Maxima vs Crossfire?
 

Anybody know who would win?

Have you guys seen the Crossfire commercial, it looks kinda cool.

What kind of engine does it have and what can we as Max owners expect as far as competition from this car?

This?

"The Chrysler Crossfire is powered by a supercharged 2.7-liter, 275 horsepower (205 kW), 270 lb.-ft. (366 Nom) V-6 engine coupled to a five-speed manual transmission. The custom independent short-and-long-arm front and rear suspension uses coil springs placed over the shock absorbers. The Crossfire is estimated to achieve 60 mph. (97 kph) in 5.8 seconds and a top speed of 148 mph. (238 kph)."

Its a pretty nice looking ride except for Celine Dion all up in it
:D

That's what most people say about our Max but it still doesn't answer the question.

Damn, I know it'll beat a 2k, so according to the times you mentioned it should hand the 2k2/2k3 its' @$$ as well, I wonder what the 2k2/2k3 guys think about this.
Any takers or $hit talkers.

well, the supercharged version was for the show...they're now saying a normally aspirated 3.2 liter motor from the MB320 will find its place in the engine bay coupled to a '6' speed, not 5.

Since it isn't going to be supercharger and it's going to use that MB engine, will it still be able to hand the 2k2/2k3 it @$$?

ditto. i love it when max owners critique exterior styling, it's like sam cassell calling another dude fugly :)

That's why its called a FORUM, so others can express their views:bonk:

Thats an interesting comment .:rolleyes:

That car, I think, was designed to compete with the SLC 430, G35 Coupe, 350Z....
Notice how all of those cars look SIMILAR.

I DO like how it has 19's in the back and 18's in the front. It looks sharp, but I will keep my Max :D

wtf

This is the oldest thread i have EVER seen bumped..

I'm sure the crossfire is light, so who knows. google the 1/4 mi times.

6spd02 why are you waking up all these threads from the grave? lol

you ever read an old thread and not know it was old until you finished reading it.

crossfire is one ugly thing

It's slow. Bone stock 03 Z walks away from it no problem.

both would loose...... this is yet another dumb thread............................

5.5 maxima 6 speed would destroy the crossfire!
my brothers 2003 accord v6 6 speed with bolt ons put 2 cars on the supercharged one.
and a 5th gen maxima 5 speed vq35 with just intake & exhaust put 2-3 cars on his accord.
crossfire would get a nice hurtin'

my buddy has a 747 jet and wants to run...do you think my max stands a chance?

don't under estimate the maxima racecarz

:mrgone:

Why do I feel like half of this thread is run by 5 year olds? It tried to die in 03, let it go away.

Clearly the Maxima DESTROYS everything yo

Whaa, not tru buddy, stock for stock that 300C will show the 5.5 what it dreams about... not happening with the C..... go ahead, try it........ well lemme rephrase that line, the max could beat the R/T 300C.... definately not the SRT8

Hmmm, I'm in a fair mood this AM ... don't turn my mood upside down as the day goes by :ban2: . :mad:
