New Chryslers for firesale prices!...50% off?

http://www.chrisnikel.com/new-invent...=clear&start=0

Out in Broken Arrow Oklahoma, it looks like they bought some inventory at 50cents on the dollar.

Only if these deals were available here on this side of the border..

Cheers,

rcowboy

Hahaha that sounds about right. Anyone paying more than 50% of MSRP on a Chrysler product must be retarded!

Pretty bad excuse but my passport is expired and my work schedule is pretty hectic nowadays

In a perfect world, i'd rather someone do the work for me

Personally, i find that the SRT spoiler improves the rear angle quite a bit. Would seem like quite the task to put onto a regular crossfire.

Although for many the rear end is fairly ghastly to begin with and made worse by a clashing rear bumper, im starting to think its really not that bad.

you can save some big money still buying in the USA and bringing the car over. You just have to check to se if the warranty will still be valid up her. My buddy just bought a new fully loaded Honda pilot and saved quite a bit. He made sure that his warranty would still be honoured up here before buying it.

Fail - there is definitely 100% no warranty on a US Honda in Canada. They may honour the warranty in the US though many people have had them cancelled in the US as well once they are registered in the Canada.

Most companies don't.

Nissan is lame. Bring a car across, Nissan Canada won't do warranty work, but Nissan USA won't either if you bring the car back across the line

they are not really 50% off. the cars are two years old. and that is the reason for the sale. besides crossfire has been discountinued for 2 years now.

The last thing on my mind is to go travel across the pond when i got stuff to sort out at home.

What am I supposed to do? Throw out a perfectly good base spoiler just because i think the SRT "whaletail" looks better? I got two people I know on the verge of living on the street

Honestly, I think I could have saved Chyrsler maybe a couple thousand dollars off if they took a different approach with the Crossfire. Sadly enough, it still wouldnt be enough to save this memorable piece of automobile history.
