They would sell more.
I like my Crossfire too. But Chrysler is quite aware that they have pricing issues.
"Pricing is an issue, if you look at what else is out there in the market today in that segment," Eberhardt said.
My pet dog is a beautiful mutt. People always comment on how pretty she is. I once even tried to... well never mind. But the point is even though she's very attractive and I am really fond of her, it doesn't mean anyone else wants to own her. She wouldn't meet the needs of most other people though most everyone agrees she's a beauty. Likewise, every mini van owner is going to look at the Crossfire and think it's beautiful. But that doesn't translate into a sale.
Has anyone noticed how frequently Crossfire Convertibles are appearing on "The Price is Right" game show? (I don't watch the show but retired family members do). I was informed that each time the car is part of one of the showcases, the contestant is bidding less than $30K for the entire showcase. The result is that they can't even give them away on a game show, LOL.
The bottom line is that supply is much greater than demand.
