2005 Chrysler Crossfire Limited Roadster 

NO RESERVE AUCTION

Like New 2005 Chrysler Crossfire Limited Roadster Sapphire Silver Blue Metallic. We are the ORIGINAL OWNERS and purchased it new of the dealer showroom in February of 2006. Car is absolutely gorgeous. This is the nicest one in the country. The car is driven only 3 months a year and has NEVER seen rain or snow. We keep it covered on a hoist in a hearted garage when it is not being driven. The car is MINT; there is no curb rash on the wheels, no scratches in the paint, and no oxidation to the headlights (common on Crossfire's). The interior shows as new with virtually no wear on the seats (bolsters commonly show a lot of wear), no rips or any tears. We have had seat covers on it since new. The carpet is Like new, as the car had all-weather floor mats installed since new. Even the Cup Holder that is commonly broken is in working order. The top is also in perfect condition, both mechanically and cosmetically. The car does have a pin-size nick above the door handle; it was there when we bought the car. There is also two very small nicks on the front bumper. basically two small rock chips. Please look at the pictures as I documented both of them. 99% of people will not notice them, but I am extremely picky about maintaining the condition of the car and I want to describe the car as accurately as possible.

The car has been maintained impeccably as my father is an ex-Mercedes-Benz Tech. and is familiar with these cars. The Oil was changed every June when the car was taken out for the summer. The car is in perfect mechanical condition, and has been extremely reliable. The only issue that we have had with the car was the valve cover gaskets had a slight leak. Chrysler replaced both the gaskets and cylinder head covers under warranty. The issue has NOT re-occured. I have all the paperwork for this repair. I also just put a new battery in it a week ago. Other than that, the car has been great. The tires have about 60% of tread left in the rear and about 70% in the front. 


For those that don't know much about the Crossfire, it is one of the nicest cars Chrysler ever made. This is mainly because the Crossfire is technically a Mercedes-Benz SLK. It shares the R170 platform with the SLK and has the Mercedes M112 3.2L V6 paired to a Getreg 6-Speed Manual. The car was Coach-built at the Karmann Factory in Germany. This is sure to be a future collector! 

Car comes with original Manual, both sets of keys, and all the paperwork. The Title is Clean and is in my name. This is a Private Party sale, and not a dealer. The only reason I am selling it is because we have three convertibles and just bought a new boat. We do not have time to enjoy everything! I tried to describe the car as accurately as possible, but there is a chance I missed something.  Please contact me if you have any questions. Please call/ text or message me. My # is 815-980-5932. Check out my feedback and buy with confidence!

*Item is for sale locally and I have the right to end the auction at anytime*

Mystery shoppers love Infiniti, hate Tesla

Tue, Jul 12 2016

Infiniti, followed by Lexus tied with Mercedes-Benz took the top two spots for best sales experience according to mystery shoppers from the latest Pied Piper Prospect Satisfaction Index, while EV manufacturer Tesla recorded the lowest overall score. Not surprisingly, premium brands dominated the top ranks. Including the three already mentioned, luxury brands occupied seven of the top ten spots and included Audi, BMW, Porsche, and the only American brand to crack the upper echelon, Cadillac. Toyota, Volkswagen, and Nissan rounded out the first ten positions. The news for domestic automakers isn't good. Aside from Caddy, the only other star-spangled automaker to score above the industry average is Chrysler. The rest of FCA, most of GM, and all of Ford fell below the line. But Pied Piper's mystery shoppers handed Tesla the biggest walloping – the company is ten full points below the next lowest brand, Volvo, and its score of 86 is 17 below the average of 103. It's baffling, considering the company's touted direct-sales model. "Tesla leaves me scratching my head," Fred O'Hagan, Pied Piper's president and CEO, told Wards Auto. "They own all of their stores, so you would think each one would be doing the same thing. But they're not. Tesla is consistent in its inconsistencies." O'Hagan added that there's a "huge variation" in Tesla's store-to-store effectiveness, and that in some cases, shoppers found showroom workers that acted more like "museum curators," Wards Auto reports. It might be popular to call Tesla the Apple of the car world, but based on Pied Piper's work, the brand has a long way to go to emulate the uniform shopping experience of an Apple Store. The news might be bad for Tesla, but even for the brands that scored below average, there's cause for celebration. Only Tesla and Mini lost points in this year's rankings, and only Mercedes and Lincoln held steady. Every other brand, including Infiniti, which topped the index for the first time, gained at least one point. The biggest improvements belong to Porsche, Land Rover, and Mitsubishi, which all jumped five points. Pied Piper's annual Prospect Satisfaction Index uses mystery shoppers – over 6,100 this year – from across the country to assess dealers and generate rankings from over 50 individual factors.

2014 Ram Power Wagon is bigger and badder than ever [w/video]

Wed, 09 Apr 2014



"The 2014 Ram Power Wagon fills a need for those who travel into extreme terrain for rescue or recreation." - Reid Bigland
More, more, more. That's the philosophy behind the latest Ram Power Wagon. The extra-brawny, Ram 2500-based pickup is back for 2014, and naturally, it's even more extreme than its predecessor.

Some Jeep Cherokees and Chrysler 200s to get standard stop-start in 2015

Wed, 25 Jun 2014

Automakers the world over are striving to find ways to make their models more efficient, and Chrysler has a solution for some versions of the 2015 Chrysler 200 and 2015 Jeep Cherokee (2014 model shown). The Tigershark 2.4-liter four-cylinder in the 200 and the 3.2-liter Pentastar V6 in the Cherokee are getting a slight boost later this year thanks to the addition of Chrysler's Engine Stop-Start system as standard equipment. The company predicts modest gains - a three-percent improvement in fuel economy and a three percent reduction in CO2 emissions with the new tech compared to without it. While it's not much, those who sit in traffic a lot may see a difference.
Chrysler's stop/start system uses a high-speed starter motor to restart the vehicle in a claimed a third of a second. It works by detecting when the vehicle comes to a stop and turning off the engine. A more powerful battery maintains all of the model's accessories while it sits. When the driver lets off the brake, the car starts up again to drive away. There is even a button in the cabin to turn the ESS off, if desired.
The Jeep will be the first to receive ESS in the third quarter of this year to coincide with the start of production of the 2015 model-year version. The 200 will follow in the fourth quarter as a rolling change in production.
