There are a number Crossfire owners in the St. Louis Metro area that subscribe to this forum.

I've had Reddy Freddy ('04 Blaze Red Coupe, 5spd Auto) since March '05 and recently put a Chrysler extended warranty on mine (7 yrs, 85,000 miles). Bought mine brand new with 13 miles on it from Jim Rush in Bolivar, MO. Took a Greyhound bus to save $10,000 off sticker.

At one time, I wanted to start a St. Louis owners group but have never taken the time to organize since our first cruise we did several years ago.

Reddy shares the daily driving duties with my '01 PT Cruiser. Two way cool cars to drive to work, I am most blessed for sure!

You should be able to shop around. Check AutoTrader and you can find some real deals on new and used Crossfires. Since the car is essentially a '04 Mercedes Benz SLK320, I'd suggest buying a new one. Chrysler will give you a lifetime warranty on the driver train and buying a "badged" Mercedes of similar quality, ride, and drive would cost you X0,000s more.

I have over 33,000 trouble free miles, but you know how German cars are .
