Everytime I find something 'wrong' with my Crossfire (AC o'ring was out or the 'ratle' in the back--all fixed) and I get a little angry, all I do is go for a ride and start to count the stares--mysteriously all my anger goes away That wans't drool, that was a tear from his eye-- he paid double what you did for the Crossfire and no one looks twice at his car.

For all that say that will go away--I don't think anytime soon (especially for as few as I see on the road).

We are here in Colorado, not far from Aspen, Vail, etc., every kind of car you can imagine on the roads...nothing looks this good! The car has "Magic".

The Crossfire looks to much like a PT cruiser for my taste, I'll stick with my Jag XJS until they come out with a less roundish design..

PT Crusier - #$%^& - To each his own opinion. But I don't see it. Does look a little like a Pacifica though.

PT Cruiser? I know thinking it looks like a PT Cruiser is sort of an opinion, but I don't see how anyone could possibly think this. I can't see it at all.

For me, that's like saying a 2003 Chrysler 300M looks like a 1929 Hupmobile. Sure, windshield, steering wheel and four wheels! Otherwise, NO WAY!

:P Bugalou, before you write your opinions, please make sure your not drinking when you do, as it appears you were not seeing very good at the time!!!
By the way, at least the Crossfire, runs not like most Jaguars. Oh, that's right, Jaguar is owned by "FORD" so it fits right in the Ford theme, "FIX OR REPAIR DAILY", have another drink!!!

I have to disagree with this. Before Ford owned Jaguar, Jaguars had horrible, horrible problems. My parents have had 9 Jaguars in the last 15 years (it's the only car my dad will buy, until he got a RX330 for my mom always a fan of Jaguar, until the 2004 model. That damn thing is this year), and the quality has definitely continually improved. I wasn't awesome. My dad has the Vanden Plas, and it is absolutely ridiculous. Possibly the closest to a perfect car I have seen. It is one of the best looking cars on the road, it handles like a car 1/4 of it's size, it's stereo blows anything else I have heard out of the water, and the damn thing is faster than a Crossfire. Plus, we have had absolutely no problems with our past 3 Jaguars, and they never once had to go to the shop. Also, price the Vanden Plas out against a S500, A8 or 745, and the Jaguar is the better value by far...

oh yea, and the Crossfire still doesn't look like a PT Cruiser.
