Default Gaudy and poorly styled, it's the smartest way to get a M-B SLK32 Kompressor with...

...<font color="003366"> a fixed roof and monumental depreciation.</font>

Default basically......

an MBZ C32 AMG engine wrapped in chrysler's badges....i test drove the regular crossfire and i loved the exhaust tone.....

the interior, engine bay etc. look soooo much like the MBZ....the down is the el cheapo green color look of the instrument cluster (when lite)

the engine and tranny is straight pulled from the MBZ 3.2L 215hp v6 18valves which are on all the 3.2L model MBZ

it's 'OK' a bit overprice for a chrysler IMO if it was priced under $30k MSRP i would think about it

Default Personally for the money - the 2005 Corvette could be had

The '05 Corvette is also 2 seater, and more luxury items like navi, heads up display, digital climate control, seat warmers, etc etc....

The 2005 is also more car than the Crossfire because it's faster, has more cargo space, got a better looking 200 mph speedo, better sound system, unlatchable roof, etc etc

If it was my money - it'd be a heavily optioned 05 corvette over the srt-6 Crossfire.

Default I think the '05 Corvette's interior is nicer - looky looky - more pics :)

Interior:

Notice Navi and Digital Climate Control:

I think it's a better package - also 400 hp don't hurt either (grin)

Thank you. Although I must say, your comment sounds mysterously familiar.
