Fat Gino, for me there was never a second option. After I saw my first Sapphire Silver coupe going up 95 I was knocked out by the looks. In my opinion, this was the first serious ,elegant, awesome looking car since the 63 split window corvette. I think it has more than enough power stock. After all I didn't buy it to race it. I bought mine to enjoy how it handles, rides and looks. In my view, this is the first true American 2 seater since the corvette that sets itself apart from any other competion in the catagories of styling,handling and luxury. I think it's destined to be an American classic.
Next, to change the oil, the filter is on top of the engine, right in front of the intake. The drain plug is on the bottom of the oil pan. You will need 8.5 qts of oil. They say that you should use 0-40w Mobil one.
Being in the new car dealership business for the last 44 years, I could have obtained about any car I could want but none have impressed me anywhere near as much as the Crossfire. I have owned Corvettes, Mustangs, 300Z's,450SL,GTO's,Camaro's,Cuda's,and even a Viper. By the way, the Viper was very fast but built with very bad quality parts and construction especially for a car that costs what that one did.
To me the Crossfire is totally unique and by itself in body lines, styling and interior design. It stands out like few other cars out there today.
