The Crossfire is back!
No joke! They must love the crack pipe over at Chrysler.
https://home.autonews.com/clickshare...onews_response http://www.autoblog.com/2007/07/02/s...-another-year/ When the Crossfire was introduced, it was hailed as the consummation of the German-American marriage between Daimler and Chrysler. It's success, or lack thereof, may have foretold the rocky relationship that would ensue over the following years. But even though sales have continued to decline, Automotive News is reporting that the Crossfire will be back in 2008, equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system and a few other minor changes. The last few years have been less-than-stellar for the Mercedes-based coupe. With a glut of unsold '06 and '07 models filling storage facilities in Europe, orders were suspended for a while, but production never ceased. In the meantime, Crossfire sales have declined, from 14,665 in 2005 to 8,216 in 2006, and in an effort to stop the downward spiral, a series of incentives have been thrown on the hood. How long this can continue is an open question -- something that Chrysler's new suitor, Cerberus Capital Management, can't put off for long. [Source: Automotive News – Sub. Req.] |

I rented one last week from Avis. Trust me, it felt like a rental car.

Wow, they're gonna add TPMS to the Crossfire... that totally changes my opinion of it. :rolleyes:
|
Been down the Chrysler road in past . . .
Have come from the dark side into the light, LOL. Great, another Chrysler car to part the buyer to death. Just what the world needs.

Chrysler doesn't seem to realize that luxury is low on the list of qualities people look for in a sports car. Anyone remember the Buick Reatta?

The cross fire rocks:

Chrysler was selling the SRT-6 for $12k [yes, 12k] under sticker last year. Original sticker was 45k.

My [Chrysler] Jeep Liberty is in the shop for a known, but non-warranty covered, cylinder compression problem. Parted to death fer sure!! :-(

The Crossfire it truly a model of mediocrity, but I'm not jumping in the anti-MOPAR bandwagon by any means. I've had great experiences with every MOPAR I've ever owned, from a '66 Barracuda to an '04 SRT-4. It's just selling them that's a nightmare. Nothing depreciates like a MOPAR. :(

I just went to the Chrysler website just to get some info on the car and I am disgusted at what a POS it really is. I thought it Crossfire looked decent when it first came out, but after looking at it's specs just now.......wtf Chrysler?
