ENJOY & SHOW! Recalling the sporting and luxurious character of the
"Letter Series" 300 models offered by Chrysler during the 1950s and
1960s, the Crossfire was produced for just 2004-08. A combination
of fresh new styling, proven Mercedes-Benz mechanicals, and
high-quality construction by the renowned Karmann coachworks in
Germany, the Crossfire was the first new Chrysler production model
following the 1998 Daimler-Chrysler merger. Many of its styling
cues also inspired a bold new era for design at Chrysler during the
2000s and beyond, including concept cars, styling exercises, and
new models, particularly in terms of frontal styling.Underneath its
gorgeous skin, the Crossfire shared the R170 Mercedes-Benz
platform, including about 80% of its mechanical components. As
Mercedes-Benz shifted to production of the R171 SLK models, the
Crossfire was built at Karmann using the original R170 production
lines. The Crossfire's unique styling and upper bodyside styling
inspired the 'Crossfire' name, particularly the character lines
which cross from concave to convex forms as one looks from front to
rear. A wide, down swept "boattail" rear treatment pays stylistic
homage to the great Bugatti and Talbot-Lago models of the Classic
Era, plus of course, the daring Chrysler Airflow of the mid-1930s.
Credit for the Crossfire's styling goes to Chrysler stylist Eric
Stoddard, who designed the breathtaking 2001 Crossfire concept car,
with refinements for production readiness penned by Andrew Dyson.
Production commenced in 2003 for a 2004 sales launch.All 2004
Crossfires were sleek, low-profile Coupes, designated as 'Limited,'
equipped with a wide array of standard features and amenities
included. Based on an extremely stiff chassis and body structure,
the Crossfire features seating for two ahead of a substantial rear
bulkhead housing the standard Infinity stereo subwoofer and
speaker, plus storage pockets. The upper surface of the center
console, shifter knob, and even the headliner echo the raised
longitudinal character line to the roof of the car and the stamped
lines adorning the Crossfire's hood. Staggered 18-inch front, and
19-inch rear, tires and wide, ultra-low profile performance tires
and 4-wheel disc brakes were standard equipment. When the Crossfire
was new, factory-advertised performance credentials included 0-60
mph acceleration under 7.0 seconds and a 14-second quarter-mile,
with 1.1g on the handling skidpad all worthy of many much more
expensive competitors.Sporting the driver-preferred 6-speed manual
gearbox, this first-year Crossfire Limited Coupe from the inaugural
2004 model year is a fabulous offering with just two prior owners
and 15,400 original miles, supported by the accompanying Carfax
vehicle-history report. Power is delivered by the M170
Mercedes-Benz SOHC 3.2L V-6 engine rated at 215 horsepower.
Passenger amenities are comprehensive, including A/C, cruise
control, an Infinity AM/FM CD stereo, anti-theft, and power brakes,
steering, seats, windows, and locks. Offered with limited prior
ownership, low mileage, and equipped with the 6-speed manual
transmission, this exceptionally original and attractive 2004
Chrysler Crossfire is immensely desirable with fast-rising
collector interest to boot. See it now! Contact us for viewing
