I personally think that Chrysler is screwing their current customers by deflating the price of the Crossfire’s. Sure, I knew that by buying a new car in the first week they were on sale was a risk but didn't expect the manufacturer to accelerate its declining resale value. It's well known that companies like Lexus, known for retaining customer loyalty, don't radically redesign their cars in order to maintain the value of cars already on the road let alone dump them in the marketplace.

I wrote to Chrysler complaining about the "dumping". They responded with the following:

"If you look carefully on the overstock.com website, you will not find
any reference to DaimlerChrysler participation in the promotion. Any
number of wholesalers who bought more vehicles than they resold may be
the entity involved in partnership with overstock.com. Look for the
DaimlerChrysler name and logo on any promotional offers to determine
corporate involvement.

Thank you again for your email.

Sincerely,

William
Senior Staff Representative

My god, every press release and article written about this states that it's clearly an arrangement between Chrysler and Overstock. Without an agreement, the dealers wouldn't honor the Overstock certificates.

First they screw us, then they lie about it. I'm pissed and plan to raise heck about it.
