They are like Corvettes - big threshold to climb over. "Not a Mopar in any shape or form"? Chrysler has been a [Edited by Moparts - Family Friendly Site - Keep it clean] to so many other car company's over the years you need a score card to keep track. The X-fire, as under powered as it is in it's non SRT state, is still a pretty cool driver. On a closed coarse it will blow the doors off of any old Mopar, and at speed ( 130+ ) it is rock solid - as compared to my Cordoba, which is just plane scary!

I thought they only sold about 100 of them altogether? I know the dealers here could not hardly give them away. "Everybody funny, now you funny too."

I have one woman that has 110.000 miles on hers . Parts are not cheap. heck a tune up cost 500.00. 12 plugs at 22 each.plus wires and air filters. NAG trans.. leaking connectors. blower motor resisters are bad in them. if I was a woman would be a cool car. Just not me..sorry. Heated seats in them are other nightmare. I should of said I worked on them 100s of times. not sure many of them are running around or how many I have work on more than once.
