The 2005 Chrysler Crossfire Coupe Limited stands as a remarkable example of the unique collaboration between Chrysler and Daimler-Benz, offering a blend of American design flair and German engineering prowess. Based on the Mercedes SLK platform, this Crossfire is not just a car; it's a statement on wheels.
The bold, distinctive styling, characterised by its fastback design and staggered wheel setup, makes it a head-turner, while the 3.2-liter V6 engine provides exhilarating performance matched with the tactile feedback of a 6-speed manual gearbox. Driving this car is a visceral experience, combining the smooth, responsive power delivery of its V6 with the precise handling and agility afforded by its renowned chassis.
Ownership of this Crossfire Coupe Limited means enjoying a vehicle that marries the exclusivity and performance of a sports car with the practicality and comfort of a daily driver. The interior, finished in black leather, offers luxury and refinement, while the car's low mileage and exceptional condition speak to a well cared for existence.
This car appeals not only to enthusiasts looking for a distinctive and capable sports coupe but also to collectors who appreciate the unique place this model holds in automotive history. It represents a fascinating chapter in the story of Chrysler and Mercedes-Benz, making it a must-have for those who value both performance and provenance.

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
