Lightbulb 2006 crossfire vs. 2006 rx8

I might trade for a crossfire. They're very fast and are made by mercedes. Anyone else thinking of trading for one???

Faster?

Only faster if you opt for the automatic with the supercharger.

Sad.

It's built on the old SLK that they quit selling because no one bought them. Yes, that's right, the SLK platform that's 10 years old.

The Crossfire has been selling so poorly that they're cutting production by 2/3rds:

AND they completely skipped the 2006 model year.

well, they've had an entire year to sell the 2005's and they have so many left on the dealer's lot that they didn't bother making any for 2006.

I'd say you might be able to get a dealer to pay you to take it off the lot.

Chrysler was so desperate to move Crossfires in late 2005 that it even engaged in a marketing stunt when it attempted to sell units on Overstock.com.

I always remember what jermey Jeremy Clarkson said about the it when I see them.

"Looks like a dog squating to take chit"

next time you see one look at the rear, picture a dog crapping.

LOL.

From what they are saying you might have a collectors car.
Or a car that no one wants to collect.
Is this kinda like an Edsel ?
HMMMMMM
