2004 Limited Coupe 25K , 1 owner, garaged and never run in winter acquired yesterday.
Runs and looks new..........wife likes it also.....life is good. Rear Mich tires yield a lot of road noise....will
pursue something else soon

It seems responsive enough..........very comfortable , decent ride ......but sluggish in comparison to my
Cooper S (daily runner). The Xfire should be a great day tripper.

Go here CLICK and download the 2004 Service Manual by Chrysler, for free.
You'll find many other useful manuals etc there as well.
