I once read an article that changed the way I buy cars. It was called "Look, Honey, I Bought the Bottom of the Line!" If you are seriously looking at logging a lot of miles on your Crossfire, get the SRT6 and do not look back. I bought an N/A coupe first -- the only thing I miss is the stick shift. Then I went straight to SRT6 roadster and could not be happier.

There is no insurance punishment, it insures like a normal passenger car. If you suffer a great deal of body damage, it will be totaled.

If you are serious about putting power to the wheels, you will need an LSD first. Without it there is little point upgrading the power, you have more than the car can handle stock.
