"This car is a great alternative to Mercedes or Lexus. Style by Mercedes designers. Solid engineering, performance and luxury. Maintenance is reasonable and very reliable. Great value sedan. This one actually has upgrades in the dash and exterior trims is very well maintained."

"Majestic comes to mind. I'm a big guy and this car is plush and comfortable. Good fuel mileage, quite, great sound system, makes carry 4 adults & luggage a breeze, rear air is nice with good head/leg room, trunk is large enough for a small family. I've owned Jags, Cadillacs and SUVs; this is by far the best bang for the $$s. The only negative is you have to be careful of the blind spot when changing lanes and backing"

"While my car is 5 almost 6 years old, I have done nothing but regular maintenance and it runs great. I do not have the hemi and get 27 mpg regularly. So, I do love this car and am now getting itchy to get a newer model. It is tough as I have the Signature model and they did not make a lot of them. To find another will be tough."

"although a great looking car with a comfortbale ride and interior it is my experience that this first generation model did not have the bugs worked out of it. I purchased the vehicle used and have had nothing but problems with it. I have had issues with the headlights the entire time I have owned it (3 yrs) The headlights have been "fixed" 4 times but still don't work however the last two times i have had it in the shop they have been unable to find the problem and have basically told me i have to live with a luxury automobile whose headlights will randomly turn off while driving down the road. The alignment has also been worked on many times to no avail. The transmission has also had issues although car only has 52,000 miles on it. For the money I paid for this vehicle I have been thouroughly dissappointed in its reliability and performance."

"My favorite thing about the car is the looks. There is no other car like it. However, I do have problems with the insides of the car. The air conditioner does not work, I get the a/c gassed up and about a week later, it will leak out, causing no cold air. Also, it burns oil. About every 1500 miles I have to add at least a quart of oil. And the transmission slips. At times, I will have gas pedal down, but all car does is shake and sputter until all of a sudden it will just take off. I never know when this will happen, so I am cautious of taking a road trip. And last, my check engine light has been on for over a year. The car looks good, but unfortunately Chrysler needs to improve the "guts" of the car."

"I bought the 2005 convertible almost as soon as they hit the streets and it's been the most reliable and fun car I've owned. Everything on the machine works as advertised and some of the technical aspects... such as the convertible top operation is mind-boggling, it's so well designed. I now have 45,000 miles on the Crossfire and nothing has malfunctioned thus far. It's also proven to be quite economical; getting slightly better gas mileage than I expected: 21 mpg in town and 28 mpg on the road. I have the auto stick and it's a superb transmission! Handling and brake operation are as good as any car I've ever driven. I live in the south and am able to drive the car with the top down the great majority of the time and it's a real head-turner. I still have people stroll up at gas stations and ask, "What is that thing?" With the top up there is surprising trunk space; quite roomy. The peppy Mercedes V-6 engine has power galore, great acceleration, and has yet to burn a drop of oil? In fact, my mechanic and I have agreed to lengthen the time between oil changes because the old oil is so clean! About my only criticism is a poorly designed cup holder and it's just about unusable. All in all, this vehicle was one of my better moves and I still love driving the little bombshell. I recommend the car highly."
