Its all about depreciation and markup.
1) The crossfire (theoretically) will not depreciate as bad as a Neon.
2) The crossfire, since based on a pre-existing platform, has quite a bit of markup (The SLK has already recooped the engineering and development costs for the crossfire). Therefore chrysler is willing to provide a large capital cost reduction (aka, reduce the sticker price for lease)
