Fact is the crossfires were designed for the autobahn just like the SLK. Mechanically it is the same car!

They were designed by the british for American roads. Aerodynamically, they're different which matters at 140mph.

As for the back end... that is why there are pop up spoilers just like Audi and Porsche. To help push the rear end down at high speeds.
The NA wing is a fraction the size of a Porshe. Again, designed for American roads.

I'm not knocking the NA. It's a great high-performance car. I drove one for 3 years and thought it compared well with my C4 Vette and certainly wouldn't mind owning another one.
