Positive Review
I’ve owned it about two years, drive it daily, with no problems. Even getting good mileage from the Michelin PS2 tires, which is a bit of a surprise. In addition to being a drop-dead gorgeous, reasonably high performance sport coupe, it is really an above average grand touring car. We have driven it from FL to VA to SC and back (over 1500 miles) to FL several times and it is a delight. I can fit a 28” two-suiter, two 22” carry-on style suitcases, and the two Crossfire duffels in the back with room to spare. Really amazing. We use the optional Nav. system all the time, and although it doesn’t have a very big display, this system has a large vocabulary and provides plenty or aural cues and directions. Strongly recommend it if you are looking to buy a Crossfire. This car is a great buy, especially since they are so deeply discounted by the dealers. I love it.

Critical Review
I purchased this car used with 7,000 miles on it when it was 9 months old. I have had nothing but problems. The heated seat broke, the roof leaked, the interior and trunk lights burnt out, the clutch went at 18,000 miles and transmission problems. I have had to pay $1,450 for a new clutch since warranty only covered it until 12,000 miles. I had to pay for the light bulbs to be replaced which cost me $46.00. Chrysler fixed everything else under warranty except the transmission. They insist that there is nothing wrong it even though it has slipped out of first or reverse into neutral when driving on the road. It has been in service for 47 days since I've owned it. I would have qualified for lemon law but missed it by 28 days. I've contacted Chrysler several times and they are unwilling to do anything!

I have a 2005 Red Coupe, 60,000 mi, excellent condition. A very fun & eye catching car. Owned 2 years with no problems. I'm a small figured female so it's not an issue to fit comfortably however a larger or taller person may not fit well. Drives & handles as a performance car should...will get up & go in a hurry! Not a spare tire due to the different size tires. A kit/fix a flat, compact compressor is the only means to repair.
Recent repairs tranny speed sensors , electricical for starting issues 2 back tires,took to good German car shop 3000$ total in repairs work.good leather red seat interior good body good ,may need power steering seals + resivour update for cooling .
The price given on my 05 SRT6 Roadster was way off. You couldn't but the car for the 9 to 10 thousand they say it is valued at. Dealers have these cars on there lots with 40 to 50 thousand miles on them in the low to mid 20 thousand dollar range.
A great cruising car.
Nothing to mention.
Roadster is stylish and fun to drive. Handling is more than expected and engine torque is above par. Will never sell mine!

Fun to drive. Sits well.
Electrical system.
This car is fun to drive. Handles well. Love the styling. One drawback is the electrical system is a little quirky. It is 90% Mercedes. Only the painted parts are Chrysler.
No 3rd wheel tag along
No spare just fix a flat. Lol
Issues are minimal and diy friendly, parts are cheap just a little hard to find. The car is so great I bought 2.
Fun to drive, easy handling sports car.
