http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chrys...QQcmdZViewItem Probably a result of the fact that Canada is a higher tax country. Particularly on vehicles that come in from Europe. Even to the fact that on new vehicle purchases we pay $100 air conditioner tax, 6% GST, and in Ontario 8% PST, plus about $400 gas tax. If we buy used, from a private seller (not a dealership) we pay the 8% PST only. www.autotrader.ca has several Crossfires listed. |
Re: Canadian Crossfires
This is what I paid including taxes for mine out the door.
So his chances are very poor for one used. :confused: |
Re: Canadian Crossfires
I paid quite a lot for mine back in June...or maybe it was May? $52,000 plus the extra warranty plus the usual BS... mine is an '05 Coupe SRT-6 bought new. Although I probably overpaid, still love driving this car and still happy with the purchase.

Re: Canadian Crossfires
Hi Canadian X Fire Owners
I purchased a 2006 Black Convertible with Black Top, 2 Tone Leather Interior,5600 miles in Georgia for $24,000.00 seemed like a deal to me at the time ? Peter |
Re: Canadian Crossfires
Due to the rise of the Canadian dollar cars have dropped in price. I bought my 05 ltd last year for $33,000.00 and that was a deal. Now I can buy the same car for $25,000.00 depending on milage. So its good for those looking to buy but not so great for those of us who did.

Re: Canadian Crossfires
Do not buy a Crossfire in Canada. Import one from the US. I paid $13,500 two months ago for an 05 limited with 14000 miles.
Canada does not have much higher taxes than in the US. We are being ripped off. These cars may be made in Germany but they are considered US made. Just look at the VIN. There is no duty to import a XFire from the US. Making the mods on the bumpers and dt running lights will cost you about =$1500 though. |
Re: Canadian Crossfires
Did you have to change out the console to metric?

There is no bumper modification necessary, however, the standard tranmission comes with a headlight module that does not have the daytime running light feature. The automatic does and the dealer just logs in and changes the country code. A Chrysler switch is $585 parts only. Canadian Tire installed their generic $35.00 for 2 hours labour, total $243.00 The import process was a breeze. Bob D |

As to snowspeeder's question about converting the console to metric, it's not required as long as speedometer has both mph and km. Bob D 2005 Roadster Black, Cedar interior 6 Spd and loving it! |

I don't believe that change has been adopted as yet. The latest news, as far as I know is that the bumper conversion still has to be made and is the most complex and expensive of all for importation. |
