So, to answer your question, is to say, if you like it, enjoy driving it, and it is a toy, then by all means keep it. Things happen to all cars, especially, sports cars if you ever truely drive it like one....I love my two, and mod the hell out of them with only minor issues...a few sensor problems, but no real mechanical failures... enoy it...
As oledoc2u stated above, I'm one of those XFire owners that has had essentially no major issues with the vehicle. Sure, I've had to repair the breather cover oil leak on the engine, but that's a design/assembly problem and most likely will surface on every car eventually.

And I've had the plugged up water drain below the cowl cover above the HVAC blower motor assembly and had to clean out the compartments below the cowl cover plus the accumulated trash in the blower motor assembly. But again a design issue on the XFire and once known, easily dealt with.

But so far the car is a thrill to drive and always gets looks every where we go in it. And the vehicle is really a weekender for us, sorta a toy, and with barely 11k on the ODO, it should be a thing of pleasure for many years to come.
