Re: Why do the doors sound so cheap?
It's amazing the number of owners who have experience slamming doors on expensive cars at car shows, so much so that they realize the Crossfire is not built to the exacting standards of high end cars.
When I was in England I was told by an instrument technician friend of mine that he was at Lagonda if I recall correctly, watching an assembly technician, I'm sure he was not called an assembly line worker, who was testing an ash tray by pulling it out and pushing it in time after time. My friend said what's up and the guy replied that it did not feel as it should. After being told to try it my pal said it felt like it was on silk bearings. That part is OK the guy said but it does not make the correct kind of snap into the open and shut positions.
I guess the car may fail to start when it rained due to bad electrics but one could always rely on the ash tray to work smoothly and snap correctly into the open and shut position while you waited for a tow.
