Chrysler Crossfire Review
The Chrysler Crossfire
was officially unveiled on the 15th November 2003 and we were invited
to drive both the automatic and manual variants at a Chrysler press
day.
The Crossfire is built in Germany in collaboration with Karmann who also produced the Ghia Coupe & Cabriolet the most beautiful bodies ever to adorn a VW chassis. The Crossfire combines a stunning American design with proven German engineering (39 percent of the new car’s components are adapted from existing DaimlerChrysler technology) and the result is a larger than life coupe set to challenge the Audi TT, BMW Z4, Nissan 350Z and Porsche Boxster.
