Any advice on keeping this news in context, or in general, advice on things to consider before purchasing a Crossfire would be much appreciated!
You haven't made a mistake looking at the Crossfire. This year's Crossfire sales statistic is about as important as the drop is sales of the Ford F-150. Only 76,000 were made, and two-thirds of that by May 1994. The fact is, this car was supposed to demostrate to the WORLD what a Dymler-Chrysler was. When the 3.5 motor was abondoned in the XF because it would be in direct competition to the MB 350 SLK but for half the price, I think this car was swept under the rug.
If you drive one, you will love it. You may be worried about parts, most are available from Chrysler and MB.
There are a lot of folks on the forum that know that they have made the right choice.
