The Crossfire is 100% a Mercedes R170 SLK320 assembled by Karmann. That manual trans is the same as a manual TJ Jeep Wrangler of the same model year.

They're... fine. This build may have improved the car.

Nothing like a good truck transmission in your sports car!

My mom has one (the Crossfire, not the Jeep) and first is truly good for about 4.5 mph. ROCK CRAWL ALL THE THINGS

OK, now you have me thinking, could a manual Crossfire be the ultimate battle car build? Sure, parts might be hard to find, and sure, there is an open diff in the back and no power to the front, but can you imagine an ulglier, more ungainly off road vehicle?
