Chrysler Crossfire 3.2 V6

I've driven over 60,000 (uncomfortable) miles in my Chrysler Crossfire 3.2 V6 and have (generally) loved every minute of it.

Hated being 'challenged' by every souped up hatch-back on the block.

Apart from the annoying knocking from the boot, the Crossfire has been tremendously reliable.

I suppose that I should comment on the mpg (22.279 over the 60,000 miles, 24.85 over one 300 mile distance) but hey you don't buy a car like this to be frugal.

The Chrysler Crossfire is basically an American muscle car with German pedigree. Built largely on Mercedes underpinnings and engine components this little sportscar really packs a punch. Push the pedal to the floor and the 3.2 litre V6 engine growls like a predator, accellerating you from 0-60 in just a shade over 6 seconds, which is more than enough excitement for day to day use. Handling can be a little skittish as it runs away with you in the wet, but this is where the Mercedes steptronic auto box really comes into it's own, with different settings for winter and summer driving. The cabin is well equipped, comfortable and imparts the feeling of safety. Boot space is surprisingly large for a car in this class. Everything about this car is solid.
