Chrysler Crossfire, Lexus SC430, or something else

[MattTheSkywalker]

Hi. I am retiring my Saturn and getting a new car. For those of you who have been here a while, you know the retirement of the "Silver Chariot" is a sad thing. But it is necessary at approx 160K miles.

I don't see a lot of cars i really like out there. I only like the Crossfire and the SC430

I looked at Aston Martins briefly, I may get one, but I am looking for a daily use vehicle. Amazingly, this city (Jacksonville) has a great British car mechanic. So I am down to these two. Which would you rather have? I have a Lexus GS 300, love it very much.

Also, any suggestions are welcomed, but I am not interested in

MB
BMW
Audi
Porsche
Corvette
Dodge Viper
350Z
Ferrari/Lamborghini etc (no good mechanics for those here, like the Aston Martin, too much stress to drive)
any SUV


Thanks.

Have you driven the Mazda RX8 ?
Low attention factor, reliable, fast and not everyone and their brother driving one.

Of your 2, I see you in the 430

I need my 626 to get me to 150K. I like the Lexus for no apparent reason.

A co-worker just got the new dogde station wagon, she loves it.
The crossfire looks great, but also pretty damn small.

i also think the crossfire is nice looking.

do you not like acuras? i think my pops is getting an RL soon.

Of the two you listed I would go with the Lexus. The crossfire seems like a weird mix of Mercedes and Chrysler parts. I get scared when car companies start mixing parts from their different lines.

g35 coupe?

g35's are very nice.


What about a 350z?

Unless it's the supercharged Crossfire, say nay. How these two cars are getting mentioned in the same breath.......I have no idea.

Under 35k = Infiniti G35 Coupe or Sedan (only because of the brands you have eliminated)

Over 35K = SC430 or the new GS when it hits.
