This beautiful, sporty little car is (in my opinion) one of the most mis-understood and overlooked values on the market today. The car has a rather unique “pedigree” in that it was built and marketed during the model years 2004 through 2008 during the time when Chrysler and Daimler Benz had merged and were attempting to cooperate on vehicle design and marketing. This merger did not work well for many reasons, but cars like the Crossfire were the “victims” of this mis-matched “marriage”. They were not marketed well and suffered from poor sales volume as a result.

The Crossfire itself was a wonderful vehicle! It was (and still is) a very good looking and performing car built entirely on the Mercedes SLK320 Chassis and Drivetrain with Chrysler contributing only the body design (which was actually built by Karmann in Germany…more confusion) and the car was assembled in Germany for sales around the world. To me, it is one striking little sports car that never received the acclaim that it was worthy of!

This particular example of the car is an amazing machine! It is the 2006 roadster (convertible) model with the Limited package (meaning it was the fanciest model offered). It has accumulated only 36,200 miles, all put on the car by the original owner, and has the original “aero blue” paint with a contrasting 2-tone gray leather interior, both in near perfect condition. Everything about this car is original and it has been maintained religiously…even the original wheels are flawless! It was sold new locally and driven very sparingly and only in good weather. It is loaded with all of the options including dual climate control, Infinity stereo system, heated seats, home link system, 6 speed manual transmission, and a host of other niceties that one wouldn’t expect to find on a small “sports car”! The Mercedes V-6 engine in the car makes it amazingly fast, and its suspension and chassis attributes make it stick to the road like glue! It is an absolute blast to drive, and it runs, drives, and even looks like a brand new car! In my opinion, there has never been a finer looking and performing sports car on the road, and everywhere I go I get questions and compliments about it. This has to be one of the finest examples available! It even has a custom set of luggage (with the Crossfire logo) that was designed specifically for the car to take maximum advantage of the limited storage space in the trunk!

The fine print: Despite the remarkable, original condition of this vehicle, it IS a used car and is sold as is where is with no warranty expressed or implied. Any offer to buy this car will be construed as a commitment by the person making the offer to complete the purchase. If there are any questions at all about the car, please ask them before submitting your offers. I will assist any transporter in the loading of the car, but any necessary transportation costs and arrangements shall be the responsibility of the buyer. Payment for the car will have to be completed before any delivery takes place, and fund transfer will have to be in the form of bank wire transfer within 3 days of the close of the sale. I will assist as best I can to make this an easy transaction, but it will be very business-like for both parties protection. Also, the car is listed for sale in several other venues, so I reserve the right to end this auction at any time if the car becomes unavailable.

Chrysler recalling 630k Jeep models worldwide

Thu, 06 Jun 2013

Despite its refusal to recall 2.7 million Jeep Grand Cherokee and Liberty models this week over a gas tank fire risk, Chrysler will be recalling 630,000 Jeep Compass (pictured), Patriot and Wrangler vehicles around the globe for a pair of entirely different reasons.
The affected Compass and Patriot models are all from the 2010 to 2012 model years - 254,000 in the United States, 45,400 in Canada and 109,000 elsewhere in the world. In these models, a software error may result in the late deployment of the side airbags and seatbelt tensioners. In the event of a crash, failure of these systems could result in more serious injuries for the vehicle's occupants.
Jeep's go-anywhere Wrangler also faces a separate recall due to power steering fluid lines that can possibly wear a hole in the transmission oil cooler line. According to Chrysler, the vehicles could then leak fluid, possibly damaging the transmissions. Roughly 221,100 Wrangler models are being recalled because of this issue, all of which are fitted with Jeep's 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine. In the US, 181,000 vehicles are affected, with an additional 18,400 in Canada and 21,700 additional units worldwide. A Chrysler spokesperson said that no crashes or injuries have been reported with either case, according to the Associated Press.

Hot sales have Detroit automakers shortening summer shutdowns

Tue, 08 Jul 2014

Back in May, there was speculation that the Detroit Three automakers would maintain or perhaps even extend their traditional summer shutdowns, mostly due to a bitingly cold winter that saw below-freezing temperatures infiltrate the southernmost reaches of the US, putting a chill on auto sales. Now, though, the numbers are in, and thanks to some promising sales figures, it looks like some domestic line workers are going to be working clear through July, in some cases.
According to Automotive News, Ford has slashed its traditional two-week hiatus for factory workers in half at four of its plants, while both Chrysler and General Motors will keep factories running nonstop (two plants in Chrysler's case and a third of GM's factories).
This is, as we said, thanks to some positive numbers. Chief among those is the Seasonal Adjusted Annual Rate, which was at an eight-year high of 17 million units. Individual figures were less promising. GM, embroiled in its recall scandal, still saw a one-percent increase while Ford dropped six percent in year-over-year sales. Chrysler was the big winner, though, with a nine-percent jump in June.
