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*

Catching up with Chrysler's EV catch-up plan

Tue, Sep 16 2014

At your home or office? Those are the key words for how Chrysler and its Fiat affiliate want to narrow the plug-in vehicle sales gap between themselves and more plug-in-centric companies like Nissan and Ford, according Wards Auto. When the gap will narrow is anyone's guess. The US automaker, long a laggard in electric-powertrain development, is working on an wireless, inductive charging system with Qualcomm and which could spur sales of plug-in vehicles for personal use. A wireless system would allow for hands-free charging for vehicles like the Fiat 500e, the company's only plug-in vehicle being sold to the public in the US as well as a plug-in hybrid minivan that's in the works for 2016. On the business front, Chrysler is working with nonprofit NextEnergy on developing a reverse-power-flow system. That would allow for fleet-owning businesses to draw power from their plug-in vehicles' batteries during mid-day peak-energy times, when electricity rates are highest. Chrysler and NextEnergy ran a one-month test of a reverse-power-flow system with four Fiat 500e vehicles last year, and the companies found that they could cut power usage enough to save $1,200. Chrysler extrapolated those numbers to estimate that such a system with just a dozen plug-in vehicles could save a company as much as $27,000 a year. Get more details over at Wards Auto.

Ferrari to be spun off from Fiat Chrysler

Wed, 29 Oct 2014

The recently merged Fiat Chrysler Automobiles empire has ambitious plans for growth, and it's going to need some big bucks in its coffers in order to enact them. Part of that cash injection is coming from the floating of its IPO on the New York Stock Exchange, but now FCA has announced a further capital campaign to be based on the enormous asset that is Ferrari.
FCA's board of directors has just approved the separation of Ferrari from the rest of the group as a separate entity. Once that separation is complete, Ferrari will put 10 percent of its shares on the stock market "in the United States and possibly a European exchange" as well.
This isn't the first time that the idea of a Ferrari IPO has been raised. Sergio Marchionne, chief executive of Chrysler, Fiat and Ferrari (pictured above), first raised the idea four years ago. Former Ferrari chairman Luca di Montezemolo nixed the idea, but now that he's been discharged, it appears there's nothing to get in the way of Marchionne's desires.

Here's what the UAW will be angling for in next year's contract negotiations

Mon, Dec 15 2014

The United Auto Workers union is about to enter a new round of negotiations with the Detroit Three automakers, and this time, the focus is on the end of the two-tier wage system. Introduced in 2007, the two-tier wage system was enacted to allow General Motors, Ford and Chrysler to categorize its hourly employees under two categories: Tier 1 for veteran employees with full rights and benefits, and Tier 2 for short-term or entry-level employees compensated under a different schedule. The idea was that the system would permit the automakers to invest more in their plants and hire new employees as part of their respective recovery plans without being saddled with all the costs associated with hiring full-time employees. Now that the automakers are (more or less) back on their proverbial feet, however, the UAW wants to see an end to the two-tier system, and will likely make that a center-point of its negotiations next year to replace the current arrangement that is scheduled to end in September 2015. Not all members of the UAW will necessarily be interested in ending the two-tier system, however. According to The Detroit News, some Tier 1 workers may be more interested in negotiating a raise in their hourly rate – something which they haven't received in almost a decade. Tier 2 workers, meanwhile, may be more motivated to keep the tiered system in place, as their arrangement includes provisions for profit-sharing payments that have seen the automakers pay out billions to so-called short-term employees in lump-sum payments. Reconciling the two competing demands from two categories of union members and presenting a united front in negotiations may prove the biggest challenge for the UAW's new president, Dennis Williams. And with the right to strike – something which was suspended during the last round of negotiations in 2011 – the union has a bigger bargaining chip in its pocket.
