Sooner than I expected.

Tate Chrysler in Glen Burnie, MD (where I bought my car) has an add in today's (Saturday's) Annapolis paper. New Crossfires are advertised, with color picture (SSB) at a discount for $32,998.

They knocked $500 off MSRP when I bought mine a month ago. Since this is a dealer discount that Tate is eating, if other dealers have to follow suit, my guess is that Chrysler offering 0% financing on top of dealer discounts isn't far behind.

Too early for post mortums, but I think Chrysler has really blows this from a marketing perspective.

I was reading RX8 and 350Z boards just out of curiousity, just to check the banter to see if they're having the same kinds of discussions that are going on here.

There are a lot of posts on both...the RX8 guys are speculating about what they'll buy if they go with Mazda's buyback, the Z guys compare notes about their second choice if they had not bought the Z. In dozens of such posts, nobody even mentions seriously considering the Crossfire, most don't mention it at all as being on the list of compared cars.

Those that do totally dismiss it because a) it's a Chrysler, b) 215 hp and c) the Price, in no particular order.

Forget the dim radio display...that's the least of DC's worries with this car. They need to start letting people know this thing even exists!
