I saw the Crossfire in person too, at the NY State Fair. I thought it was pretty nice looking (the back of it wasn't that great though). The interior looked good. But I'd at least want more power for the price of it.

The Crossfire looked like they got to the rear window, ran out of money, and said "Screw it, produce 'em". I coulldn't bring myself to look inside or at the sticker, not with the new Thunderbird next to it. I like the looks of that car. It looks like a classic Thunderbird.

physicists were badmouthing it, cuz when you get to around 300mph your body shape on the bike makes it like a wing, and the sucker comes right off the ground. They need a wing or something on the back. Still, if I had the $$$, I would get it

I think going that speed not being enclosed in anything you wouldnt think..period.. it would be all instinct and you better hope that your instinct is right.. (and eventually gets on the breaks if theres any left by the time you come to a stop)
