Designed by Eric Stoddard and Andrew Dyson the Crossfire is built on the Mercedes R170 platform and shares 80% of its components with Mercedes R170 SLK230. With Chrysler responsible for the exterior and interior styling. The engine bay is virtually identical to that of the Mercedes SLK320 on their R170 platform. The wheelbase and track are also identical to that of the Mercedes SLK320 along with the seats, dash board, control panel and instruments. Sales of the Crossfire fell well short of expectation and resulted in the car being listed on Overstock.com to clear out inventory. Very few Crossfires were imported to the United States and Mexico for 2006 (and almost all of these were roadsters). In the standard version the power is supplied by a 3.2 litre V6 18 valve SOHC engine produces 215bhp and is mated to a 6 speed manual or 5 speed automatic gearbox. The huigh performance version, the SRT-6 (Street Racing Technology) also has a V6 engine displacement of 3199cc Supercharged and deliving 330bhp. Available as both a Convertible and Coupe the SRT-6 also has specific features included suspension and brake modifications, a front fascia air dam and a fixed vs. retractable rear spoiler. The Crossfire SRT-6 model used the same drive-train, suspension, and braking components as those used on the Mercedes-Benz SLK 32 AMG.
