Gents:

Thanks for taking time to respond. I appreciate all of your input.

With their Mercedes Benz heritage, I imagined that the Crossfires would be on the more comfortable end of the sport car spectrum. I'm just going to have to drive one and find out. A lot of people complain that the Viggen suspension is too harsh, but with the stock springs and adjustable Konis on full soft, mine is an amazing highway cruiser.

Steve, I have no doubt that a modified Crossfire would spank my modified Viggen in most areas. It's a much more modern platform, and with RWD and the low end torque I imagine the supercharger gives, I wouldn't have a chance at the stoplights or in the twisties. But on the highway from 40 to 140, I might surprise you.

One of the reasons that an SRT6 appeals to me is that it could be a daily driver that would also be a lot of fun. I drive almost 2 hours a day, so I need to have an enjoyable car even as a daily driver.

The fuel consumption is a potential problem, though. I was going broke a couple summers back buying $4.25/gal premium. I've been thinking of a Mazdaspeed3 or a MR2, but I just noticed that with an SRT6 you get an awful lot of car for the money.

Thanks again, and best regards,

Dave
