I am in the final stages of locating a Crossfire to purchase. My plan is to buy a automatic. However, I am undecided on the tire selection. Anyone have experience with the Continental all-season relating to handling & wear? Also, any opinion if they will wear better than the Pilots'? I don't plan on any high-performance, hard driving. Nor do I plan to drive this car in the winter (Ohio resident). I'm looking at this as being more of a touring car.

I also talked to a friend who owns her second SLK. She told me that the SLK has a monitor that tells her when to change the oil. Does the Crossfire have this also?

Thanks again for your feedback.
