE GTR PUSHING 500BHP, AND A FEW MOTOR CYCLES INCLUDING A SUZUKI GSXR 1100 BORED TO A 1360.
My point is i didnt buy my crossfire for out and out speed as i could of found cars that would go faster and handle better. i got it for its look and design. its defo not a slow car!! 0-60 in 6.5 which you can cut with a few mods and increase the top end.
Also as to being designed for european roads, what does that mean? im sure you have a few corners in the states as we have straight roads in europe.
if the top end and 0-60 is the only problem with the car then maybe he is missing the point of the crossfire.
what they meant by Euro roads is that mainly the autobahn, where the crossfire has pretty good high speed handling. the problem these days are that everyone just wants a car that has a great 0-60 ie under 5 seconds, but reaction time and proper shifting are the main elements in a 0-60, not getting a car that just has so much power that it doesn't matter that any random driver can just floor it and win almost all races. dragracing is just a stupid sport, if you can consider it a sport, why not just strap yourself toa rocket that'll cut off at the 1/4 mile
