Default 2005 Chrysler 300 C...WOW!


WOW!

Chrysler is really kicking A-- with new styling! I just saw a new 2005 300 C and it is beautiful!


Since Daimler took over they've had the Viper, the Prowler, the PT Cruiser, and now the 300 C.

(Was there another one that I left out?)


It's chopped roof gives it a gangster look that reminds me of the old days, ...and with a rear drive V-8, I'll bet it drives better than it looks.

The first year of production for the Viper was 1992, which means that Daimler had nothing to do with it.Same goes for the Prowler, and I *think* the PT was already in the works when the 'merger' came about.I believe it was Bob Lutz who was responsible for the Viper and Prowler, if I'm not mistaken.
The new 300C and Magnum do look good.A dealer here is already advertising the 300C HEMI at $33k, and a 300 Touring with the HEMI (I thought you had ot get the C model to get it) at about $28k or so.
I want to see the Magnum up close as I think wagons rock.

I saw one this past week at my dealership--VERY SHARP! [8D] It was in Brillant Black--great color, especially if you like black--the paint has almost as much metal-flake as Seamist Green. The HEMI looks to be super......340HP and 17-25mpg on regular gas. [^]

OK, if you like something new with POWER try this. The new Dodge RAM. 22 inch wheels and a V10.

You also forgot the Pacifica... but it's easily forgettable.

When the Magnum debutes, you can just call the Pacifica an Edsel.

Think the Pacifica would be great if, in the next couple of years, they offered it with the HEMI and a 5-speed Autostick. [8D]

They caused sticker shock with the Pacifica. It's not bad, just hard to justify the cost. It's not bad...

Maybe there'll be a new cop car out there to replace Crown Vics? Also, taxis in NYC are 95% crown Vics (the other 5% are Honda Oddesseys).

The Speed channel showed a special on the 300 C. They were test driving it and how it handle the turns it was so cool, it has a hemi[?], and I forgot what it was called but a thing in ur engine that changes it from a V-8 to a V-4 by shutting down two of the pistons when they are not needed. This car is HOT!
