Chrysler Crossfire Coupe (2003 - 2008) 3.2 V6 2d Auto Owner Review

I originally purchased to have around three months summer driving and then sell, maybe make a little profit. However during the summer everything about the car grew on me - first registered November 2003, It was 'tired' and high mileage so I spent a little on it, the engine was remapped which definitely provided more torque mid-range and increased bhp to around 230, alloy wheels were in bad shape so had them completely refurbished and fitted slightly over-sized tyres that provided even better road holding and, being wider, help protect the rims, fitted parking sensors to front and rear, fitted front day-light running lamps, added a few subtle badges (interior & exterior) to acknowledge the Mercedes-Benz heritage and Karmann coach building and a little accessory 'chroming' on the radiator grill, front air intakes and side vents which is now standard on modern MB SL, Jaguar F type and similar. So I now have an unusual and relatively rare car (just over 3,000 left in UK), cosmetically updated, very quick but equally not a fussy car to drive and a real head turner. Certainly NOT selling now and have bought a Mitsubishi SWB Shogun for a daily general purpose vehicle. Downside? - be prepared for other drivers wanting to know what it is and asking a few questions. Had some 'fun' recently with a Jaguar F Type Coupe (the cars look similar from the rear) and we pulled in at a motorway service station - the driver could not believe that my car was fourteen years older than his and he couldn't lose me!! If you are shy and retiring, then this maybe not be the right car for you!!
