Are you sure they never aired that commercial? I sure thought that I saw it a couple of times.
Probably too much nudity for most markets.

No, associating a beautifully crafted and well engineered machine with nature is gay.
Ever see high-end euro car commercials? They are always focused around precision engineering and mechanical beauty... not naked men.
EDIT: ... or the Planeteers.

I didn't find it provocative sexually at all really. Not too the extent it would be unsuitable. Axe commercials are more sexual than that. I simply just feel like it focused on theatrics more than on the merits of the car. There were less than 10 secs of actual crossfire footage.
But I'd definitely be in favor of a "300 (the movie, not car)" style version commercial for the Crossfire.

Wow! Now that I'm a hardcore Crossfire fan, it has to be one of the best car commercials I have ever seen! I wish I can remake it as the car being an SRT-6 model instead! 
Video rocks!

This wasn't done by Chrysler. It was done by a Crossfire owner that was a Film Student. I can't remember what school he went to, but I know he did this "commercial" as his final project before graduation. That's actually him in the Video. I'll look up his info. I have it saved somewhere.
