How hard is this? It's either a sebring or a crossfire..

Red: goto chryslers website and look at the models.. you should be able to figure out what you saw.

Yea I think it was a Sebring or a Crossfife as well, but he said 3000. Thats whats throwing us off. Definately go to the Chrysler site.

Sounds to me like it may have been a 300gt convertible. They are made by chrysler, and i believe it says it on the motor somewhere. Those are all wheel drive which would help to explain the explosive launch.

what the hell are you talking about, seriously.

you mean a 3000GT? that'd be a stealth, it's not new, and it was marketed under Dodge, they never made a convertible either.

it'd have to be a Crossfire, PT, Sebring, or he was really drunk and picking on a Lebaron...

I'm betting it was a Crossfire, I think it may say 3000 on it in terms of the engine used...

edit: ok, it's got a 3.2 in it, so I don't know where the hell the 3000 came from...

I'm guessing you had too many and saw an extra 0

ever reported a bigfoot sighting after a 12'er of Coors?:D

they did make a 3000gt convertible, it was a hardtop convertible. the reason i mentioned this is b/c I though that there may be a chance that that was the car that he raced. Plus some of those cars do say CHrysler on the engine. Doesnt sound that off to me,

Plus why the hell are you flaming people who just want to help out. Seems somewhat immature to me. Oh well I just shot an Idea out there for people to think about. Plus you mention that "you mean a 3000GT? that'd be a stealth, it's not new" its not new then turn around and mention A "Lebaron"

Oh well sorry I gave an idea.

Maybe it was a TC Maserati? Oh, why did Maserati let them use that name? Met a guy once (salesman type) who thought he actually owned a real Maserati, not just a K car. Dolt!

haha, sorry to sound like I'm flaming, I just really wanna figure out what this car is...

I listed the LeBaron as a chrylser 'vert.

Show me a 'vert 3kGT though, I've never seen or heard of one.

oh, nevermind here's one http://www.3000gtspyder.com/sp...v.htm

way too few of those though.

I bet he was really drunk and was picking on a Lebaron:D

And I'll bet the most elusive car of the bunch is in the picture with the convertible. Volvo 850 or V70....quick, which is it. And how many cylinders...

It is. The C70 is the "convertible", the S70 is the sedan and the V70 is the "estate" or "versatile" car. You are correct, but which is it, 850 (no alpha designation) or the V70. Its the black one with a roof rack.
