OT - Chrysler Crossfire
I recently saw a TV show on the Speed Network on the Chrysler Crossfire. It is built at Karmann in Germany. They took it around some sports car track by Las Vegas, then they took it to the Mohave desert. On the Autobahn in Germany the driver got it up to 150 mph and let go of the steering wheel to show how rock steady it was at speed. (Sound familiar?) It has 215 hp and weighs around 3000 lbs. (Sound familiar?) It seems to be a sports, luxury, GT car with 'love it' or 'hate it' styling. (Sound familiar?) They said it will sell in the USA for around $35000. (Sound familiar?) I hope Chrysler can seel them It will be in a market segment with a lot of competition and the Chrysler name does not have much cache'. (Sound familiar?) I have my doubts about it selling well. All it needs is AWD and it could be the 2004 sucessor to the SVX.
PS: I wonder how many Earl will have in about 10 years?
