Re: Curious about Crossfires
We've got an '07 with just over 7k on the odometer. Thus far, no issues have surfaced. This is our first venture into a 2-seater and the XFire is a blast to drive. I'd say that it's more of a touring sports car than an all-out performer, the SRT-6 being the exception. And any of the XFires are standouts when driven because they were never really big sellers for Daimler-Chrysler, which makes them somewhat rare compared to the 'cookie-cutter' variety out there (including the Nissan 350/370Z).
And if you're considering a roadster version, the XFire still is a sharp looking version with the top up. You'll never here anyone say that about a Nissan 350/370Z roadster! It's down right UUUUUUUUUUUUUUGLY! (IMO)
Besides, we like having something that hardly anyone else has. Hell, with the use of leasing, anyone can drive a Porsche, Vette, BMW Z4, etc. And you see these cars everywhere nowadays which substantiates my perspective.
