| then I guess there's no point in you following this board any longer. | |

Indy, You do seem to have a pattern of telling people who disagree with you to get lost, subtly or not so subtly. I've noticed that on the 300M board too. These boards are here for discussion of a subject, good, bad, or indifferent. If you can't deal with that then perhaps you should consider seeking out a board that better fits your beliefs. |

haha, yes, well, I usually try not to offend people on boards. Not too much, at least. I am very excited about the return of the HEMI. I was browsing auto review this morning, and I read one on the 300M. They wished it had an engine like the ol' V8 HEMI, they said, although the current engine was good enough. Well, looks like they will get their wish. As for the styling, I maintain that the brick car looks classy and would be a great New Yorker, but I personally would likely want a sleeker LX...called the 300N. Now, I don't know what they will actually build. The plan a while ago was to build both the "brick" and the 300M-like N. however, I don't know now whether there will be a sleek version or not. |

Where I'm coming from is that there are a lot of current customers that won't embrace this style (me being one). If DC expects to increase market share they won't get there trading customer bases. They'll get there by keeping the customers they have and adding to that. So that raises the fair question of what, if anything, are they going to offer that appeals to the existing base. I happen to own two DC products, a 300M and Grand Cherokee and I really like both these vehicles. But so far I'm not seeing anything in the LX line that I can plunk my money down for and that's disappointing to me as a current customer. Maybe something will come out of New York. Brampton Plant employees who are members here have said there will be 7 LX based products. We've seen 2 1/2 (Magnum, Airflite, 1/2 of an unnamed LX) so far so there is more yet to come. Perhaps some of those will go a different way. |

| I could care less whether or not you agree with me that the upcoming LX "future vehicles" will be exciting, class leading vehicles. I do assume that anyone visiting a "future vehicles" board would have some enthusiasm for the vehicle. You simply stated that you had seen enough to be turned off so I'm simply encouraging you to find a board you can be enthusiastic about. At least you own DC which is more than can be said about the many trolls looking to smear DC in any public forum. Is it just DC that attracts the naysayers? I really don't know what happens on the Honda boards, because I could care less, so, guess what, I don't go there. | |

Your view on the point of these boards is narrow to say the least. Did it ever occurred to you that DC observers might just be checking around here to get feedback, good and bad, from customers to assess the customer mood and get a reality check? Guess what, the world isn't all sweetness and light. Unless customers express an honest opinion about things like style, quality, and content we won't get what we seek. The 300N is the follow on to the 300M I drive today. So I'm qualified to voice a commentary on the 300N - which happens to be thumbs down - if the LX we've seen represents the 300N. If you don't care about my opinion why do you feel compelled to comment? |

| Though everybody is entitled to own opinion, regardless of how extreme it is, we should be courteous enough to everybody on the forum. Opposite opinions are good, since they might open certain sides of reality a person for whatever reason didn't pay appropriate attention to. This way, we should be open - and helpfull to each other - 'cuz, as per Wisnot Churchill, voice is raised only when there is lack of arguments. And I guess, everybody can see a lot of toughness shown every day on TV. All I am saying, is give peace a chance. | |

Looks similar to the Dodge Magnum and Chrysler Crossfire. Rumour has it that this will be at the New York International Auto Show http://www.thehollywoodextra.com/chrysler/chrysler.html#300 |

In the immortal words of Jar Jar Binks: Pee yousa! Exciting? Class leading? I think similar words were used to describe the Edsel. Lutz would have taken one look at this and said: What else have you got to show me? It would never have seen the light of day on his watch. Tom Gale is either laughing his ass off or crying, I'm not sure which. |

| I just saw the Chrysler 300 concept for the first time today and in my opinion, its stunning. A complete departure for sure from my 2001 LHS in every way. This car is beautiful. Chrysler has a created an elegant and sophisticated entry into the near lux category. As God is my witness, there will be one in my driveway. | |
