Chrysler 200

The Chrysler 200 was a mid-size sedan sold across two generations from 2011 to 2017. The first generation was a significant update of the preceding Chrysler Sebring, while the second generation (2015-2017) was an all-new car based on a Fiat-derived platform. This later version was notable for its sleek styling, a rotary dial shifter, and the availability of a powerful 295 horsepower 3.6L Pentastar V6 and all-wheel drive, which were uncommon options in its class.

The 200 is not a traditional collector car; it was a high-volume model that suffered from massive depreciation and was discontinued early due to slow sales. Its primary appeal today is as a bargain on the used market. The top-spec 200S AWD V6 models, in particular, offer a surprising amount of performance and features for a very low cost of entry, making them an interesting choice for those seeking a modern and well-equipped daily driver on a budget.

Market values reflect the car's position as used transportation rather than a collectible. With average prices well under $5,000, the Chrysler 200 represents one of the cheapest ways to get into a relatively modern sedan. The low transaction prices and lack of enthusiast demand mean it's unlikely to appreciate, but it offers a lot of car for the money.

Prices range from about $1,000 for early or high-mileage examples to over $9,000 for late-model, low-mileage V6 variants.
