1. Never tested
2. I can fit 2 full sets of golf clubs, and the trunk is deep, so groceries stay put if you fill it enough!
3. The car is probably well over 80% German. Even the brake calipers have the Mercedes sign on them! The only sense that the car is american is in the poor fitment of the console lid.
4. Oh, ummm, some hate it (I hate it), some say it's fine. Look around for posts on service w/ Chrysler for these cars.
5. I think the car was great in the snow (w/ all-season continental's). I went up a steep, icy 3 inches of snow w/o a problem, and went home on the highway at 80 in the slushy stuff, pretty good.
6. The key seems fine to me...it looks a little cheap w/ the plastic, but it always seems to spark conversation. Heck, I always raced my VW friends in their keys, to see which one comes out faster. It seems the Crossfire's is faster, and it is lighter and more compact than the VW keys.
