Re: limited vs not limited?
the base has no power seats no seat heater the shift ***** come in black, no sub woofers behind seat, no heated sidemirrors, i think no tire pressure sensor either, manual only, everything like the streaks on the side car, the door handles and little thingaroundthe windshield are black and not silver, i dont think it comes with an infinity sound system either, nofog lights, no cup holder, and a couple minor other things

So lets stop arguing about this since i dont want to stard any fueds in my first week on this forum.
So again sorry if i "hurt" someones feeling, and yeah maybe i should have thought it through before posing such a comment.

Wow, a stripped base model is a good way to save weight for sure. Too bad there wasn't a totally stripped base SRT-6, now that would be badass! 
Having an SRT-6 here in Florida makes the heated seats a waste, well maybe one or 2 days a year I may use it.

I am 6'3" and I the only Crossfires that I can sit in without my head touching the roof are the base models. The non electric seats sit lower and I think the non leather seats may be thinner. So that is the main reason I drive a base other than that I like both models.

Do not forget the Special Edition. I purchased a new SE roadster in Blaze red. It has SRT wheels, silver trim except for windsheild pillars(Thanks, I prefer black) I replaced cloth seat with leather/power/ heat($300LKQ) Installed wood grain dash, Windstrictor, Sprint booster, transparent bra and pressure caps....Performance is more than adquate, handling is excellent. I'll put maybe 3K a year on it(too many cars and bikes)...It will never see salt....It is the most beautiful car I have yet to see........

I picture a driver who can bearly get their fat *** into the car, removing the sun visors to save weight, to increase performance.
