1. Has anyone ever used the strap on the back of the passenger seat for anything?

Didnt know it was there. I'll look when I get home.

2. If you are in a community that has grown at all since 2004, a lot of time is spent driving "off road" according to the navigation system.

Tell me about it! Still have fun with it, tho! Love the British female voice!

3. The umbrella hooks would be useless in the desert, but on a long trip they are perfect for hanging a grocery bag for trash.

NEVER thought of THAT! Gonna carry a bag there for that now that cool weather is here and the top is gonna stay up a LOT!

8. Many are wrong about the suspension/steering--this thing is truly on rails and has the best damper/spring/travel mix I have ever driven. As a former/current owner of other sports cars (Sunbeam Tiger, Jensen Healey, Fiat X 1/9, '92 Vette) and driver of friend's cars ('07 Carrera, '08 Vette, 350z, XLR), there are no flies on the Crossfire at any handling level.

Thanks for saying that. THis is my first performance/sports car and I sure am impressed. Ignorant but impressed.

9. Most comfortable 2 seater I've ever driven.

Me too.... but again, never been in one before.

10. There is no "blind spot" for those who know how to use mirrors (coupe).

Or at least for those who put the top down!

12. Until I got this car I never heard a 16-20 year old use the word "sexy."

I get that too! NEVER thought I could impress a kid. But honestly, seems like women 30 to 75 are more impressed by the Roadster that other groups are.
