I just saw a picture on the front of MotorTrend magazine of the new Chrysler Crossfire. I didn't pick up the magazine because I thought I could get all the info from their web site but I can't find it. It's a BEAUT, and the price tag sounds good too.
If anyone can get pics, please post or link here. The interior is out of this world. It's a must see.

I saw that last night too, it's a rear wheel drive and has the 'fastback'.

Very cool.

...sorry, no link though. (Saw it at 7-11)

They also debuted the Super8 Hemi. I don't care for the design too much, although it is kinda hard to tell from that one picture.. but it's features are incredible!

Here you go.

There's a fair bit of '63 Corvette Stingray in there as well as the Audi. This car is supposed to hit 60 mph in under 6 seconds. The designer of the Crossfire is even younger than Brian Nesbitt, would you believe 25 years old?

  I don't know where DaimlerChrysler is going with it's new designs,but I do not like it. Yes the CrossFire is pretty sharp but has a lot of Euro influence in it in my opinion.
But that Willy's Jeep concept and the Super Hemi....come on!!! They kill a beautiful Hemi product in the form of the 300 HEMI C which could have easily been brought into production and bring out this laughable looking vehicle that looks like it could suck up a 747 Jumbo Jet in it's grille?
And a Jeep with injection molded plastic seats...just rip some plastic chairs off from some school cafetiria,take my PT's seats out and stick them in there place. Has to be about as comfortable. This is in my opinion just plane sad. Looks like they might have hired a few GM designers who are trying to lose thier "angle" design ideas but havent quite made it yet.

Chrysler seems to have another winner with the Crossfire. I wonder what they will sell for if the produce them. I'm sure they'll cost a lot more than a PT Cruiser. Oh well, at least I can dream.
