Hi everyone,

Just wanted to quickly introduce myself and say hello! My name is Kevin and I'm from the Metro Detroit Area. Like all of you, I'm a fellow car enthusiast and I love all cars. I currently own a Acura RSX Type-S, and owned a Cobalt SS Supercharged before that. I'm also a motorcycle rider and ride a 08 Ninja 650R.

I've been looking at replacing my current ride simply for the fact that it's starting to get up there on miles, and even though it's been really good to me since I've owned it and more so for the fact that it's paid off I'm looking to purchase a new vehicle to replace it. I graduated from U of M 3 months ago earning my B.B.A in IT management and was fortunate to land a full time job in my career before I graduated and now with having a 50 mile round trip daily commute I really want a new car with lower miles.

With that being said I've always really liked the Chrysler Crossfire and always was a fan of the SRT-6 and just decided to look them up and was really shocked at what they are going for. Which was why I decided to join this forum and ask!

I've already looked around and went pretty far back in this section looking up information which has really helped me get a good idea about owning an SRT-6.

I'm looking to pick up one with low miles considering that I can get one with pretty low miles for ~18k which is definitely within my price range.

My main question relates to assessing the reliability of the Crossfire SRT-6. Considering that I pick one up with around 25k miles I won't have to replace anything off the bat will I?

It looks like the IC pipe, and the wiring on this model has some known issues. Is there anything else that I should know?

And to give you guys some more context, I'm looking at picking one up and using it as a DD. Might keep the RSX Type-S since it's paid off and use it for the winters, but in the case that I have to sell it I might have to use it during the winter months in which I would invest in some really good winter tires, most likely just purchase new rims and tires for the winter.

It also seems that most owners don't really have any complaints in regards to the 5spd Triptronic transmission. I've always been a go manual or go home person, but the SRT-6 might persuade me otherwise...
