Here are some fun facts about the 2005 Chrysler Crossfire SRT-6 Coupe that make it one of the strangest and coolest performance cars of the 2000s:
It was basically a hidden Mercedes-AMG.
Underneath the Chrysler bodywork, the SRT-6 shared major components with the Mercedes-Benz SLK32 AMG, including its hand-built supercharged 3.2L V6 engine.
The engine made 330 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque.
That was huge performance for Chrysler in 2005, and it pushed the car to 0–60 mph in under 5 seconds.
It was the fastest Chrysler ever built at the time.
Chrysler advertised a top speed around 158 mph, which was wild for a small hatchback-looking coupe.
The car was assembled in Germany, not America.
The SRT-6 was rare: Only about 2,400–2,500 SRT-6 coupes were built, making them much rarer than standard Crossfires.
Production was handled by Karmann — the same company that built specialty European sports cars and convertibles.
It only came with an automatic transmission. Enthusiasts still complain Chrysler never offered a manual SRT-6, even though regular Crossfires could be had with a 6-speed manual.
It had staggered wheels straight from the factory.
The coupe used 18-inch front wheels and 19-inch rear wheels with Michelin Pilot Sports — serious hardware for the era.
The styling was extremely controversial.
Some people loved the art-deco-inspired shape, while others compared the rear end to “a dog squatting.” The design still sparks arguments today.
It became a cult collectible later on.
The Crossfire SRT-6 sold poorly when new because it was expensive, but enthusiasts now appreciate it as a weird DaimlerChrysler-era AMG sleeper.
It was one of the earliest SRT vehicles.
Before Hellcats and Trackhawks existed, the Crossfire SRT-6 helped establish Chrysler’s Street and Racing Technology performance brand.
The gauge cluster went to 200 mph.
Completely unnecessary, but very cool.
