Bobs, its a really great car, but its still a Mercedes. It may have been badged chrysler but the fact remains that it was built in germany by benz using benz parts and will always remain so. If in your mind you want to pretend its a Chrysler, go ahead. But in my opinion its kind of like putting pig on a pogostick.
Look at my original post: Accept it for what it is, drive it, and enjoy it. The Crossfire is a great car!
