I had one for almost a year. It was a terrific driving machine. I souped it up to 420hp. It handled great and went like stink... all the way to my mechanic. I owned the car for 11 months, and it spent 9 of them in the shop. I'd own one again, though.
The non SRT/AMG Crossfire is also pretty good and quick. Not as fast but it is awesome on the highway. The electronic transmission shuts down the speed at 155mph and the SRT at 185mph !! Amazing for a V6 German/Chrysler sports car ! I had mine at 145mph, smooth as silk, handled very well at that speed, the car tightens up the faster you go. The regular one has a hidden spoiler that comes out of the rear hatch at 60mph, this way the wind pushes on it so it sticks to the road like an Indy car lol….Lots of fun to drive and mine was very reliable, year round too.
It appears that you are not well-informed about the car industry. Let me provide you with some context - the two companies merged, but unfortunately, Benz took over in a hostile manner. This resulted in the creation of the Chrysler Crossfire, a car that was produced from 2004 to 2008. The Crossfire was developed using the Mercedes-Benz R170 platform, and its production occurred at the Karmann factory located in Osnabrück, Germany. It was available in both coupe and convertible versions and was marketed as a sports car. I strongly recommend that you conduct extensive research before making videos to ensure that you have accurate information. This will help you avoid presenting misleading information and showcase a more knowledgeable perspective.
I have a renntech pack convertible in the same silver blue i bought it in 2012 used with 17k miles only 1 owner..i still have the car minor wear over the years to the soft top other than that its still mint condition low miles glad to see these still around i havent seen any other 1s in my city so i like the uniqueness of that aspect i have seen 3 base models around but no srt6..this color scheme is my favorite..
I have one the same color, I picked it up for nothing because it had a no start issue... It was the rcm (relay control module). It took a week to receive the part, 5-10 minutes to install and 30 seconds to start.
Thanks for a really fun vid that restored my interest I 've never seen a SRG 6 with the badging for AMG above the radio. I had a friend that had one, 2005 he bought in 2009 no center council badge. Test drove 2, no badge. Just looked at all available on car gurus, none had it. Think that was an add on? Or maybe they all fell off? Appreciate feedback from anyone that knows.
@@darkknightcars7951 It is a perfect little accent. We Isuzu Vehicross owners have a few members that 3D print similar plaques. They are an interesting oddball vehicle in 4x4. Worldwide production was around 5,500, all handmade, 97-2001. First yr in US, 1999 they stickered at 29,600 but there was such demand dealers were demanding $35000, and often getting it. Got a 99 with 000340 original miles that I wouldn't think of anything under $40,000 for. Still has that Recaro Leather new car smell.
I own 1 since 2012 You need to know cars a little and be able to do your own tune ups and treat it like your second wife or it will let you down. I have a lot of spare parts and changed all the sensors on it. Great ride, closest you’ll ever get to a super car with a considerably low budget. Oh, and the transmission has a mind of its own.
The engine was not hand built by the AMG. It is an AMG tuned and put together on a production line. It is not "True" AMG ("ONE person, ONE engine"). I had one 11 years ago and it was awesome. Great engine, but the handling and the transmission were not that good.
Wrong. The SRT-6 is equipped with the M113K supercharged, intercooled, developed and hand-built AMG engine. Among other AMG performance upgrades, also available in the SLK32 AMG.

The Crossfire was built on the same platform as the Mercedes SLK coupe. All Crossfire's were a joint effort between the two companies.
Yeah no wonder they were junk lol it all adds up now
Yeah we know! It’s old news.
@@darkknightcars7951talking crap. These cars are brilliant. Why do you think there’s still loads on the roads and they were reliable. Jog on troll

and NOBODY wants to work on it. Chrysler won't touch it. Mercedes might.... maybe

Not really strange. Built in the days of DamliarChrysler, based on Mercedes SLK.
car tubers lol
@@gregorizi I found it strange never knew they made it.
I have the same exact car and i love 💘 it. 170,000 miles and runs like new.
Do you work at a dealership? First job in the car business?
Nunca eu imaginava que existia esse lindo carro, pena que no Brasil é difícil achar e o preço é absurdamente alto.
The Dodge Charge & Challenger build off the E Class from Mercedes of that time. They even share many parts.
Thats terrible for Mercedes
There is no speed limiter on the SRT 6. I reached speeds over 180 mph in mine.
There is no governer??

@@omnipotentwonder I think the owner added that badge on these it is a nice touch!
