i wish karmann would just buy the crossfire name, scrape the ugly gold pt cruiser crap off, put a better interior in it, and take over, selling the car for the same price. they ought to just call it the karmann crossfire. it could be like the next karmann ghia. as far as resale value goes, hold on to your car. there's about as many crossfires as there are prowlers, so they will become more and more of a rarity.
