They are 2 different cars, the SRT6 has the Mercedes Benz AMG 330hp supercharged engine the Limited and Base models have the Mercedes Benz R170 215hp N/A engine. The bodies are basically the same, except the SRT6 has a fixed rear spoiler and a beefed up suspension and brakes. There are not a lot of the SRT6's on the road due to production, 2005 was the last model year for the car. If you are in the market for a Crossfire then the SRT6 is the best bang for the $$$$, there are a lot of good deals out there on new and used ones. Either way whichever model you chose you cannot go wrong (except on the Base model...less creature comforts than the SRT6 or the Limited), you will not be sorry.

My opinion is that all Crossfire sales were slow simply because enought peopole did not know that the Crossfire was really a Mercedes. They were concerned by the cost of a car that they weree afraid would have Chrysler's poor record of dependability.
     I've owned a Crossfire Roadster and an SRT-6 coupe. The SRT-6 is definitely high performance, but unless you really have to have all that "extra" powere consider a standard Crossfire. They perform extremely well.

OK well I like my performance regardless of what car. Have there been any type of substantial mechanical problems associated with the srt-6, or for that matter the limited/base? A supercharged engine will most likely need more attention, but have there been reports of things at certain mileage that I should look for when buying used?

Can someone post the 07 and 06 (probably the same) crossfire roadster exterior colors?
Thanks,

You can get a tremendous deal on a "new" SRT-6 now. Dealers could not sell these so Chrysler rounded them all up and auctioned them off. Check cars.com or autotrader and you can get a SRT-6 with less than 100 miles for around $25000. When are you ever going to be able to own a $50k
car for half price ever again? And some dealers are also certifying them which provides an 8 yr/80000 warranty.

Some owners have replaced the crankshaft pulley and
upgraded the ECU with RENNtech - a respected Mercedes performance company that is pricey. Their website is
www.renntechmercedes.com then check out the SLK R170
engine modifications. I do not know anyone that has installed a turbo, but await the aftermarket supercharger.
Some owners have made their own custom air intakes, but do not know of any made specifically for the Crossfire. Many replace the air filters with the K&N drop-ins, but you use the same air box.

There are NO superchargers or REAL Cold Air Intakes available for our cars unless you have them custom fabricated. Performance upgrades are very, very expensive for our cars. The only "Dyno Proven" ECU available is from Speed Innovations.
