Then I tell them about all the reviews of " underpowered", and they look at me funny
To each his own, but I'm very happy!!
I'm 21, but my father(50) who nor do I think you I would classify as "old f*rts" says its quite underpowered. Granted he is used to driving 540's. And I am use to driving high 12 second low 13 second cars. Not including my beaters my crossfire is the 3rd slowest car i owned. The slowest being a 2000 Honda Civic Si, 2nd slowest being 2004 Acura RSX Type S, Then the crossfire. Power is okay. But its all what you are use to. But this car would be borderline perfect if it had the 3.5 dohc in the new slk350. Or I'd be happy with an aftermarket or even the 2.4L turbo used in the srt-4/pt gt turbo.
