Just lose the high price tag and the tacky spoiler at the rear of the SRT6. People will come.

All the painted plastic silver in the dash makes it look like a cheap Korean car from the 90’s.

From what I read… it’s not really all that great of a car to put as high a price tag as they have on it… Plain and simple.

Lower the price and you may find some potential buyers. Not me though. It’s too ugly

Coupes tend to sell well in the first year offered, as this is a “must have the newest thing” segment of the market, more so than others. Subsequent years tend to see a drop-off in sales…but not as dramatic as Crossfire sales, which have plummeted and never were very strong to begin with.

Hey Chrysler, why don’t you go ahead and skip 2007 and 2008 too. Wow, all the cost of a Mercedes but without the cache and snob-appeal in a technologically dated package. What could go wrong?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Wait, I don’t care.

Jon.

P.S. way to go to make yet another car that doesn’t sell well, way to go American auto industry!

….and the Crossfire is over. They’ll be like those wierd hotrod things from Chrysler that were having birthdays at the new car lot.

Very few want a car that looks like some Pebble Beach/Amelia Island, one-off from the 30’s. Anyone who remembers cars from the 30’s had had their license taken when they entered the Home.

” …expensive Mercedes parts — the Sky and Solstice do fine without them.”

Eh-eh… it’s a little soooon! The earliest examples probably don’t have 2,000mi on them yet.

GM is prone to building in some bug that will taint them as cars: suitable only as birthday presents for 16yr olds. Hell, the first Boxsters had flaws and Corvettes were fast-crap for most of their model life. Take a look at the top fit for starters.
