Not really. Cerberus will fire people and trim the product line to get the company profitable again. Nothing personal, it's a business decision. The company that emerges will look nothing like the company they bought.

And no, MB will not get back together with them. The "merger" with Chrysler gave them a huge corporate black eye and they won't make that mistake again. The Crossfire, as beautiful as it is, will remain the red-headed stepchild of the automotive world. I'd suggest getting a service manual and learning how to wrench on it yourself or finding a good indy shop if you plan on keeping it because Chrysler's not going to do you any favors. They're looking forward and not back. Once the current crop of certified Crossfire mechanics moves on I doubt you will find many more.
