Default Re: Crossfire Sales Are D.O.A.

I would like to say that it is not selling because the original pricing didn't meet the perception of quality. To say "...it is not selling, therefore no one wants it..." is a generality, although point taken. When price equals perception, the car will sell. This is true for most products.

My opinion is that low $20's for the non-SRT and low $30's for the SRT is about as low as it will go. They may drop a bit more, but the value perception and price at this point are about equal, and I believe we have achieved a short term bottom on pricing, new and used.

Time will tell and I hope that I don't have to eat my words (or in this case, my reply). Also, since I am emotionally tied to the product in question, my vision is most likely blurred. I hope not.

I guess it really doesn't matter since I love my Crossfire!
