Chrysler Announces Possible Sale of Dodge Viper Line, We Feel Faintly Nauseous

Chrysler LLC reported this morning that it might consider selling off the Dodge Viper. As quoted by Auto News, Chrysler explained that “This strategic review comes as the Company focuses on enhancing its core business and leveraging its assets.” Or, in other words, Chrysler LLC is up a fiduciary creek without a sales profit paddle. Obviously recognizing the similarity to GM’s earlier despicable cut-and-run behavior with their HUMMER line, Chrysler CEO Bob Nardelli was quick to explain the new decision as merely an exploration of options. “We have been approached by third parties who are interested in exploring future possibilities for Viper,” he said. Nardelli further explained that while Chrysler as agreed to listen to what the aforementioned “third parties” have to say, they “…will do so keeping in mind the best interests of those who have shown tremendous support for the vehicle - including employees, suppliers, dealers, and a worldwide group of loyal Viper owners and enthusiasts.”

10 to 1 the “third parties” are foreign, and double or nothing it’s China.

Big Three Going With Luxury Alcantara Fabric in 2007

Alcantara

Chrysler, Cadillac and Mercury will start offering suede-like Alcantara leather in certain sports edition models next year. Alcantara is best known for its use in performance cars like the BMW M3 because it holds drivers in their seats better than standard leather. It’s easy for us to guess that Chrysler’s SRT models and Cadillac’s V series will see Alcantara, but we’re mystified at which Mercury interior will get such treatment. Perhaps it will be one of its SUVs, like the Mountaineer. That seems like a bit of a waste to us.
