Default Re: Is the XFire worth the money

my wife wanted a convertable...I wanted another vette, but Z06 doesn't come in a convertable, so I told her we would get her a convertable, and the next yr, I would buy another vette. So, the search was on for a convertable XF...then those magic letters appeared on the scene...SRT...well, I said, she needs to own an SRT6 convertable...which we did find. Paid a little more than I wanted to for it 25K. Picked it up in November, she wouldn't drive it home, it was spitting snow. So, I jumped in and off to the interstate. Within the first 20 miles of playing with this car, I thought, maybe I don't need to save up for that Z06 after all...it was nimble, quick, and fun to drive. I had read the bad press being built on an old MB platform...well that old platform wasn't that bad...so 25K vs 63K for a used Z06. So, it isn't her car, the black Mazda 6 is, and this little baby is my new vette....er....XF....lol
