Before I begin I would encourage all serious buyers to contact me directly at: 517-425-0129. Although this is a 7 day auction I reserve the right to end early. Wow! 1960 Chrysler New Yorker, 20' long and 4200 pounds of vintage Detroit steel. I've owned several classic cars over the years and this one is a first for me, as a matter of fact I think this is the first one of these I've ever seen. One of Chrysler's famous taglines was " The car of your life, for the time of your life!", and with the classic lines, giant fins and amazing amount of bright work, this probably was the car of your life in the early '60s. I've taken several pictures of the interesting features of this car, but to me the most amazing is the "AstraDome" 3D control center. This "bubble" houses all of the instruments, really a unique look. Of course, all controls are push button as well, not just the transmission but even the turn signals. Once again, I've owned some neat cars, but I think this one probably creates more interest and more double takes when cruising than any others I've had. Description as follows:
Mechanical:
Interior:
Exterior: To summarize: an extremely unique car, almost in the "one of a kind" category. Great addition to the collector or hobbyist or maybe you're just tired of the mainstream muscle cars and want to "dare to be different"! Please take the time to review all the pics and dont hesitate to call with further questions.517-425-0129. I also have contact with a reasonable shipping company and would be glad to assist.

Autoblog sell-it-yourself highlight: 2004 Chrysler Crossfire
Wed, Apr 19 2017Chrysler's Crossfire was the most fortuitous product of the Chrysler and Daimler-Benz merger when it launched, but also the most tormented. Clothed in Chrysler sheetmetal, the Crossfire sat atop a Mercedes platform and was propelled by an M-B drivetrain. The upscale vibe was obvious, while its outlier status on a Chrysler showroom dominated by minivans, was preordained. As Autoblog reported in May 2006, "production of the Crossfire [fell] from a peak of 35,700 in 2003 to just 12,500 last year. Introduced in 2003, the Crossfire managed about 28,000 sales in 2004, but less than 10,000 in 2005. Chrysler was so desperate to move Crossfires in late 2005 that it even engaged in a marketing stunt when it attempted to sell units on Overstock.com." Most specialized two-seaters (or 2+2 coupes) invariably run into marketing reality; once the novelty wears off, there is little sustained support for a small, impractical vehicle in modern America. Conversely, if looking for a recreational vehicle with a possible upside as an investment, you'll be hard pressed to find a more accessible example than the Crossfire. Our for-sale example, located in Randleman, NC, looks to be well maintained and has the preferred manual transmission. There are few credible guides for evaluating the price, but the $3,750 ask falls in line with a decent Miata of the same vintage and mileage. A buyer should remember that the Mercedes-sourced drivetrain of this era can be a financial swamp, but with a clean Carfax and pre-purchase inspection, Chrysler's Crossfire can provide real driving enjoyment.
