listen if you think that the XFire is better than a FORD you are WAY WRONG.

And everyday is not a race, if you are looking into racing everything on the road no matter what brand then you should reconsider and become a NASCAR driver.

The car is not slow, I have owned very fast cars and can tell you that the XFire though not a E55 Mercedes or an S4, its a pretty quick car with ample torque.

The Magazines are BullS**T when it comes to rating cars. They have problems with everything on every car. They were complaining that the Mustang has a solid beam rear axle as opposed to independent suspension and thats better than the XFire??????????? Also they'll name a car top ten today and in three months put it in a comparo and it'll rate last, the very same car that just three months prior they named top ten.

You just are upset that your car is not the quickness you expected, hey go lease a SRT6 and call it a day.

From owning many fast cars all my life from Porsche to Audi S4's i can tell you that the XFire lacks the punch of those cars but that's about it, you are discrediting the car completely and just commenting its nice styling when there's more to styling in the XFire. I'll leave it at that.

If you're not happy hey go and buy what makes you happy bottom line that's your cash on the line isn't it. Though dont go by magazines they have a tendency to name certain cars top ten when they are top junk.

And the XFire is not antique like soo many people claim, it's just a chassis, engine and tranny from an older model, which in fact the tranny is still being used by MB as is the engine in the CLK320 and E320 so older is not always a bad thing.

If i remember correctly the Mustang engine is a 4.6 liter which is OLDER than MB's 3.2 Liter V6. All they did was bump up the horsepower from 260 to 300 but it's the SAME ENGINE OLDER than MB's 3.2 which is from late 90's.
