Default Did you notice?

Did you notice that the Canadian Chrysler website no longer shows the 2007 Crossfire, only the 2006?

Used the US Chrysler website to check the inventories of the 2006 Crossfires and found only four out of 21 dealers in the Twin Cities area had a 2006 Crossfire. The ones they had in stock were black Limited Coupes. So where are all the new 2006s?

I want to know the same thing! I've been waiting for mine to arrive for nearly 3 weeks now and the dealer still doesn't know for certain when it will be in! AHH.

They all hanging around in B-more with me. Xfire Capital. For all the xfires in the Baltimore ports here, I'm surprised I don't see more. Maybe seen 7 other ones in the time I had my car. All over and around B-more.

Eikon -

After we bought our "new" '05 at the end of December, the Chrysler dealer in Rochester indicated that they had no plans to take on any of the '06 model. Sorry to hear, but if the demand isn't there, I can see the wisdom of not taking on the inventory.

In Florida, the dealers can get the 2006 Crossfire (brought in at the port in Jacksonville). And they are stocking them.

And yes, the 2006 brochure does show all the models including the SRT-6.
It also shows a new color for the Limited: oyster gold crystal metallic.

I just noticed, the new Crossfire brochure also mentions a new model for 2006.
A base roadster available as a "Special Edition" in "inferno red." The special edition has the SRT-6 wheels with "metallic gray pockets" between the spokes. It still has the gray cloth seats. Only available with the automatic.

Even though '06's may be hard to come by in the Twin Cities area, Barnett Chrysler seems to collect low mileage '05's. They've got 20+ on the lot.

I go by Barnett everyday (they are not a five star dealer, so they are not listed in the Chrysler website searches), what they have are mostly roadsters - they look like program cars.

Barnett comes to MI and buys up Crossfires at the DaimlerChrysler auctions. Most of them were exec or employee cars.
I bought mine from them.

I wonder if they're collecting them for spring. The Crossfire roadster seems like the kind of car that sells well when the snow melts.

They are forced to collect them cause they don't know how to sell them OR they don't care.
