Chrysler Crossfire

The Chrysler Crossfire combines American design with German engineering. Look underneath and you'll find a lot of Mercedes parts, including the V6 engine, multilink suspension, and steering. It's based heavily on the first generation Mercedes-Benz SLK.

The Crossfire is available in coupe and convertible models. It seats two passengers in leather-trimmed high-back bucket seats. It is powered by a 215 hp 3.2-liter 18-valve single-overhead-cam V6 engine mated with a six-speed manual transmission (five-speed automatic is optional). Standard safety features include airbags, all-disc antilock brakes, brake assist, traction control, a tire pressure monitoring system, and an electronic stability system.

For 2008, the Chrysler Crossfire gets a standard tire pressure monitoring system. As well, 2008 will be the Crossfires final model year of production.
