Having never driven a crossfire..I assume they drive the same as a slk. Any input ? Thanks ED DAVIS new member
The issues with the convertable top are not that common, just important to those here who have had the experince. Stay away from the 2005 models you'll bwe fine there. Besides, it is not big deal anymore as the 2005 tops are ALL coming of age for replacement.
$3,000.000 your are done for 10 more years.
Don't listen to Oledoc2U. He is old and crotchety and too damm lazy to shift for hisself.
Get that vert, MB or Crossfire with the six speed and enjoy. BTW I have both a 6 spd and an SRT auto. So I have no bias. Well yes I do....get the manual,get the ragtop,,,,,then drive like you meant to do that.
