I know I know, FreakX is the entry level Freak and people would say its not really a Freak because of the crown... But the deal I got at the dealer was too good to pass up (30% off list price + ~1.5k cash coupons). ...
The combination of practicality (I like crowns, call me old-fashioned), more wearable size and price point. And I would not be bothered by "not really a purist Freak" - the family resemblance is uncanny in my eyes.
