The car is sold, I watched it drive away tonight
I never have liked the feeling I get every time I sell my pride and joy and watch it drive away.
Now I just have to wait, for what is going to feel like forever, for my new car to get here

A new 05' Crossfire SRT-6
it will look exactly like this one, but probably not for long






Even though these 3 cars below are regular Crossfires,
I might have to get some new wheels like one of these....I love the stagered offset look!

Isn't the Crossfire essentially a Mercedes based car?

Yep, its about 80% Mercedes, its even built in Germany and shipped by boat to the USA.
The Crossfire is basicly a SLK 320 and the SRT6 is a SLK 32AMG.
The supercharger on the SRT even has AMG stamped on it when you take the Chrysler plastic cover off the engine

Those are pretty slick cars...the only thing I ever felt was out of place, was the linkages that lift up that wing-let. It looks half-baked from an engineering excellence company... they need to work on that detail. Or just switch to a fixed wing...somthing like a CRT truggy droop wing on a Mugen MBX stay

The crossfires aren't that expensive! They are Mercedes cars but being that they have Chrysler badging it brings the price down!

And Imo I don't think eraser76 really cares to much about price! lol

And eraser, I just remembered that the Dyno record at U.T.I. for a street legal car was held by a 95-99 Plymouth neon expresso. 900+whp! Useless knowledge.


Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Even at $45,000 - $50,000 brand new, they still gotta be high $30k-$40k cars used...if that's the route he's going. The Neon went $20k, so that's a big step up. For me. But I'm an old fart who drives a four door family car. So what do I know. Nothing, that's right. And I admit it. I'm done.
