I've always thought those things were way cool. Awesome.

Thanks! It's based on the MB SLK chassis so it's RWD with a 215 bhp 3.2L V6 sourced from Mercedes as well. With the coupe architecture, this chassis is actually quite a bit stiffer than a 911 coupe of similar vintage.

It handles really well in dry conditions but I've easily driven it through one of the worst MN winters I've seen in a long time and it held up just fine.

On my friend's white X-fire, we just found the closest white we could.

Another buddy from school has one your color, and he has the clear sides. They don't look that good, but that's just my opinion!
