I'm seeing a lot of Chrysler 200's on the road and I now know why
Not a car for me but I'm surprised seeing as many as I have until I saw the discounting.
Actually at the cost,I would think of one for a second car if I were in the market.
According to Edmunds...
Chrysler is practically giving the 200's away at 25% off sticker!

Price, of course, certainly doesn't hurt. But, unlike the case with the past mediocre 200s and Cirrus models, it is probably more than just price selling this latest version. The V6 version, especially, is a quite pleasant car to drive. It's a shame that Chrysler dropped the convertible...it would (likely) be selling, too.....though not necessarily in the winter like this.

If I were in the market for that class of car I would be all over the 200C. It looks much better, upscale and unique than any other car in its segment. The Accord is boring, the Altima is overdone and the Camry looks like it's trying too hard to be sporty (which it's not). The 200 looks classy, like it was cut from Audi cloth. (Maybe I'm biased.)

That can help translate into future sales, if the renter has a positive experience he might be more inclined to look at one for him or herself.

Try one yourself next time you rent (preferably with the V6...the four is not that impressive). It might not be the car for you, but, except (possibly) for the somewhat awkward shifter-****, I don't think you will be too disappointed, especially compared with past versions of this car.

I had this for a rental and was pleasantly surprised. And regarding the incentives - you will be surprised at the incentives Toyota has for the Camry. Plus Toyota is the new rental sales champ along with Nissan. Hordes of Camrys and Altimas at any rental lot.
15-20% of total Camry sales are to the rental fleets. Compared to about 1-2% for the Accord. Honda is doing a much better job at protecting their brand resale and image. Toyota with their rental and fleet sales no longer carries that brand image anymore and its resale especially the sedans are almost comparable to the domestics. Toyota SUV's and trucks are different though - inspite of their rental sales their resale is very good. But one thing I will say - no mainstream automaker can touch Toyota's reliability and that includes Honda.
If I was looking for a midsized used car and if the deal on the Chrysler 200 is great - I would advise to go for it. They are much improved compared to just a few years ago .

I really tried to like the 200 but there's still a part of the exterior that looks a bit 'melted' and generic/plastic-y. Besides that, Chrysler can't seem to get the V6/9 speed combo worked out. It was a nightmare in the Cherokee and still is in the 200 from what I've read.
