Therefore, if chrysler wants to compete with any car manufacturer, they shouldn't place a higher % premium on a crossfire when a car such as the 6 series only has a 10% premium on a $70,000 car. I would be very surprised and angry if the Crossfire Roadster was above $39,000.
Well let's see, the 35k for the hardtop is selling for $30k, so that should make fair value on a convertible somewhere around $34k -- not bad. I would consider a hard top Crossfire some day, but the premium gas, especially in Califronia, is expensive. I like to drive for fun, and not have to watch the dollars go for premium gas. - Loren
