Hi Dallas,
I'm in practically the same position as you.
1. I've pretty much decided in favour of the Crossfire against the 350z the Z4 and thr RX8 but for the money I could still pick up a well cared for Porche 966 Carrera 2. 8)
2. If I go for the Crossfire then it'll definitely be the auto as the box is one of the best that Mercedes make, it offers the option of normal, sport and winter settings aswel as manual toggle shifting - so practically the best of all worlds. :wink:
3. As for colour, I had my heart set on Graphite, but having seen a Black Crossfire, well it looks so sleek but then, it'll get dirty, so I'll probably plump for the SSB because as you say it really highlights the cars lines and changes colour tone according to the light - sometimes silver, sometimes graphite sometimes blue - very chameleon. 8)
4. I'm waiting for a delivery time and price quote for the SRT-6 so I can see if it's worth waiting and paying extra bucks for what will be an awsome motor - 330 bhp in a little Crossfire :!: - it'll have the power to weight ratio to match practically anything around. Lets see.
:roll:
