you have to be a oompa loompa to fit in the car. lol. im only about 5'6 but when you can't open the doors all the way it sucks. and i think the power needs to be boosted on the xfire to at least around 250, then maybe more people will respect it. all i ever read from stupid car magazines is complaints about performance, just my 2 cents

If we wanted full race cars we could buy them. these are for the eye catching effect with some speed.
I know people that have had the fastest car in town two weeks later they aren't close . so men with the most money will win 9 out of ten times.

Amen to that Cyril. I took mine over to the dealership just to talk shop with, the mechanics at Power Valencia, Chrysler. That conversation lasted all about 3 seconds. It went something like this," Bla Bla Bla? I don't know ask the Mercedes People." Well thank you very much. I think these so called 5 star dealerships should invest intraining there mechanics on there new Hummmm...Kit Cars. Well what the hell is it. It's not a Chrysler, and its not a Mercedes. I think we are going to be screwed in Limbo.

Ya, I had thought so too. But the couple of dorks that I had talked to were older guys who in my opinion didn't really care for white dudes. Espeacially a younger guy with a cool looking car that they wished they had themselves. One of the guys said "I can't help you" pretty much as I was walking through the door. It totally sucked. It wasn't anything major, I actually had some idea's and all I wanted to do was see if it was even possible to do them. So Oh well.

Just curious...do you think an MB dealership would work on the car just to keep MB from getting a bad reputation for quality, when the CF breaks and no one at Chrysler can fix it, after all, it is their drivetrain. I have had the car less then four weeks and I am wondering if I should even let Chrysler change the oil, based on the comments I have seen on this forum.

I've never gotten the thing about the car being too small. I'm 6'3", 210 and it fits me fine. Granted, I'm not sprawled out all over the place, but I'm not cramped either - it fits tightly, like a comfortable broken-in glove

I have had NOTHING BUT GOOD results everytime I have gone to my dealership and they have even changed my oil.
Had a window alignment problem...............FIXED!! (with a little discussion, I have to admit)
Had a CEL=MAF problem................FIXED!! Right to the code and replaced, ASAP!! NO questions!!
I think my car looks good, I love the attention I get when I am in it and it has been almost three times the speed limit.......................................
BUT, I also think it's our nature to.................NEVER be satisfied!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
