Welcome Deb,

This is a fun group, you can't go wrong with a Crossfire and this group to support you. They are always ready with tips and help when needed.

Somewhere in this forum is a thread that listed all the unique things that come on a Crossfire. Believe me it's quite a full list of items. Like the heater that stays on for a short time when the key is off. Good for the passenger when refueling in cold weather or a quick run into a store. The radio stays on too. Then there are the heated seats, individual heater controls, a very good factory sound system, automatic spoiler deployment (that's spoiler, not parachute). The only negatives so far is that it is governed back to 150 mph and the dreaded CUP HOLDER! If you have time, a lot of time, search for the cup holder remarks!Boy do we hate that thing!

But the best thing of all is...Mercedes drivetrain and reliability at far less than Mercedes price. It's a secret we like to keep.

Welcome,
Richard B.
