Nothing feels like a manual 2 seat swb car with rear wheel drive (whether front or mid engine) . When the price (new) reached a level where one could be had for half the price of anything comparable with all the modern amenities, a Mercedes drive train, and a lifetime power train warranty, the question became how one could not buy one. I'd have bought these specs even with a Daewoo or Kia badge. I feel the same way with respect to the used Crossfire market and if it were up to me I'd own another. My wife, however, says four cars are enough for any one guy. She's right of course, and if she didn't put the brakes on I'd own a dozen.
