You see almost all videos on youtube featuring a Crossfire, guaranteed there will be one fool who has to quote that "famous" Jeremy Clarkson line, that's years old.
Add to that (in my country at least) there's alot of "badge snobbery" plus sheep mentality. The general public prefer to stick to their well known German / European / Japanese mass produced brands, such as VW. BMW. Audi, Mercedes, Honda, Vauxhall etc. Their "safe" option - not frequently breaking from the mould.
The Crossfire has MUCH more style, character... plus class. Plus doesn't look like another generic vehicle, that 95% of the rest of road users prefer to be seen in! Perhaps it's good (for us) the masses still have on their blinkers !
