Some of the new SLKs and CLKs have good design points, but then the rest of the car shows up and ruins the show for me. The only one I've truly liked so far is the SLK 55 MINUS the huge triad on the front... if they had a different grill with a bit more muted triad it would be a winner!
Again, just opinion, but that's mine. (Do you like my belly-button)?
The Crossfire, whether a, Base, Limited or SRT, Coupe or Convertible... they are all beautiful. I'd have to say if I had not been so impulsive, I would have bought the Aero-Blue SRT6 Convertible or Coupe... but definitely blue...
Black is good... but more work to keep nice than my busy schedule (read : Lazy A$$) can keep up with.
Cheers!
