Initially the styling alone sold me. The car is so unique and gorgeous looking. I loved the gas mileage too. I've gotten 29 MPG out of my limited auto coupe on the highway, I have had 4 cylinder cars that don't get that kind of mileage. The car handles incredibly well, it's very well balanced. It stops on a dime. All of the materials inside the cabin feel very high quality, and in general the car feels very well engineered and buttoned down. Mine has almost 45,000 miles on it now, and it still looks and feels as tight as a new one. It doesn't squeak, shake, rattle, or perform in any way short of new. I loved the almost non-existent servicing the car would need, and love knowing this car will likely go for several hundred thousand miles having Mercedes-Benz mechanicals. The German engineering really is worth the price in that regard. I love all of the little gizmos the car has: tire pressure monitoring system, light bulb burn out monitoring system, traction control, one touch down windows, heated seats, autostick tranny, key with built in remote, automatic retractable spoiler, there are so many I can't even think of right now. I just love the fact this is an American car that's built with wholly German parts in Germany. If this car was marketed by Mercedes-Benz instead of Chrysler, it would likely be a good $10,000 more simply because of that. I love that unique part of the car's heritage. I love the fact they are so limited in quantities too... you see countless 350Z's and Audi TT's, but the Crossfire is an uncommon and commanding sight to this day. Having driven a 350Z, I must say that the Crossfire just exudes a ritzier and certainly more well-built feel. I love the fact that since Chrysler and Mercedes have split, that there will likely be no more Crossfires. We're going to remain an elite club, with unique collector cars one day. :-) I love the attention the car gets too, I paid $16k for mine, but it gets more attention than almost anything on the road. Owning the Crossfire is just plain fun. Yes, it's not the barn burner it could be (unless you own an SRT-6), but I grin from ear to ear almost every time I drive it.

So what don't I like about the Crossfire? Leg and head room, I'm 6'3" and can't get comfortable in the car, it's too cramped. If they could have re-engineered the bulkhead behind the seat, I would be fine. I dislike only having one (albeit neat) cupholder. Non SRT-6 cars could use a little bit more pep. A sunroof would have been nice, the cabin is pretty confining. That's pretty much it, I love my Crossfire!!
