Default Just not pushing the right buttons!!

Well, as the title says, Just not pushing the right buttons!!

I have had my crossfire coupe now since december 2011 after part x'ing my then BMW Z4.
The reason I swapped was because I had been experiencing pain on and off in my left leg while using the clutch so I thought its time for a change, why not go back to an auto.
I had liked the shape of the Crossfire since it first hit the roads of the UK so I put that on my list of hopefulls along with a Jag XK8, Nissan 350Z, Lexus/toyota Soarer twin turbo (which I have previously owned) and Toyota Supra twin turbo (also previously owned).
Anyway the Crossfire I now own turned out as the best deal at the time so I bought it, but since then my expectations of the car are gradually going down hill.
I am used to some oomph in my cars and sadly the Crossfire isnt living up to expectations. I did read up about them before I bought it, going on how people said how quick and nippy they are and how they bring a smile to your face. Its not that there is anything mechanically wrong with my car because I test drove several before mine and they were all the same performance wise.
So now I have a big decision to make, keep the car and hope I can change my mind about it or start looking for a proper sports car. Maybe if I'd gone for a roadster which looks more sporty things would be different.

has anyone else thought this about a car they have previously owned??


Don't get me wrong it is a quick car but not what I'm used to driving
