Review: I just purchased a 2007 Chrysler Crossfire Limited Roadster. I was initially going to get a BMW Z3 or Z4 but after test driving the Crossfire, I immediately fell in love. It has all the "bells and whistles" that the BMW has and I think the style is really sharper.If you don't want to draw any attention then don't buy this car. Everywhere I go I have at least 3 people stop me and want to look at this stylish car. My only complaint is the cup holder. What in the **** were they thinking?? I think for the price you have to pay for this car they could devise a better option. Don't even think about putting any kind of cup that will tear in it. In my opinion the cup holder is useless. But if I had to do it over again I would definitely purchase the Crossfire. If you want a "headturner" and really have fun with a car ...then this is the one for you.

Review: Good review, with a positive tone, which pleases this X-fire SRT coupe owner. However, like many BW car reviews, the article is riddled with inaccuracies. Two stand out. First, there is no 2006 model. Chrysler continued with an '06 in other countries, but with an oversupply of 2005 models in the US, Chrysler decided not to continue with an '06. This possible end of the model (despite no official word from Chrysler on an '07) means the car could become an early collectible. Second are the inaccuracies about the SRT model. Only the convertible fetches over $50k, the coupe starts in the mid-40's. So far as the upgraded engine for that car is concerned, it is not larger than the base. The same engine is tuned by Mercedes'AMG performance arm with the addition of a supercharger. True, the car is still worth a look from buyers interested in a unique sports car who eschew the mundane Z4, 350Z or S2000. Nonetheless, thanks for the kind words about this great car.

Review: I've had my "limited" for just over a year, being the first buyer in Tucson. This car is hot..hot..hot and has more head turning quotient than any other on the road. It's one of the few that looks great with the top up or down and has more speed than you can find road to drive on. There are only two things they missed on: the cup holder seems like an after thought and totally unusable, and there's not enough room for my golf clubs. But hey, for the enjoyment of this car everyday, I'll gladly hold my own cup and put the clubs in the front seat! I hope Chrysler limits its sales on this car so it keeps its value and stays the unique and fantastic ride it is!

Review: I just got my 2005 Crossfire Limited and can only say this is the best car I've ever owned or driven. The body style is sleek, the two-tone interior is top-notch and extra features like the heated seats call for driving with the top down more often then not. Too much money? Not for this gal - five stars from me all the way!

Review: Liked the review. Disagree with the comments about the ragtop function. I think it's an engineering marvel and fun to watch functionally. I find the trunk adequate for the size of the car (yes, i bought a 2005 Roadster Limited) and I love the styling, performance, and functionality of the whole car. If I have a bad thing to say it is that the seat belts are hard to buckle and the Infinity upgrade cd/radio with Navigation system is way over the top difficult to use! Love driving this car and love being seen in it!

Review: Why must all auto reviewer's bore us with their opinion of a car's styling, as if we cannot form our own by simply opening our eyes? I don't know if that "German Engineering" is really worth bragging about either, considering that MB typically scores lower than Chrysler in JD Power's quality surveys. Heck, the orignal Chrysler-only design was all-aluminum with more horsepower (ala Plymouth Prowler). Buy a two-year-old Corvette, and nobody will mistake you for a for the teenage daughter of a CEO.

Review: OK review, but you failed to mention that the "German engineering" is from the previous generation Mercedes SLK. This old technology exacerbates the poor value equation.
