Chrysler still has it's roots in the Motorcity regardless of where the car is built. I'd seen Ford Fusions (built in Mexico) driving around Dearborn, MI 12 months before they were being sold to the public. Chrysler is a German car company now? I guess that means Ford is a Swedish company, a British company and a Japanese company.

Does that mean I can not have fun with my car?
Or is it the car is not a car with an AT.

More along the lines of why you would taunt a Crossfire with such a slow car?

I'm pretty sure that part about FWD is a typo. The Crossfire is RWD IIRC.

If Chuck Norris had an automotive equivalent it would be the Crossfire.

What we do appreciate is that the crossfire Srt has an invoice of $45,858

The cayman S invoice is $51,392

invoice on a 2006 vette is $39,103.

You do the math. Buy one of these other two cars, or buy a crossfire, based on 10+ year old platform that mercedes abandoned, and sold so poorly that they skipped the entire 2006 model year since they had so many 2005's still on dealer lots.

It could easily be the butt of a Dave Chapelle skit. Like Ike pointed out.

Who thought up that name? Like trying to sell Novas in Mexico No Va means no go...

It deserves to be

The squatting dog is hilarious!

the only thing i see related is the red line, they are all 6,500-7,000 rpm
but if you click on the vette link in the competitors listing, the x-fire is not crossreferenced

maybe the 350z is just a competitor to all?
