I've always liked Crossfire's, however they come across as an 'older person's'-type car. I have never driven one but I'm looking for some objective comparisons from those in the know.

Have not driven one, but have sat in a few. Notice that the console was metal and not padded. Didn't like that.Consumer Reports actually rates the reliability much better than average, which surprised me.Says it's a german built car based on the SLK. Engine is 'punchy', but the steering system is outdated and the feel is not as sporty as you would think a 2 seater would be. There was a sc version in 2005 with 330 HP. Now, that sounds like fun!That's 115 more HP that the non-sc

Yeah, the SRT's seem pretty dang quick. These cars just look so small though.

I recall Leno sittting in one when they were in shows and he said they were too sexy for him, I kinda doubt that, and wonder how much they paid him to say it,

I don't like them, no, not at all, I like the sound of 330hp SC, but not with a chrysler logo on the grill.
