slaps76 - One day it will be of great value... give it 10-15 years, and if we still got gasoline, you watch this little car will be worth every dime you paid for it. Do you recall the Sunbeam Tiger?


By all means tell me of an American brand automobile (being produced in this time frame) that will be more of a collectable then this Crossfire if Chrysler drops the line.


Since June 1, General Motors Corp. has been offering customers employee discounts for many of its 2005 automobiles. Ford is upside down, and can't give cars away. Every major car builder in the United States is on the skids, so you could say "They weren't selling these cars anyway." about many different models. The biggest problem with this car (and for resale in 10-15 years it is a plus) is when these young folks get ready to go out to eat, or to a movie, the wife says "OK now that we're both loaded up, where are we going to put little junior?"... and that my friend is the reason for the short fall.


So far there are only (roughly) 28,000 Crossfires on the road worldwide. Give that a few years and the numbers will drop due to abuse and miss-use. Then you got yourself something everybody else wants.

Hooah
