These cars are average.
No, these cars are undervalued. A small two seater has a very small market, because it will suit the needs of a very small number of car shoppers. It's a niche vehicle. If someone has 2 kids or more than one friend and needs a set of wheels to get them around, a Camry, Accord, Taurus, Grand Am, Altima, etc. will do, not a Crossfire or any other tiny two-seater, no matter how cool it is. My Xfire is my daily driver. If I had any kids, I would not be a Crossfire owner. Dealers don't want to give you much because they know it will probably be a while before they sell it, because it won't meet the needs of most of the customers who visit the lot. Add to that the Chrysler brand has taken such a beating, it's practically synonymous with failure in the mind of the public.
