Chysler Discount

Anyone else hear that Chrysler will provide the same "employee discount"
for customers, that GM does if GM continues theirs thru next week? And do
you think it will apply to the 300C's?

Don't hold your breath maybe a rebate or two, Chrysler is in far better
shape the big two and continues to get new buyers.

Ahh, but the OP is correct in what he heard.
It was in my local paper yesterday morning, On CNN and can also be found
here

and many other places.

So, he may not be holding his breath too long.
Could be good news for me as I am about to replace my aging (95) Caravan.

 

Yep, all speculation at this point, I ani't from Missouri but show me any
way.

Chrysler made $2 billion last year, GM is losing a billion dollars a
quarter. GM has to pay people to buy their cars because they don't
have anything that anyone wants. Chrysler can't make 300Cs fast enough so
I wouldn't expect to see any incentives on it for at least another year.
Sebrings and Jeeps are another story, those vehicles aren't particularly
special so I would expect that they'll need to match GM's incentives on
those lines.

 

I wonder what an "employee discount" actually is at GM? Used to be at
Chrysler Hqs, and we could buy for factory cost (MLO -- material, labor and
overhead) plus $150-$200 paperwork & prep to the dealer who processed the
deal. That was 40-ish yrs ago (when we rolled out the original
Charger....). My guess is that the employee price has been "reinvented" and
is nothing other than dealler invoice for stock-on-hand (which isn't that
great a deal).

I think others are right in that Chrysler isn't desperate enough to have to
rig up such a promotion.

 

I test drove a charger a few weeks ago. The dealer called me and told me
for the 7/4 weekend all vehicles are invoice less 1% including the new
charger.

 

July 5th. No idea about the 300C. I would think not, but you never know.
