I got to drive one today.

Awesome car.....turns heads.

Only thing i didnt like about the convertible is it was around midday when i drove it so the sun is beating down. They would be better for afternoon and evening cruises. And also when pulling up the smell of rubber and engine wafts into the cabin and its not pleasant. But besides that, if I had the $$$ I would get the crossfire.

Also it was seqential auto but that was ok.

I'd rather get a Saab 9-3 Aero convertible, those things look nice... not sure how much they go for though.

The crossfire is built on the same platform and engine as the SLK Roadster. In my opinion the crossfire is way too out there, they went out on a limb with the styling, hence a love it or hate it opinion.
If I had to pick out of the 2 the Merc wins hands down, damn they are sexy

just becuase it is built on same platform/engine as SLK; doesn't mean squat...Crossfire handles nothing like the Merc
