My comment was in reference to my surprise that some "kids" were laughing at the Crossfire. I'm just wondering what they thought was funny. Even if it was a standard Crossfire, I'd be surprised that it would be laughed at. So, that was my question. What was the joke? What is funny about a crossfire? That it's not a civic with plastic crap all over it? That it's a unique car? That it gets more looks than just about any S2000? That there are fewer of them than there are M3s? Just wondering what was circulating through their mis-informed noggins. I've had more unique, custom, semi-exotic cars than many guys my age, and I've never seen more mixed reactions than I have with this car. Very interesting. I purchased one because I am a car guy. Unlike most of the general public, I knew what I was purchasing. I watched the development of this car since the first prototype hit the show circuit. I had a feeling the demand would be small and that prices would drop. I gambled and waited. In the mean time, I enjoyed a brand new G35 Coupe 6MT. Well, I was right and now I have a car that I almost paid $47.995.00 for a few years ago. I even had my name on a waiting list. . I'm the one that should be laughing... all the way to my garage!
