Pierre who was trying to sell Challenger for $95k

Hey Mike, yeah I drove by Lynwwod Dodge on the way to Costco yesterday and wondered why all the cars had disappeared. They were the ones as you remember who wanted to sell a Black SRT8 for a little over MSRP. Never saw that sucker move and now it certainly has.

I think Town & Country has it now...LOL
Wonder where the $95k Bill Pierre special went?

RE: Dealers Closing
 

You"re saying Bill Pierre and BBC both closed up shop? Not good... anyone else up in the Seattle area??

RE: Dealers Closing
 

Do you think it was from poor sales and they closed up or did Chrysler close them

RE: Dealers Closing
 

Both!!

RE: Dealers Closing
 

Geeee.....I wonder if "Market Pricing" played a part (if even just a small one) in some of the dealerships going away......

RE: Dealers Closing
 

Were these places strictly Dodge dealers or Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep? If they were just Dodge dealers, I wouldn't worry about it too much. Chrysler said several months ago that they were going to consolidate dealerships to handle either Chrysler and Dodge or all three brands. I know one place in San Antonio, Gunn Dodge, suddenly closed up shop and another down the street a ways that had been Mission Chrysler/Jeep has now become Mission Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep.

Around here I would say it is 50/50 if they cover all 3 or just 2. Any new ones have been all 3. Also the bigger ones that had only sold 2 now have all 3. With alot of th3m going for 4 with KIA.

The one in my hometown closed, but they first opened in 2004 and I never thought for a second that they would stay in business to begin with. The town was barely large enough to justify a GM and Ford dealership, and I doubt that having that fancy new building built was really practical when the other dealerships had much smaller, more practical sizes for years and did fine with what they had.
