Trust me - back in this period, being a German Marque was not a testament to reliability. They nearly all had quirky failures. And the Canvas Roadster tops on just about all of them had rear windows separate from poor glue adhesion due to higher temperature exposures. Took them nearly 10 years to come up with a glue that withstood Southern USA temperatures. But I still like the reference to the Crossfire being included as a 'high-end' vehicle.
