Default What a strange little beast!

Hello all;
I just purchased one of these about a week ago. Interesting car, it's like the illegitimate son of Mercedes and Chrysler. A dealer in our area purchased all the 2007's he could get his hands on and was closing them out way below the original price, I was foolish (lucky?) enough to test drive one.. so here I am!

Thus far every Jetta and Passat (and there are a ton of them) seems to think I bought it to race them ... and I swear that is not why I bought it!

Welcome aboard, thenderaaa! You found a great site on the Net for getting answers to XFire questions.

I've only owned my XFire for about three weeks and I sincerely look forward to driving it whenever I get the chance. It is definitely a fun automobile. These cars are unique and definitely an eye-catcher.

Enjoy your Crossfire and visit us often. The people here are not only friendly but also very helpful.

Welcome and congrats on the ride !

Just a friendly little word of advise, if you have a question regarding your ride, you may wanna do a search on the subject before posting. Some folks on this site get a little crotchety when commonly asked questions appear over and over !

Just my Dos Centavos !
