Going, Going, GONE!
There are getting to be fewer and fewer Crossfires listed for sale and the prices seem going up a bit or are at least stable. There are very few listed on Ebay anymore and Cars.com only had 6 within 40 miles of me. There used to be 20 or more every week. I'm so glad I got mine with less than 5K, when I did (2006), and I have taken good care of her. I hope to keep it forever or until I die, whichever comes first !!!!!
Same here. Cars.com currently shows only 10 Crossfires for sale in the Twin Cities, MN area. Local inventory seemed to drop off very rapidly a few weeks ago. I wonder if this is due to local dealers auctioning their stock to distant dealers or if it represents retail sales to real people. I also wonder if the Chrysler dealer closings are partly responsible.
Same here. Ebay has 22 xfires within a 100 mile radius of Dallas/Ft. Worth. The dealer where I got the black SRT-6 roadster has one like it with twice the miles and $2k less than I paid a year ago.
Let's hope this is a trend!
It would be very nice to see prices for our cars start to creep up as opposed to falling into a black hole like they have the past few years.

There is likely several dynamics at work. One of the little known issues with the dealership closing was the transfer of autos to the dealerships remaining open and the debt of those autos. From what I was able to ascertain, there was a deal worked out where the outstanding debt could be transferred (ie if a dealership owed 20k to the factory for a car it could be transferred to the gaining dealership) but that deal only covered 2009 model year vehicles. As a result, all the dealerships were REAL motivated to liquidate their existing "older" stock. There was a dealership here locally that had something like 14 xfires, and they were letting the 2008 versions go for around 28K for the roadsters and less for the coupes. This likely got the price point down to where they got sucked up. There are only a couple left here locally. I ended up getting mine from the east coast and having it shipped to get the spouse the color combination she wanted. The good news should be that now that the stock is basically gone, I would expect the price to stabilize because they will be harder to find if someone really wants one.
Don't expect ours to ever be for sale, wife love the Xf more than she love me!
Just my nickles worth!

There are 28 on Autotrader within 300 miles of me. Only 3 are SRT6's at $19-$20k. Suprisingly these 3 cars are within 25 miles of me. Good thing I cant afford another car!
Now that there are no more coming to market and the fact most current owners love them and intend to keep them, there are bound to be fewer and fewer available for the folks just now realizing what a deal they missed out on. There are only so many to go around, especially the SRT 6.
