Say whut? What makes you think I don't like the car? My commute this morning was 1 hour and 57 minutes to go the awesome distance of 33.5 miles. I didn't have to clutch once. I was lovin that. And the Crossfire was so quiet I could hear the stereo. I'm starting to figure out downshift timing with the transmission and trailing throttle oversteer with the chassis. The power seats allow me to get the thigh support just right, something I couldn't do with the S2000 fore / aft and seat back angle adjustment.

Sorry you don't have a decent dealer service department in the heartland. Here on the coast it doesn't seem all that unusual.

And the car is going back to my dealer Thursday morning. It seems the ***** at Town Fair Tire didn't know what they were doing with the free alignment when I had the new tires installed last week. There's a slight vibration between 50 and 60 mph. It fades to nothing above and below that range but is pretty noticeable in that 10 mph window. I regret it every time I let someone other than my dealer touch my cars. I'm going to have it realigned and have the balance on all four wheels checked.

Town Fair Tire chain stores truly suck. Not only did they screw up the alignment or balance (how hard is it), they nicked one of my front wheels. Not badly but, any defect gives corrosion a place to start. I was pissed. All four wheels were pristine going into that tire change. They offered to have the wheel refinished in a day but after two days the work wasn't done and I took the wheel back and told them I'd have the work done at my convenience and present them the bill. To my surprise, they agreed to pay.

To add to the saga of incompetence at Town Fair Tire, I had brought the service writer out to the car and had him inspect the wheels before they changed the tires so that he could verify that they were perfect.. I then told him I'd hold him accountable for any damage. They still took a divot out of my wheel. I also grabbed the service order before he gave it to the techs and wrote the lug nut torque spec and the tire pressure on it in nice large print. He assured me they always torque to factory spec and check the door plaque for tire pressure. Well, the lug nuts were (over) torqued to who knows what spec and the air pressure in all 4 tires was 40 PSI. Needless to say, from now on, the tires will only come from Tire Rack and my dealer will be the only one who touches the car. Pretty sad when the monkeys at a single purpose tire store can't change a freaking tire properly. They did manage to get the old rubber off and the new tires on the wheels. I guess that counts for something. Not much, but something.

If your dealer is like Town Fair Tire, I feel sorry for you and understand the self defense response.
