A little over 39K Crossfires have sold in the U.S. since its inception. Extrapolating from 2004 worldwide sales, close to 1/3 of Crossfires are sold outside the U.S. That would suggest that worldwide Crossfire sales are close to 57K units. Just under 70K Crossfire VINs exist, as reflected in Chrysler's recall system, including '06 models. So there should be around 13K Crossfires that have been produced that have not been sold. How many of them are in the U.S.? There's no way of telling, but I would guess 8 - 9K.

Worldwide, there are 6K Chrysler dealers, so on average each dealer would have two Crossfires. If there are still cars sitting at ports, the number at dealerships would be less. I used Chrysler's site to do a check of dealer inventories close to my zip code. The dealers had anywhere from 0 to 3 Crossfires, with an average somewhere between one and two vehicles each.

The good news is that inventories are shrinking, the bad news is that sales are too. Let's hope that the '07 production run is similar to that of '06 - around 10K.
