This has been a sore-spot for Crossfire owners since the point in history when we started getting shunned by both sides. While there are certainly Mopar shows that allow and encourage the Crossfire to enter, there are many that frown upon it because "it's really a Mercedes". Of course, the "All Euro" shows frown on the Crossfire because it's just a sh!tty Chrysler product. Nothing Euro about it! No pedigree!!

So which is it? It might be both, but it can't be neither. IMO "Mopar" badges are just as much of a false advertisement as the three-pointed star. My critique earlier was simply to make life easier for him... but if he doesn't mind explaining himself at every car show, have at it.

I will say that everything that has broken on my car had the Mercedes logo on it... take that for what it's worth.

Miata is right -- at the end of the day, it's your car so put whatever you want on it and tell everyone else what to kiss.

It's a lot like a mohawk -- if you have the ***** to put one on your head, far be it from me to offer to shave it. That doesn't mean you won't get jeers from the elders and other judgmental people. But you wear it because it's an expression of individualism. Tastefully done, and on the right person -- mohawks look badazz. But there are many, many others that simply can't pull it off... try as they might.

I can assure you guys, Nick doesn't lose any sleep over what someone does to their Crossfire. At the end of the day, he would much rather sip Scotch with fellow gearheads, regardless of their car's pedigree, than stand around with a bunch of pretentious people in matching jackets.

Many a rich ******* has gone to the grave lonely, only to discover that buying "elite" brands only burned his money faster -- it didn't buy acceptance. Buy what you can afford, enjoy what you buy, and let the "purists" ********** to their logos. Often it's their only enjoyment in life. Give them that victory.
