Ok, time for just a little fun and true life humor. Here are a couple of comments that usually come up in conversation about the car. Please add and share yours.

"Is it fast?". Duh, just look at the styling... it has the aerodynamics of a brick. My 97 year old grandmother can push herself faster in her wheel chair.

"Is that the car that has the thingy that comes up as you drive?". Thingy?
Thingy? My car does NOT have a Thingy!

"How big is the trunk?". If I wanted storage space, I'd of bought a van. Or kept my truck.

"Is it fun to drive?". No. Absolutely not. I hate it every moment of every day I have to be behind the wheel. I also have some swamp land to sell you in Arizona.

"Can I drive it?". Do you have $500 to give me for the privaledge in case you do something stupid and I have to pay the deductable?

"That's the one with the Mercedes engine in it, isn't it?". Is there another Crossfire with a different one? Oh, the front wheel drive model!

Can't forget the standard "What is it?". It's a Crossfire. "A what?". Never mind.....

 

"Here's your sign..." Hey, I grew up in North Phoenix/Glendale. I miss the clean, wide, streets out there! I don't miss the summers though!

 

LOL.
I have been asked, "Don't these have a spoiler that goes up and down? Why is yours up all the time?"
"What is that?" That's a good one. I reply, "A Chrysler Crossfire." They reply, "That's a Chrysler?!" I reply, "Well, kind of." Then a long explanation of the car occurs.

 

HAHAHAHAHAHA... Pricless!

It wouldn't be half as funny if it wasn't true

 

My favorite is: "How fast is it?" Their jaw usually drops when I say it's electronically limited to 157mph.

 

Last fall I was filling up at a gas station and the guy next to me said is that thing as fast as it looks? I just said yeah, it pretty quick. He was driving a Ford truck with a V 10 emblem on the side and said "you could probably take me in a short run, but I'd probably get you on a long run with the V10". I just smiled and said will that truck run 200 MPH? He look at me kind of strange and said "that thing will do 200 MPH", I said probably, I've had it to 186 MPH . And I do get a lot of "What is That".

 

A lady at my work that hasn't seen the car yet said " What did you get a Sunfire? You paid to much." LOL a Sunfire.

 

"Oh that's a cute little car."

 

The most comments are "I LOVE YOUR CAR!"

 

LMAO. Yeah, I had a friend (female) back home that wanted a pic of our new toy. I sent it to her and she replied
"Oh, that is adorable."
I think I lost an inch of manhood from that comment.

 

LOL! Now that's funny!

 

the novelty of repeating to onlookers the explanation of how the Crossfire is a stepchild of the Daimler/Chrysler merger quickly loses its appeal.

 

Here is just a few that i have had..

What is it?
-A Car..

What does it cost?
-I payed in dollars...

Damn.. Man that **** is a chrysler? I thought it was a Porsche!!!
-Its a Benz..

-18 in the front.. 19 in the rear..
O, I get it couldn't afford the 19s in the front?

-...yea
Scared you are gonna crash that pretty thing?

Why didn't you buy a corvette?
-because corvette is made in america

-...really?

 

While sitting on the porch of a bed and breakfast in Cresson, Pa I watched some young people park next to my Crossfire before entering the bar down the street. "Look at that midget car you parked next to".

 

all I ever hear is " What Kind of car is that?"

 

"Chrysler 3.2, the same as the intrepid?" :hang head, take a deep breath: "The only Chrysler thing on here is the body."

 

Sidez you crack me up. Methinks we have a lot of the same opinions. LOL

 

Lots of "I love your car" at drive through restaurants.

Once a girl called it "cute".....till I got over a buck fifty on the e-way.......then it wasn't so "cute" anymore.....it was FAST!

My favorite was my buddy's 10 year old....."Is that a Lamborghini?" Priceless!

 

you only have a ""thingy'' if its aboy!

 

Nice ride.... Pretty fast?

That's the nicest one of those I've ever seen..... What is it?

Where did you get your's at?.... I'm thinking of getting one of those.

What kind of wheels are those?

Wow.... That's really nice.... Take us for a ride. (They were referring to the car... and no I didn't.... I'm not stupid .... It's only a two seater).


This next one hurts.... but it's kind of funny.

Is that the new NEON??... I like those wheels. (ouch!!).. (That's what I get for debadging).
