Hi everyone, i just went to my MB/DC dealer to test drive a crossfire roadster today. I couldn't wait. I have a Mini Cooper S at the moment, and love driving my car. Going from the Mini to the Crossfire is a huge leap, but the Mini is still a unbelievable car. I loved the power and the feeling you get from driving the Crossfire...everyone notices you when driving.
The clutch felt a bit weird, probably because i am not used to such a soft clutch. Still don't know if its a good or bad thing?! I Just want to know, what were your first impressions and thoughts about that first drive?

It took me a while to get used to the clutch and transmission. I've had my 2004 coupe for over 2 years now, and couldn't be happier. There is a ton of information on this forum, so take some time to browse it.

 

I drove the 6 speed first and didn't like the soft clutch either, so I then drove the 5 speed/Auto and it felt great! I've owned my limited coupe for almost a year now (only 5,000 miles) and have loved every minute of driving it.
