Went and test drove a car today
Was driving around and saw a Chrysler Crossfire sitting at a dealership and it is a car I have been looking at a bit recently so decided to go and give it a go. I gotta say, it was a blast to go on the test drive. The dealership let me and my wife just go off and drive it to see how we felt since with the two of us in it, the salesman couldn't fit as well. Has been a while since I drove a manual, still had a blast, but did stall it once. The two biggest complaints I had were the fact that the controls for the cruise control were right above the turn signal selector and had a similar shape, so I would keep hitting the controls instead of the turn signal. The other thing is the huge blind spot but that can be compensated for by adjusting the side mirrors a bit more. Overall was very happy with the car and it may have just become my backup plan in case the Camaro plans fall through.

I do agree, the Camaro is still my first choice. In the event something doesn't work out though, I do have a backup plan now.

My mother-in-law used to own a Crossfire Roadster, it was a fun car, but not very practicle. The car was basically a Mercedes and had a good feel when driving. I also always used to hit the cruise control when trying to hit the turnsignals.

This is why you asked about the warranty. The pieces are coming together...

No, the warranty question was pure coincidence. When I asked that question it was meant to be a general question about any car manufacturer.
