Will the Crossfire last?
I have been looking at Crossfires for months hoping to buy one someday. I think they are an innovation in style, but the price and some concerns about rear and side window visibility have made me cautious.
Apparently, most consumers feel the same since sales of Crossfires have not taken off -- at least in my area (SW Missouri). There are 3-4 Chrysler dealers in the area that have had several Crossfires sitting on their lots for around 7 months now. They are not selling and the dealers are NOT bringing in any new '05 models. I even talked to a Chrysler salesman friend who said his boss is practically giving away a SRT coupe just to get it off the lot.
Now my caution has increased. Will the Crossfire end up being dropped by Chrysler in a few years due to poor sales? Something is terribly wrong and I am curious what Chrysler is thinking about it. In contrast, the new 300 model is selling like hotcakes and I see them everywhere now.
