I actually worked for Chrysler and the Crossfire was a very fun car to drive, but thats about it. Everything inside felt so cheep. Im also 6', and even with the seat in the most comfortable position, I still had very little leg and arm room and bumped everything even after driving them day after day...

Set that all aside, and it comes to the part about the automatic.

The 04 Rx8 - 4 speed auto, not the best idea in my opinion for the Rx8. Lack of power, more trouble with the engine, lower revs...

The 04 Crossfire - Very quick changing and fun automatic (never thought Id say that). Quick downshifts, and just as many revs.

If your going for an automatic, and have the crossfire in mind, it may be something you've wanted, and isn't as much of a hassle as "most" automatic Rx8's.

Not an issue in this case.

The Crossfire that the OP provided a link to is a Manual Transmission equipped car.

stay away from Salvage Titles unless you have the branding papers (to make it from an Recked title to salvage so you know what was done and by whom)..

other than that, i see they are Autos, I have an auto 04 as well but wish it was an 06 auto just for the added ranges in the gears.

and in that price range, i found at least 120 on online, Id keep shoping around.

Thought you could get banned for the mere mention of the dog squatting taking a poop vehicle name?
