Pardon my ignorance, but this is only bad for the dealers. Quite frankly it sounds damn good for the bloke with money in his wallet. (BARGAINING TIME)
Lets face it, the second car does not have a value of one dollar.

yeah BUT, the thing is the sticker price of the new car is like 40k and u cant negotiate on that.

whereas if u went to buy the car the normal method you could get it for about.. 26k or something (according to the american forum members) and the PT cruiser isint worth more than 10k.

meaning that you are still spending 4k extra when u get the 1 dollar deal


its a smart marketing ploy to suck in the unsuspecting and uneducated

.....$63 000 list price (i.e. bottom line for the dealer). Was $100 000+ last week.

That's a lot of car for a little price and remember the Aussie dollar will make any car with imported parts more expensive next year.
