Chrysler’s Crossfire is a rather underrated sports car from the iconic American auto brand. That’s because it shares quite a few elements with the R170 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class roadster. This quirky car came about during the DaimlerChrysler era, over 76,000 Crossfires were made between 2003 and 2007. Interestingly, the car was built in Germany, by the Karmann coachbuilding company of Osnabruck. Today, we have a 2006 Chrysler Crossfire from Canandaigua, New York in our inventory. This lovely example is of the convertible variant, and has travelled a scant 39,921 miles so far.
Wearing a smart black suit, this 2006 Chrysler Crossfire showcases its classically American design which doesn’t give away anything about its Germanic skeleton. Designed as a concept by Eric Stoddard and refined for mass production by Andrew Dyson, the Crossfire features neo-classical styling that includes cues from curvaceous American automobiles of yesteryear, while combining these with modern elements such as large silver alloy wheels and projector headlamps. Meanwhile, the car’s black canvas top is power-operated for ease of use. Oh, and there’s an electronic rear wing that automatically deploys at speed, but can also be manually operated. The two-seat passenger cabin of this 2006 Chrysler Crossfire is where the Mercedes-Benz connection becomes clear, albeit if you know about Mercedes-Benzes from that era. The gauge cluster, for example, is identical to that of the R170 SL-Class, but uses different fonts that are more in line with Chrysler. The center console design and climate controls are also Mercedes-Benz but adorned in a pleasing shade of silver, and, once again, suitably changed in appearance to match Chrysler’s overall period design ethos. We note that this car has received an aftermarket JVC head unit with CD playback, AUX input and a USB port. Power seats are standard, with heating, and cruise control is present too. As for cargo space, it’s admittedly tight due to the need for roof stowage space, but you can still manage if you pack smartly.
This 2006 Chrysler Crossfire uses a 3.2-liter naturally aspirated Mercedes-Benz V6. This is great because the engine is known for its refined power delivery and overall smoothness. Rated at 215hp and 229lb-ft, it’s not slow, either. Rear-wheel drive is standard, and this particular Crossfire gets the 5G-TRONIC 5-speed automatic transmission, making it easier to drive for those who don’t know or understand the use of a manual transmission.

What happens when auto designers are given a free hand to reimagine something modern with retro styling cues? The Plymouth Prowler, later known as the Chrysler Prowler is one fine example. Produced between 1997 and 2002, over 11,700 units found homes during this time. So what is the Prowler? Well, officially, it’s a two-door roadster-style sports car. But visually, we can consider it a factory-built hot rod. It’s one of those rare instances where something that looks like a custom is actually a production model. Today, we have a 2001 Chrysler Prowler for sale from Tacoma, Washington. It’s a truly rare example because there’s only 2,589 miles on its odometer. Thus, it’s a definitive future classic and a worthy investment too.
Chrysler’s famous 300 is a midsize luxury car that was made across two generations, between 2005 and 2023. The 300 aimed to capture some of that old-school muscle sedan goodness, albeit with modern styling, tech and comforts. Today, we have a first-generation 2006 Chrysler 300 SRT-8 for sale from Lansing, Michigan. This 63,888-mile car is actually more sophisticated than you might think, because it has some German DNA in it. In fact, the platform on which the first-generation Chrysler 300 sits upon is shared with, among other models, the Mercedes-Benz W211 E-Class. The car also features other Mercedes-Benz elements, such as the gearbox, some engines, and electronics. But this particular car’s engine is all-American, a stonking 6.1-liter V8. With two keys included in the sale, this rear-wheel drive beast is the perfect muscle car for those seeking an old-school driving experience, but not willing to give up too many modern amenities.
The Chrysler Saratoga, with its name inspired by the famed Saratoga Springs, has been a recurring presence in Chrysler's lineup since its introduction in 1949. This 1951 model, hailing from the nameplate's third iteration, showcases the timeless appeal of the Saratoga as either a sedan or coupe. The featured sedan variant, boasting just under 51,000 miles, has benefited from numerous new parts, ensuring its classic charm is matched by reliable performance.
What have we got here? Is it KITT, then? Well, not quite. It’s the exact model of Shelby Mustang used for the 2008 reboot of Knight Rider – the GT500KR. Contrary to belief, KR actually means King of the Road. It’s a term that pays homage to the original 1968 GT500KR, a fearsome, Cobra Jet toting machine. Today’s 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR features a supercharged Modular V8 under the hood to really get your pulse racing. In case that isn’t enough, this 1,400-mile machine from Iowa also has the Shaker 1000 audio system, Shelby GT500KR forged wheels and even a carbon fiber rear spoiler and front splitter. You’d better not waste any time, then. Only 1,712 units were made, by the way.
The Pontiac GTO, one of the last hurrahs for the iconic Pontiac brand before General Motors shelved them in 2010. In the Sixties and Seventies, the GTO was a performance icon, one of the signature muscle cars of the time. However, by the Malaise Era, the GTO had to be retired…but only for a couple of decades. You see, in the Two Thousands, General Motors’ Australian subsidiary Holden was making a fine two-door sports car called the Monaro. It had all the requisite characteristics such as a 350ci V8 and suitably alluring looks. So, GM figured that they might as well import the Monaro into the United States, make a few tweaks, and call it the GTO. So yes, this 2004 Pontiac GTO for sale in Conway, Arkansas actually started life in Adelaide, Australia before being shipped Stateside and sold through Pontiac. It’s a 6-speed manual car that’s received a Lingenfelter Performance Engineering tune, plus several nice upgrades. With just 55,500 miles on the clock and plenty of features to make it suitable for daily driving, this could be your modern muscle car fix right here.
By 2001, the fourth-generation F-body platform was nearing the end of its production run, and cars like this represented the final chapter of Pontiac’s classic rear-wheel-drive muscle era. This 2001 Pontiac Firebird Formula Coupe comes equipped with the desirable WS6 Ram Air Performance & Handling Package and shows under 13,000 miles, placing it in exceptionally preserved territory for a 25-year-old performance car. With its aggressive Trans Am appearance conversion, functional Ram Air hood, and legendary LS1 powerplant, this example delivers the raw, analog driving experience enthusiasts crave—without modern electronic interference. Low-mileage LS1 cars are becoming increasingly difficult to find in this condition, making this one particularly appealing to collectors and drivers alike.
