#25 of 1520 re: 23. Brilliant idea! by logic1 Feb 08, 2003 (12:00 pm)
Now you have me hoping there will be an AMG version.   And why not? The Crossfire is a Benz with Chrysler styling. What better Chrysler to be the first to get the AMG treatment?
#26 of 1520 Try this one on for size by moparfever Feb 08, 2003 (2:31 pm)
How about a RenneTech version. I do believe Chrysler even though it's German has taken a step in the right direction and before you know it you will be going to a Chrysler Jeep Dodge Benz all in on the same lot.
#27 of 1520 German looks by carduke Feb 08, 2003 (2:40 pm)
hi, not only is it built in Germany, but it's got the looks of those baby Benzes, in particular from the front. I prefer the '01 Detroit Auto Show concept car's frontend VERY much to the production version. The stacked headlights would have been a bold step out of the general bunch (see Cadillac), the split front window was just ultra cool, and the bigger (more Chrysler-like) grille exuded much more power than these standard air intakes, which you will ruin at the next steep parking garage exit. Concept v. production = dream v. reality. Welcome back to earth!
#28 of 1520 Supercharged Crossfire by xa4 Feb 10, 2003 (1:39 pm)
It's more than expected that Chrysler will launch the Crossfire with the base 215 hp engine and then bump it up in the following years. Practically every car from a Neon to a 911 has gone through this power improvement process.   Here's something that may make you want to wait another year for your Crossfire:   http://www.evo.co.uk/news/evo_news_story.php?id=31338
#29 of 1520 Why wait by moparfever Feb 10, 2003 (6:20 pm)
I don't understand the reason for waiting. It sounds like procrastination and just when you think they can't take it any further they will then when will you buy. I am all for purchase now and buy again later. If you think about it if you bought the 01 PT then you would be in line for the 04 convert. Funny how brand loyalty has gone down the tubes. It also is what drives trade in values down.
#30 of 1520 It's still a Chrysler.... by jwilson1 Feb 11, 2003 (2:20 pm)
another good reason to wait a year! Actually, this is a good, practical thing to do with most any car, even the Japanese.   Brand loyalty? Hmmmm. Are you a dealer? You sound like a dealer? Dealers say things like that, along with "How do you expect me to feed my kids with this deal?" and "No, the warranty doesn't cover the engine if it falls out."   JW

Question to you all? If Chrysler is such a bad product it certainly creates alot of discussion. Why the heebie jeebies of a good product?
#32 of 1520 Huh? by xa4 Feb 12, 2003 (9:46 am)

#33 of 1520 Did you mean... by jwilson1 Feb 12, 2003 (11:27 am)
"why the heebie jeebies of a NEW product?"   If so: because it is a new product.   And Chryslers always have a high level of interest. Among the Big 3 they are the only auto company that is willing to take risks. (some would say they have to, but that's a different story) The fact is that Chrysler's styling, as you should know, has always been advanced ... at least since 1936. They've just never been able to engineer the parts and assemble them with reliability and still make a profit.   Second year products tend to have some of the glitches ironed out.   JW
#34 of 1520 Maybe by logic1 Feb 12, 2003 (1:25 pm)
What is different here is that the Crossfire is built off an existing Mercedes platform by Karman in Germany. It is kind of hard to judge the Crossfire with Chrysler perceptions when in reality it will be more Mercedes than Chrysler.
