Didn't know where best to post this, so here it is:

Chrysler : Crossfire | eBay


Interesting and good looking work.

 

Customizer states that the 5-speed Autostick mated up to the 5.7L Hemi without any problems. VERY INTERESTING!!

 

Hey - For those that attended Carlisle this year - Is this the same Hemi Crossfire that showed up?

 

~ it sits a bit high in the front? appears they are using a 19" rim in the front as well? the project would be nice if they could get the ride height to look factory but widing the track creates a funny look end result.

the overall transplant is impressive (lots of fabrication)!

If the front suspension mods were not able to replicate the exact height of the XFire setup, and I doubt the builder was able to do this, then the front end is probably sitting higher just because of the Charger suspension. Builder already stated that front track is 2 inches wider due to Charger hardware. And this required modifying the XFire fenders to keep tires from sticking out of fenders wells.

The 2006 5.7L Hemi had either 340-hp or 350-hp depending on which options were had. And that's not much different than taking a regular SRT-6 and "tweaking" it a bit. Still kind of an interesting ride, none the less. And I agree, really impressive work. Looks "factory".

 

It seems to be , he did mention that he was going to be selling it.

 

Lots of work and well done. But it will take a lot of proven numbers to make this worth more then the $16k going price of a lightly used SRT-6.

 

Its a limited, its one off with suspension alterations, its interesting but as stated the HP is not out of site and the rear is the stock gears and axles, and it 30,000. Someone must want it to pay that amount, doubt there is much bidding. Woody

 

Feedback from builder/seller on front suspension geometry:

"All tires and wheels are factory, stock. Due to the suspension change, car sits a little higher for ground clearance, but it is something we could go back and change to lower the car more. This would be an additional charge. The K-Frame is from the Dodge Charger to accomodate the Hemi Conversion. The car is acutually, only 1/2" higher in the front with the Dodge Charger K-Frame installation. It just appears to look higher than that in the pictures."

Later,

 

Just noticed it's a "SALVAGE" title$30k Hemi Crossfire!

 

No one will buythis for "investmen" status or value.So a Salvage Title is inconsequencial to the likely buyer.


I would sppose that the extra twoinches up front would helpin the turns with the much heavier power plant. But if the car looses the Xfire's nimbleness, then you just have a stop light rocket.

I'm sure it will surprise the hell out othe occasional GT Mustang that meets it on the street but is that worth "30K? Hmmmh Not to most folks.

But then, I wouldn't mind a turn or two in it.

 

The issue with a Salvage Title is that the insurance companies will not pay a car off twice. So, if the buyer purchased the car it could never be insured for theft or damage. You can get basic coverage to cover the other parties car but your $30k Hemi Crossfire would be a loss.

 

True, but anyone getting into the extreme modifcation of a car knows this.

Over modifications, or just rebuilding a classic beyond it's market value, seldom takes the "equity" into the equation. It's all about emotion on a car like this.

If you need loss protection on a car built for crazy racing on the track, or even the street, you are out of your league.

If you have to borrow money to buy it,,,,,,, You are out of your league.

If you can't afford to lose it all ,,,,,,don't put your money in a car like this.

roadster with a stick

 

I had Charger RT/RT there is alot you can do to motor , A hand held tuner can be had for under 300.00 that could give easy HP out of this motor, RT came with 340 RT/RT came with 350 . With diff cam and a tune you are looking at about 390-400 hp,but like the rest of you for 16,000 a srt would be the better bet , but to have that one of kind would be cool but not 30,000 cool

 

Cool but the black maxx edition is cooler.

 

All good points for the new crowd on the forum.

 

"front and rear brakes are stock Crossfire"...........WHOA Nellie.....throw out the anchor...I would of thought that that would have been one important upgraded feature....

 

I think its a very nicely done car..........but the guy is crazy for thinking he will every recoup anything near the invested time/money. You have to practically give away a Crossfire SRT-6 with clean title to sell it let alone a base model flood car with tainted title and a heavy v8 motor that's stock and makes less power than a SRT-6. The guy should've put a 6.1 in the car to begin with..........and put a blower on it. Even then it wouldn't sell for $30k but at least it would be a badazz car to beat up unsuspecting "muscle" cars.

 

Good luck finding a lender for a rebuilt car of this kind.
