I have an 05 crossfire and my steering wheel adjusts. There is a hidden lever in the steering column. If you put summer tires on it, the car sticks to the road big time!! It will corner way better and faster!! They cost about $150-200 each.

Oh thanks for the kind words! I can highly recommend one and a lot of the videos I watched seem to focus on all the negatives and dismiss it but I think it's such a great car and has its own character. If you're considering buying one I'd say they're pretty reliable, as the engine is quite robust and unstressed, and there's not so many electrics to worry about. Just check the spoiler goes up at 60mph automatically, rust around the car, and things like the headlining dropping. Fortunately I had none of those issues. Good luck and I'm sure you won't regret it!

Your ashtray is broken, it’s supposed to gently slide out,. The US models did not include that mysterious red button. I have owned a 2004 model as the 4th owner for 9 years and I love it. It stands out at car meets since most people don’t know what it is.

Oh I see! That would explain its savagery ejecting. I couldn't see anything obviously broken but perhaps there's some sort of soft open mechanism. I understand the red button is a UK specific add on to meet the requirements for alarms for an industry body we have here (Thatcham). I think that body approves the alarms for car insurance so you can say you have one fitted. Looks very aftermarket though! Wow you've had yours ages! Completely agree it stands out. I think they are quite well known over here but quite rare to see out and about. I think it has quite an unfair reputation here! Hope you continue to enjoy yours and have it for.many more years!

Great review. I am on my 7th year of ownership of a grey 2004 reg and I have loved every minute of it. I am actually going to put it to bed this year in the garage and save it for the odd weekend or the summer and I am buying a Mercedes E Class around 2017 reg as an everyday car. I will never sell it. From the outset I have had compliments, been in in depth car conversation etc. With it being grey and grey being the most popular new car colour some people think it is a brand new car but it is 04 reg so it also confuses some people as it is so rare they have never seen one. The only problem I ever had was a year after I bought it, it broke down (crank shaft sensor, a common problem) at a bus stop on a main road and the bus turned up full of people!

@carmanick 2 жыл бұрын
That's great you've had it so long and still enjoy it! I think it's such a great wow-looking car and is very distinctive, but not sure I've had the same admiration as you! Apart from the odd time maybe! I think when people come out in it they are more convinced when they see and feel how special it is, the cabin, details, sound, the feel in that small snug cabin with the thin windows and long bonnet! It has aged incredibly well and many people won't really know so much about Chrysler in the UK so it's almost exotic! I think if that's the only problem you've had then that's pretty good, although maybe not an ideal place to breakdown! Mine was pretty reliable actually, I had a lumpy idle which appeared to be a dirty maf sensor but otherwise just maintenance! I think it's great you're going to put it to bed over winter as that'll help preserve it going forward, especially as it's nearly 20 years old and not exactly appreciative of salty roads!

Fantastic GT cars these. I love mine, 05 manual and with 130k on the clock its a pure toy. Not my daily. These do get a lot of hate as they look different with the art deco styling. They stand out and people have trouble with things different from the norm. A bit like my love of the band Devo. You cannot compare them to anything else and people are mostly frightened of things that do not conform. I always think to myself "great. You are triggered. That makes me love them even more".

I'm having many problems on my videos when uploading to KZbin. I need to improve the pure recording yes but KZbin seems to distort the sound so much that the background noise is exaggerated. SRT is the dream! I think the standard car feels pretty fast so an SRT-6 must feel mental. I'm just under 6 foot. Headroom is ok, I found that legroom is maybe more of an issue as the seat hits the bulkhead and you've got to then have the seat more upright. Well we have lots of track days in the UK, but that was a track we hired out so it was a short one-on one-off sprint route. Not so many of those circuits you can hire out but it's a good place to have fun and push a car with little risk. The crossfire was much more exciting and playful that I expected and was pretty quick compared to other cars that were there

Muscle car? Mercedes was putting V8’s in the SLK the same years the crossfire was out.

It's more about the character, the feel. Yes it has a V6, but still. It has that Americano feel, the sound, the performance, that sort of simple fun. But yes the SLK55 AMG is a lot more Brutish and more of a performance car. But it's all subjective of course and others may disagree!
