Default Re: Crossfire 2.0

I was thinking while I was looking head on at the Cross while it was parked, how much it looked like the old MB 450SL, and that's more of what I'd like to see in a Cross 2.0 . That elegance in a car that would really rip, not so much the hard edges sports cars, there's tns of those, but one that people knew was a real player. So that's why I was thinking that the boattail be retained, just not a fastback. There would be a rear window behind the seats, maybe a small cubby if you will to the glass, that then flattens out on the trunk, giving more usable touring space, and yet retaining the muscular flanks of the car, with that long hood out front. That's what i would like to see. maybe that's what i was seeing in why I think the Cross someday will truly be a collectible classic design. I see that MB SL and the MB 300 gullwing in the Cross.
