It is only badge re-engineering. The Crossfire went a little farther and designed a new exterior, other than that it is a car designed in 1996.

Don't get me wrong, I love my Crossfire, but it is more like an old comfortable shoe. This is not a state of the art car and never was.
I love my Xfire's they will always be head turners... But on another not, what do you mean by "same as the... '' in the quote, what platform they from? Not a pure mopar chassis ?
