You should buy one just to **** off your ex.
Well, I'm from Spain. I know crossfire has a lot of parts of SLK320, a solid car. But I don't kwon that almost the mechanical components comes from Mercedes. Searching about this, the six-speed manual gearbox is not used by Mercedes, although it source from MB.
This give me an idea about the Xfire touch and reliability. With this body and the mechanical parts, it must be an outstanding and excelent vehicle, elegant and with a unique style. American cars look exotic for an european driver... but chrysler has made a great job with this car: compared with the SLK320 body, the mercedes car is tasteless.
I think this too Goldwing... I should buy it to **** off her
and to enjoy, of course!
Thanks to everyone for the help!
