Summary
• Like most we were shocked and impressed by Chrysler. Initially we questioned whether the 200 could hold its own against more traditional Luxury car manufactures; they proved us wrong. Hopefully, they can transition this momentum into community growth like BMW or Cadillac
• As shown by the demographics the majority of the audience is male and other than Lexus a minority are discussing these manufactures or models publically. This could be an opportunity.
