Re: Looking for some opinions...
When my wife and I went Crossfire shopping, we test drove at least 10 of them, of all variations. Auto, 6sp, Coupe, Roadster, etc... The 6sp was great driving but we knew it would get old. We learned about the auto-stick and decided to go with it and I am glad. Sure, in the Dragon a stick would be awesome, but that is only twice a year.
Be patient, the right Auto-stick Crossfire will come your way.
After the weekend in the Dragon, I find myself trying to tap shift my other automatic car! It really is addicting when you want to have a little fun.
Good luck, James
PS, don't narrow your search too much, I drove 100 miles to find the one I wanted.
