So I came out from lunch to this scene. My ND surrounded by SRT Chrysler Crossfires. There were about 10 of them coupes and convertibles.

There is a dealer in my town; Treadway Used Cars, that has 10-15 at all times. Crazy to see Them all together like that.

Seems like I have seen one or two that were stick shift cars, not a guru on them.

Not all Crossfires are SRTs. The SRTs have AMG-like bits on them making them faster and all are automatics. 

Regular Crossfires were offered in auto or manual.

I was briefly in Tiffin, OH today. As I passed Coppus Motors there was a Crossfire there in customer parking 

I can't think of a more qualified place to service a Crossfire. There can't be many Chrysler and Mercedes dealerships in the nation.  And, not like just the same owner, I'm talking about a Chrysler dealership and Mercedes dealership share one parking lot and one building in this small town dealership

That’s why Treadway specializes in them, Adam Treadway was the Mercedes trained specialist for that car from the time it was new.

Interesting.

Ive past Treadway before and it is a traditional, small business owner, used car lot but it does have an odd selection of many Crossfires. It seems that most of them just sit there. 

Now that you say he was a specialist, he probably buys them cheap with issues and then knows how to fix the issues.

SLK32 AMG. Same powerplant but it's the R170 platform.
