Damn, what a bunch of emotions in text :roll: Well my Crossfire is staying mine. Yes, Ive noticed the brake dust, but I have no odd noises of any kind, and no windnoise whatsoever. My glove box lock is fine, my window buttons are correctly configured to roll down if you push the bottom and go up if you push the top. My CD player is the updated one, I haven't hit any curbs with my wheels, no bubbles in tires. No water in headlights, no sagging seats. Still looks showroom new

I haven't had it serviced at the local dealer yet so I can't comment on the service yet. I will make an appointment first though.

Good luck to those leaving the CF community, I still love mine and its the best car I can think of for the 30k I spent. It may not be made with the 05 SLK parts but its full M-Benz and is the tightest driving car Ive ever experienced. Its not for everyone but its the weirdest, coolest car ive ever driven, or owned. 8)
