Below is the Email response I got from Chrysler Canada about importing a Beijing Jeep and related parts, I thought I would share this with you to see what you think, or if anyone wants to look into this furthur. I emailed them about the new Liberty and why they should not have cancelled the XJ platform, here is what Chrysler wrote to me, and my original email at the bottom.
Dear Mr. Corradetti:
We have received your email of April 8, 2004.

changes are in response to either customer demand or factors affecting
material availability. We appreciate your comments and have noted them
for future product development.

I was on the Beijing Jeep Web Site and came accross the Jeep 2500 Model,
During the 1984-2001 Model years, DC Former Chrysler Corp/AMC sold that
model under the Cherokee name plate.
I understand that the XJ is still
being produced overseas in China, with a very impressive updated front
end. I would have loved to see that improvement made to our Jeep
Cherokee.
before DC cancellation of that platform here in the NorthAmerican
Market.
I would like to ask DC on the implecations of ordering a front
clip for my Cherokee, what is the contact for the reps in China, and how
to
go about ordering parts for mine?
I would like to also say that the XJ
is a very well liked product that had staying power in a very volitile
market, here in North America, its is the only American Product that
could
compete for 2 decades on a unchanged 1980's technology, I would very
much
like to import one, but for now would like just to get the front clip
(Hood, front fenders, Grill, Lights bumper, hardware etc...) I am sure
that if DC brought a couple over here for veiwing at dealerships, they
would be pleasntly surprised at the positive response that update would
have made.
Thanks for your time, Jeff Corradetti
