ETROIT -- Chrysler Group posted an operating profit of $239 million in the third quarter and raised its outlook for the balance of the year in anticipation of stronger sales and improved operating performance.

The results, released today, marked the automaker's third straight operating profit. Chrysler's third-quarter net loss was $84 million, down from $172 million in the second quarter. It was Chrysler's smallest quarterly net loss since emerging from bankruptcy 17 months ago.

Revenues rose 5.2 percent to $11 billion during the July-September period.

I could then REJOICE and celebrate the fact that all 3 of my beloved Domestics are posting profits... looking to destroy the insanity of losses to the Foreign devil.

Good going Chrysler... GM.. and Ford... U are, even if the mainstream still has dumba***s in it promoting Toyota, Honda, Hyundai, and BMW.

Chrysler is posting profits now.. even before all the updated product gets released.

That holds true for both it and GM. Altho updating products does actually initially take away from profits... the are doing so at a rate that insures that each product's depreciated return comes faster than ever before. I will say again that their new cost structure, particularly with Labor in renegotiated cost savings from Suppliers is gonna pan out even more come next year. GM and Chrysler each has cut the cost of making a vehicle in the U.S. by $5,000. Peep that GM's fixed costs per vehicle will drop from $13,591 in 2009 to $8,165 for 2010 and to $6,726 by 2012.

Technically they lost $84 million. Better than Q2 though.

Challenger, IIRC, is supposed to end with the 2014 MY.

It would seem obvious that a Cuda needs Plymouth dealers.

I don't think that's such a good idea. It would basically be a continuation of this vehicle with a new name and only marginal visual differences. If the classic Plymouth brand made a comback, then it would need to sell as a Plymouth. Making a new car as the next generation of a current car isn't good for the long haul. If they did follow that direction, what would you recommend next? Would you make the next generation a Challenger again? Would you call it something else? This just pushes off the inevitable problem that Chrysler is going to face: the obvious fact that the current Challenger will eventually need some sort of redesign, and that design is probably not going to follow history.
