Honestly how much do you enjoy driving it? It seems like a really beautiful design and cool car.

Well the SRT(amg) motor is cracking. The base motor is adequately (read: miata/brz) fast.

I feel good driving it and I go seek out twisties or tunnels at least once a week, if thats any indication of how much I enjoy it.

Though I do wish mine didn’t have a 140k miles on it and that I budgeted enough for the SRT.

From reviews it doesn't seem the fastest. But them seemed to like the handling.

Wide/low profile tires, stiff suspension and a body that was “stiffer than a 911” …. I’d say its certainly not terrible.

I saw one recently with the “supercharged” badge off a new Audi..and it wasn’t even the SRT-6.

Anything I have left for a post like this would be repeating myself as a known hater of the misfire......Oh, sorry, meant “Cross”fire. No clue how i got messed up there. Oh wait, yes I do, it reminds me of:

Kinja'd!!!

So rather than type out a paragraph about your busted-ass SLK, I’ll just sit here for a minute and make the following noise out loud with my mouth: PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFTFTTFTTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFTFTTFTTFFTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFTFTTFTTFTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTbbbbbt.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to rotate my tires yet again because the ST is so damn awesome that you need to do it every 3,000 miles or you risk burning through a set of tires in like 10k miles because it’s just so fucking awesome........HAVE I TOLD YOU ABOUT MY ECOBOOST?!?!?!?!?!?!

(note to newbs - milky and I go back. This comment is sarcastic/taking some wind out of his sails. He’ll take his counter shot at me in response. We both grew up in detroit, drifting cars into curbs.........difference is my old monte carlo was a GM product and actually survived while his toyota didn’t! OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Yeah a neighbor used to have one in yellow and was a convertible. When the spoiler came out of the rear I thought it was magic

Yea Im not sure about the demographic of Crossfire drivers. Seems very varied on the forum. Old guys, bros, people that put MB logos everywhere, drag racers, its all there.

I still feel cool seeing it go up in the rear view mirror everyday if I’m honest. Its a little thing, but I like it.

I think I already told you this, but if not, there’s one I see around town with “US BENZ” as the plate, and “powered by AMG” stickers in the windows.

The SC side jab had me lol-ing. But rotating tires is for plebs that don’t have staggered/directional wheels.

Also I should clarify I grew up in west Michigan and moved to Detroit for college. I am moving back to the D in a month though, so I’ll be gangster again soon.

Kinja'd!!!

But at least thats under the hood, what happened to subtlety in this world?
