I traded in my new 2005 Crossfire convertible limited for the used 2005 SRT-6 with low mileage of 6500 miles. It is well worth it. So much more horse power under the hood, from 215 to 330 hp, bigger brakes that allow me to stop on a dame. Wow, I just can not get enough of it, foot to the floor for 3 seconds and I disappear from the crow. Love to drive it on the freeway every day if possible. However, I choose not to use this wonderful sport car as my daily commute vehicle. I would like to keep my mileage low as if it will be a collectible in the near future. As for my driving habit, I enjoy having the 330 HP when I needed.

A dream comes true. Does the slalom better that all the $100,000 supercars, even with a small 6. Great grip: 19 inch on back, 18 on front. It DOES 155 mph! So its 0 to 60 is only good: do I really want to suck gas and screech away at night? Seats are well bolstered and great lateral support.The auto shift works with a single movement, rather than the two required by others. No rattles, and the HANDLING!!!!! This is why I love my crossfire

This is a 2 seater that can really turn heads. The lines are clean and the style is fresh. The car is quick off the line and can reach its electronically limited speed quickly. The brakes are exceptional and transmission flawless. If you are taller then 5'8" and portly look out, the cabin is tight and leg room limited. But when you want some fun, disengage the traction control and grab some throttle.
Outstanding Car....

This is an outstanding, but underrated car. Of course the positive side to this is the fact there are not many on the road, so you don't see yourself coming and going. 5800 miles, no squeaks, rattles or other problems. One trip to the dealer for an early oil change ($24.00 with my oil). Just bought the extended bumper to bumper warranty from Chrysler for 7/100,000 miles. This is a keeper!!

The Crossfire is a wonderful blend of sports car and sports coupe. The performance is very good with ride and handling being in the firm and controlable area. The styling is well... you either like it or you do not. I am constantly getting inquiries and thumbs up from folks on the road and in parking situations. The 6 speed manual is fun to drive and the gearbox is very nice. I have about 11000 mile on the car now and have not had a single issue or problem. So I would rate the build quality as excellent. I have added a clear shield aftermarket bra to the front of the car to stop rock dings. Downside of the car is when you are backing out of a parking place. Vision is limited.

I've owned a black SRT6 for about 2.5 months now. I bought it as a weekend/fun car. Despite only coming in an auto tranny, this car will satisfy the power hungry... believe me. Friends that have ridden with me (and the few close friends who I trusted to give it a test drive) commented on the rapid acceleration, smooth shifting auto tranny & great handling/traction. It pulls hard & upshifts from 3rd to 4th around 105 or so at full throttle. Trust what the reviews say about it & ignore the very few negative reviews because it's a superb performer. Also, consumers held off on buying these at an unfair 45K so they can be had for a reasonable 30-35K w/low milage!! I paid $30,600 w/3400 miles!!!

Great car to drive, but expensive to own. Tires don't last long and are very expensive as are the oil changes. My daily commute is 120 miles round trip. Have owned for less than a year and now need lifters and rockers replaced at only 53,000. Hoping that the dealership has a qualified and experienced tech to do the job. Still under warranty -- thank goodness!

One of the biggest complaints about this car has been a result of the competition which surrounds it in that mid $30,000 price bracket. You have BMW coupes, the 350Z, the G35 coupe, the S2000, to name a few. And those cars are phenomenal in their own rights. But I got my Crossfire for about $20,000, and it wasn't even a year old. And be fair, which of these cars looks the most exotic? I think that as good as the other cars look, the Crossfire is in a different class. And it is fast enough. The Mercedes 3.2L motor that's under the hood is low on BHP, but it has a fat torque curve that really starts stomping at 3000 rpms. 6.1 0-60 seems good. And the exhaust note!

I am fortunate to have two crossfires, a 2004 coupe and a 2005 roadster, SRT6. I am able to compare them side by side and I find them both extremely well built, tight and very fast. The SRT6 is a machine that is for the purist, well built, in quality, fit and finish,control layouts are easy to reach an use, the motor pulls like there is no end, very smooth and no objectionable noises, just raw power.I love the way it turns, it has to be the tightest turning radius of any car out there, the top operates very smoothly and gets stowed under a beautiful tonneau cover, with the top down and the optional wind screen in place there is no wind buffeting at all,for the money, a great sport roadster,world class

I must say, Chrysler has outdone themselves. I have owned 2 different Chryslers before and had so many of the lot problems before, so I took a chance this time around. And I am still grining from ear to ear about it. This baby is fast, smooth, roomy, and even gets decent MPG. So far I have averaged around 17-18 city, and a solid 28 on the highway. Man, this is one car I pray Chrysler does not drop. They're sitting on vehicle gold here. Look out Z owners, Civic SI, s2ooo's, and mustangs. I am comming up fast with this baby!!!

I love my Crossfire. It is one awesome car. I am so happy with it. I had a BMW Z3 while I bought the Crossfire. I have had three back surgeries. I think it is very comfortable. I am actually glad I bought it. I like the attention too. It is good to be different. I think it looks better than the SLK. Everyone has the SLK. Not a lot of people have the Crossfire.

I bought this car with 649 miles on it. The Crossfire was built by Daimler Benz. Averaged less than 10,000 miles/year. Now has 75,500 miles. Runs great. Love cruising with the top down. This car is in great shape. No accidents, no damage. The only reason I might sell it is to get a slightly larger Mercedes Convertible.

I wanted to own a Crossfire form the first time I saw one. Detroit, this is what Americans want! Event hough the car is on a Benz chassis, one look screams american. The sloped boat tail with the huge rear fenders look like a body builders sholders. The long nose and grooved hood is the cooless! The spine that follows the entire length fo the car (inside & out) is just like the early Stingray, minus the split window. I am a young hard working man, and when I am behind the wheel and middle aged men in Porsches & Benz's give me the thumbs up, I feel like a menber of the "club". Thank you, Chrysler, for this wondeful car.

I bought this car a couple of years back because I remember them when they were brand new, DaimlerChrysler first car based off the older R170 platform better known as the SLK320. One of the best V-6 that Mercedes built along with the drivetrain front to back, most of these cars can be had for around $6000 or more for a good solid car- just make sure the former owner did the maintenance as scheduled by Benz or you can expect to spend some money getting caught up doing so. Steering is crisp and précised and with the light weight around 3100 pounds it makes enough power to make you smile. This car is a Sports car that is a touring car if it's the roadster, the coupe is more of Drive it like you stolen it and both will curve up curves like no tomorrow! are they easy to keep running the answer is YES it's a Mercedes- do the maintenance and reaching 300k and beyond is not out of question. is there an plastic rattle- NO I think I have hear once in the dead of winter behind the seat, outside of that these care are head turners and surprising to drive, my only dislike is Premium gas it needs but you can run lower on a pinch, 90 or higher and a easy foot you should see about 30+MPG on the highway if I ever stay on the highway and not the curvy roads in Northern kentucky and SW Ohio :-) ride is good after shocks were replaced and handling is good.

My crossfire SRT is a wonderful vehicle, vastly underrated and seemingly unknown. The performance is awesome. The motor is immediately responsive and a thrill to feel the acceleration. The build quality is superb and not at all like an American car. I have compared against the Mercedes SLK and this is a far superior vehicle even though built on the same platform.

Purchased car in Aug 2008 in new condition. Had 16000 on it. It is graphite gray metallic outside, interior is salmon and gray leather two tone, has designer signed sunvisor from germany, with certification. Just installed two air intake pipes in lieu of regular air filters. Talk about tone and speed it made a tremendous difference. It's awesome, love it. Should have bought something like this years ago but have it now.

All Crossfires are a bit outdated in terms of technology unless you upgrade the infotainment system. The SR-6 is wicked fast.. Loved the whine of the supercharged engine!!!

This vehicle is a replacement for my 2004 Crossfire Coupe, which was a fine car but underpowered. That is not a problem with the SRT-6 with silky- smooth 330 BHP supercharged V6 - Daimler/Chrysler should have kept the AMG nameplate on the engine. The car is really quick and, because of the suspension and braking upgrades, handles much better than the conventional Crossfire. I was worried about the "rough ride" described by numerous reviewers, but have not found that to be the case. Overall, a great car for the price ($29k - brand new).

I've owned my Crossfire SRT-6 coupe for a little over a year and this is a great car. It's fast, it's elegant, and it's a head turner almost everywhere I go with it. My only gripe with the car is that it was only available as a 5-speed automatic with AutoStick. I feel that a manufacturer of a true sports car would give buyers the option of purchasing such a car with a manual transmission primarily, and possibly offering an automatic transmission. Unfortunately because this is an Mercedes-Benz AMG at heart, it is only offered as an automatic. Otherwise, the car is a blast to drive and definitely a conversion starter. I would recommend getting one!

Love the looks, love the attention, love the american tags, love the great sounding stereo. Like the seats, like the driving posture, like the trunk space. Disappointed with visibility, throttle response time, heavy feeling to steering, Hate the wet and snowy weather handling (better to leave it in the garage then any way). Good that wife can drive it. My kids think it is too flashy and would have rather me have the SLK.

This car is very rare and exclusive. You will see lots more Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Bentleys, Porsches, and Aston Martins on the roads before you see an SRT6. I enjoy this exclusivity and have zero issues pulling up next to any exotic or parking next to any super expensive muscle car. My 2005 SRT6 turns heads as much as any vehicle out there and even the dudes driving the exotics look over and nod their approvals. Car handles great, has enough power to always keep a smile on my face, drives amazing and is dependable. I love this car, and at today’s prices I don’t think there is much to think about. Definitely a future collectable and prices eventually should creep up on these rare gems.

For the price and what you get, this is hands down the best-bargain 2 seater luxury coupe on the market. For $26,000 or less you get a mercedes in mercedes clothing. You will either love or hate this car. I love it. You might too. Definitely take it for a test drive. Warning: More likely than not, you'll end up buying the car after the test- drive.

I had the 2005 Limited convertible roadster in Blaze red with the white interior. I loved it at first sight and even more after driving it. But, it does have it's little issues. Getting stuck in a drive through line because it decides to stall and not start again was one of them. I had to push that thing out twice. Then buzzing along at 70MPH on the freeway and it just dies. After joining a Crossfire forum, I learned it was very typical of these cars to have 2 items that needed attention. I did both and it seemed to have solved the problem but I decided to go ahead and sell it while it was still worth the money. Now 6 years later, I wish I had that car back. Great little 'Second' car. Not a daily driver. You do get the stares. I was a stop light with my girl friend with the top down when someone pulled up next to me and asked..."Is that a Ferrari?" Then while at a restaurant eating on the patio, I saw 3 ladies at my car taking pictures of it and then laying on the hood taking selfies. If they had known it was a Chrysler, they would have kept on walking. But, I liked the car even with the quirks.

My husband and I just bought this, our first 'shared' car, on Saturday morning, 9/18/10. He wanted a Crossfire since he moved in with me in - 2005 - the same year as the car. We absolutely LOVE it! We got black with a black roof with the two tone gray leather interior and it is so slick looking. Kids on bikes yell, "NICE CAR!" when we drive by. Old men stare at it when we are at a stop sign. The first thing I noticed when I drove it was how tight the steering was. Then I noticed how the car really clings to the road - it is amazing. I have no complaints although we've only owned it for 3 whole days :-) I feel like a superstar when I'm driving it!
1 year and still loving it!

The styling of these cars is what drew me to them. I always get compliments everywhere I go and you don't see too many of them around so they stand out. The engine is smooth with a nice broad torque band and decent power. The car begs to be driven fast so I do wish there was more on tap but still not bad. The interior is not for everyone. I find it cozy but some may find it cramped. The car sits low so plan on a bit of climbing to get in the door. The fit and finish is great and the materials look good. The convertible top is high quality and surprisingly quiet. My first year has been a joy. This car exudes fun with a nearly perfect balance of performance, comfort, and economy.

Very nice car for the money. Ok, the negatives.. the top did not disengage easily. Once I found just the right way to turn the handle, it worked like a charm. Cruise control lever gets in the way of turn signals. Also when using cruise control it does not keep the same speed when going up hills. Needs premium fuel so make sure you have plenty of cash. Although a summer car, it was not bad in snow with the traction control and antilock breaks especially in the mountains of VA. Very nice pick up for the base V6. I am sure the SRT-6 would be radically faster. I also like the speed shift automatic. It gives more pickup faster when engaged... just make sure you remember to change gears!

Stevie Ray Vaughan would love this car

Caught in the Crossfire... those words have been playing repeatedly along with the heavily blues laden guitar riffs of the great Stevie Ray Vaughan. I bought this car to replace a well worn Toyota Highlander. I wanted something fun to drive and a C5 or C6 Corvette was just out of range for my cash on hand. I happily stumbled across a 2004 Crossfire in Amethyst Silver metallic and fell in love immediately. She used to be somebody's baby, and was turned out of her warm garage into the harsh desert sun for unknown shortcomings. They must have just fallen out of love, hey, it happens. She was dirty, her boot filled with the random flotsam and jetsam of life including uncashed checks and dirty socks. A few hours of derailed cleaning, a good scrubbing, and she was shining like a diamond in a goats ass. She just needed someone to love her again and she has responded accordingly. This car is truly a blast to drive. The 6 speed transmission is easy to work, clutch throw and pressure are exactly right on and the cockpit is laid out finer than your church clothes on a Saturday night. It is my first German car I have ever owned and it just makes sense, frightening really how much it makes sense. The only drawback I have discovered this far is my golf clubs do not fit in the boot. I have not come up with a solution, I'm considering building a small trailer that looks like mini Crossfire that would hold my clubs, cool and functional. I am averaging 25.8 mpg with the a/c on full blast, and a couple of quick jaunts at just over the speed limit. I do recommend using the cruise control on the highway, it is way too easy to lose yourself in the guitar riffs coming out of the speakers and allow your right foot to rest heavily on the responsive accelerator. Day by day,night after night, Blinded by the neon lights. Hurry here, hustlin' there, No one's got the time to spare. Money's tight, nothin' free, Won't somebody come and rescue me? I am stranded, caught in the crossfire Stranded, caught in the crossfire. Tooth for tooth, eye for an eye. Sell your soul just to buy, buy, buy. Beggin' a dollar, stealin' a dime, Come on can't you see that I I am stranded ,caught in the crossfire I am stranded, caught in the crossfire. I need some kind of kindness, some kind of sympathy oh, no We're stranded, caught in the crossfire Save the strong lose the weak, Never turning the other cheek. Trust nobody don't be no fool, Whatever happened to the golden rule? We got stranded, caught in the crossfire We got stranded, caught in the crossfire We got stranded, caught in the crossfire

I am constantly being stopped in parking lots and people are commenting on my car..of course the muscle head mustangers all wanna race, the ride is fabulous...smooth, corners well quick off the line and terrific acceleration. Nav system has come in handy several times, some problems with the contrast on the radio, but that's not Chryslers problem...Have done full family grocery shopping (top up of course) and weekends away top down, once you learn to pack the car you do fine...if you can manage with a two seater and are looking for a fun car that looks great and doesn't feel like metal rollerskates....it's a great value!!!! I love it!

I can recall reading Road & Track as a teenager when I was supposed to be doing homework; all I wanted in life was one of those beautiful touring cars. I have gone through my share of economy, functional, mini-van types and finally I have my car of my 14 year old dreams. Chiropracters should thank all of us for the way for the way it twists necks. I had a Porsche driver pull next to me on the highway and give me/it a thumbs up! I love everything about it, acceleration, comfort, handling and particularly styling. I had to wait until I was 65, but it was worth the wait!

But it turned heads, even when my car was dirty with all the brake dust. Thought about getting the 6spd, but didn't think that was too practical-got the autostick, gives u control when u want it. The auto drop- top is awesome.Interior is super sharp (vanilla & black leather)& the free luggage was a great bonus! Don't miss the lack of trunk space, (that's why I have a dodge dakota too)the sound system is great w/subwoofers.My only complaint is that darn cupholder.You need a spill proof mug if u are drinking coffee.I love it!Funnest car ever
Expensive fun

Gets lots of attention on the road but for a price! Fuel/oil costs are significant for such a small car. Warranty work is a bit of a hassle since most small-town dealerships don't see enough of them to be able to easily solve problems. Negotiate tough...this is not a car that everyone wants.

I have the SRT6 version but couldnt find another way to post. Due to the power to weigh ratio, this is one of the fastest cars on the road without paying 85k. Supercharger awakenings the 3.2 from Mercedes. Destroys anything under 85k and some over that price. Interior a little cramped and gas mileage is not great but who cares, this car is an animal. Great second car. A cruising speeds very docile but with just a hint of gas and your going over 100mph. Great car
I love this car!

I have had this car nearly 6 months and have never had a more pleasurable driving experience. I live in Atlanta, GA where the weather is perfect for convertible driving. I have the top down going to and coming from work, no matter what the temperature. If it's cold... oh those heated seats! If it's hot, and it has been this summer, who cares, I haven't. The styling, the handling, the looks from other drivers... this car turns heads. The comments and compliments have never stopped. Driving it has been beyond fun, it's been life-enhancing. Why don't more people drive convertibles? I'm 65 years old and I've never felt younger. Did I mention the racy growl this car has? It's beautiful.
Low, fast and sharp

I have a srt-6 roadster in graphite and never get tired of the look of this car. The lines are amazing and its fast. The interior is comfortable and user friendly. It never fails to turn heads including mb owners on a regular basis. When the top is down i've had people shout great car and give a thumbs up, people crossing streets have stopped and commented that's a beautiful car. I looked at the mb slk and amg but went for the crossfire, the engine is mb assembled in the same german plant and i preferred the body lines to an emblem.

The crossfire is very enjoyable to drive. yes it could use more low end torque. the seats could be a little more comfortable. The car is very responsive while driving. the problem i have found is that it is so new that even the dealership cannot service it correctly. they have not figured out the computer download to some of the features.
Daily driver's can be fun

I have been driving this car everyday for the last 11 months. It's fun, fast, and reliable. I find it can corner with the best of them, and although it is not a HP giant, it will run the interstates and two lanes with power to spare. I have had it back to the dealer twice, for oil changes. That's it. Not a squeak or rattle.
Fun!

I've been wanting a convertible for a while. I was waiting to buy my Corvette but this car caught my eye. It's sexy, fun and incredible to drive. I love the stares as I'm driving or parked. On warm sunny FL days, going topless (the car, not me) is incredible. Super fun! Hope to keep this car for a long time.
Fun!

I really enjoy the car.It has all the power necessary, makes great noises,and has very comfortable seats. I am amazed by the gas mileage. I get 26mph in a mix of city and highway on 87 octane. I think a little more money spent on shocks would be well spent.They are a little more harsh than they need to be. The steering is also not up to normal German standards but all in all a great car for not a lot of money.
Fast and Fun X Fire

Great car! Fun to drive with top down and enjoy the ride. Car is very fast and has a nice tight feel to the road. I get stopped wherever I go and people ask to take a closer look. Always look forward to by next journey with my Crossfire.
Traded in my Jaguar for Crossfire!

I bought this car and traded in my leased Jaguar 4 months early! I was debating between a BWM z4 or the crossfire. I am sooo happy with my choice. The car is great from looks to driving. I get a lot of comments and looks. The top down makes this car look like a million dollars. In fact, most people who ask what kind of car it is ask "did you pay about $50k?" I plan on keeping this one a long time.
Fantastic Purchase

I was concerned when buying this car about the space issue, being 6'2, but I found that since I drive by myself, it hasn't been a problem. I love the way the car looks and even getting compliments in car crazy LA. The performance is more than adequate for city driving, and the car feels like a tank on the freeways. The seats in the car are superb, and the stereo begs to be turned up even louder. The manual tranny is very slick, despite reading negative reviews from various sources. I haven't put too many miles on the car yet, but with a tick over 4,000, the car feels very solid, no rattles or issues. The air conditioning works extremely well, and the heated seats are a nice touch!
