Yep... no power steering. I never understood why. I always assumed it had something to do with the rear engine. But there are plenty of Porsche with rear engines and power steering.
Also the front bumper had to be a certain height for the USA. His way of fixing that problem was to raise the front suspension. Not having the car lowered to where it should be is part of the reason for the handling to. Alot of people now have lowered their DMC's and I am told it makes a bigger difference. Had a chance to drive a lowered DMC not to long ago but the weather was not cooperating.
They don't make good looking cars like that anymore! The DMC is a car that has looked great for 30+ years and will still look great and ahead of its time 30 more years from now. I am hoping the same will hold true for the Crossfire. I hardly drive mine anymore and saw a black one on the road. I did a double take thinking it was some fancy exotic sports car... then realized it was just a crossfire. They are so rare and different that they easily catch the eye.... even my eye and I own one!
