Chrysler Crossfire Coupe (2003-2008)

Lots of fun with the X factor to spare – We have had our black convertible for around 18 months and every time I sit in it I smile. It is the most fun I have had on the road . It looks great and it handles like a dream. My wife compares it to driving a go kart with the way it holds the road and being so low to the ground. I don't really need a high performance car but if required when you sink the slipper it moves quick enough for me. I believe that the SRT6 version can be a handful with 330 hp and only 1500 kg kerb weight. The 3.2 V6 215 HP that ours has is plenty to suit our needs.

The Tiptronic transmission allows you to manually move through the gears if you want to give it a workout.

The styling is almost art deco and to my untrained eye has aged well. Many people find it hard to believe that it is almost ten years old as the styling is ageless.

With a claimed top speed of 250 kph (155 mph) (electronically limited) and 0-100 kph in 6.4 sec it goes OK
