Some folks don't like the idea of putting a Mercedes Star on the Crossfire and I admit it seems a bit tacky. Still, does anyone recall the TC model car that was built by Maserati for Chrysler? I think that they had the Trident emblem on the car even though it had Chrysler on it also. So the idea of putting a Mercedes emblem isn't so bad as I first thought. But of course, the Chrysler Maserati badging was done with both company's blessings. Just a thought.
