When I bought the Crossfire, I knew it was a fantastic car and of course had very unique looks. BUT I didn't realize that EVERYWHERE I went people would be asking me about this car...give me a break! Haha. This car draws lots of attention and if you are not into that sort of thing, do not buy this car. For me, it is flattery that they like it so well. I have never owned a car that was more fun to drive (except maybe for my RX7, I bought in 82')...it has it all and as you have all said, you don't see one at every street corner. That makes it even more unique. By the way I noticed another thread in here about manual vs. automatic. Mine has a 6 speed and I do love it. Drove both the automatic and 6 speed but chose this one. I do believe, I made a good choice although the auto seemed like a good trans too. Again, never had so much attention as with this car.
