Awesome Convertible

I previously owned 2 other convertibles but have never had as much fun driving one as the Crossfire. Great road handling and smooth ride. If there is any complaint it is that the seats are not as comfortable as I believe they could be. I love driving this car.

My dream car

I love this baby! I even had a policeman stop me and tell me what a great looking hot car this was! This car rides like a dream. Very comfortable seats and lots of bells and whistles to play with. Only drawback is no trunk space....maybe just enough to put in a small overnight duffle bag. This is one great hot car!!!!

A Bit Outdated

All Crossfires are a bit outdated in terms of technology unless you upgrade the infotainment system.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!!!

Fun little ride

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.

Great Car Unit I get my Porsch 911

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.

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.

Was Good While It Lasted

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!

This is basically a stripped down Mercedes SLK 320. Not all dealers service this car, so check with Chrysler dealerships first. A Great car that does 1g. on the skidpad!

Lots of Looks

My Crossifre Roadster is an amazing car. It is my "mid life ENTITLEMENT" car! People actually go out of their way to tell me how beautiful the car is. I is fun to drive, and very comfortable. The seats are great for my back. I just wish the cup holder was larger and the navigation system was a little easier to use. My wife thinks the luggage is an amazing feature.
