Fp... You are starting to sound like me. I always said the crossfire would be remembered for a point it time when mb was married to Chrysler.
Only thing you must know... There is another car that was created from the merger. The Pacifica is also more Benz than Chrysler. But I doubt that will ever become a classic. Even some of th previous model jeep grand Cherokees share some parts with Benz. But in your defense... I think the crossfire is the closest cousin to a Benz that you will ever find... And that is why I think it will be remembered by car fanatics.
