Dear God man, I respect opinions but don't delude yourself into thinking that anyone shares your sentiment regarding a Crossfire being a better looking car than the NSX concept... I'm going to go out on a limb and guess you are in the overwhelming minority with this opinion. "Classic flowing curves"? Not at all, it looks like a dog thats taking a shit.
I don't post much, but sometimes I feel like I just need to slap people back into reality here..I mean really.

And the rules don't allow you to steal material from tall flabby Englishmen with huge floppy jowls who can't even fit in a sports car let alone judge a beauty contest. However, as long as you've chosen to shamelessly stick your hand in that sticky, lint filled pocket, what sort of dog are we talking about? Greyhound or Basset Hound? Old or young? Male or female? Three legs or four?
The Crossfire is the only car that I ever thought looked dated the SECOND time I saw one. The first time it took me by surprise as it went past and I thought it looked cool, then the second time I got a better look and hated the lines on the hood and the lame chrysler grill.
Weren't they selling at a deep discount at the end of their run because nobody was buying?
I'm not knocking the car, and if you have an srt6, I think that's cool, especially if you enjoy the look of it. But it's not a car that most people find beautiful.

No dude they were selling at a steep discount from the day they were introduced because no one was gonna fork over $47,595 for a funky looking Chrysler in 2005 especially when they had no idea it was actually a Mercedes SLK32 AMG. Some cars sat on dealer lots for over a year before Chrysler bought up a big chunk of the inventory and sold them off at auction to move em off the books. Today the trend continues. The things are dirt cheap performance fun, unique looking, very rare, with a great story behind them.

I don't know why the Crossfire even came into the discussion. I'm not bagging on the car, but it's nowhere near as nice as the NSX concept nor is it remotely close in terms of class.
And while I do appreciate your enthusiasm and loyalty, I won't even engage with you in an educated comparison of aesthetics between the NSX concept and your Crossfire. Based on what I've read from you in the past few posts, I feel like it'd be as pointless as trying to teach a bathtub how to rhyme.

Ummmm.....I would be the opposite of Shallow Hal brainiac since I love the ugly duckling that the rest of tasteless clods are unable to appreciate. While you on the other hand care only about the flashy overwrought outer wrapper without looking for the inner beauty. That makes you Shallow Hal. Please read up on the concept of similes and metaphors and try again. Californians!
