Thanks for the info, and of course the pic, but the Pacifica that I was in was devoid of ANY wood trim. The interior was a light blue, and the dash was done in blue plastic, again, the "plain-jane-ness" of that is what caught my attention. Evidently, there must be different trim packages available. Also, thanks for your input on the CrossFire's tire (or lack of) ammenities. Not having a spare in below-zero weather would certainly be a factor in buying one or not. |

| This interior is identical to that of my 300M. However, the 300M Special has no woodgrain, and instead has a sort of metal-mesh trim. I'm not 100% certain, but *think* the wood trim is actually wood-style plastic. | |

I think you are still talking about some other car. Or they lied to you and told you that it was a Pacifica. Pacificas don't come with blue interiors. But Honda Element does. I think it is very likely that you saw an Element. |

| The wood in the Pacifica is fake but not plastic. Rather, Chrysler uses an expensive process that alters some metal alloy that they use to look like wood. This process, however, is still cheaper than using real wood trim. | |

" but *think* the wood trim is actually wood-style plastic." you are half right , on regular 300M's they use fake wood , but if you order the luxury package the 300m comes with REAL wood on the dash . The Special uses carbon fiber looking dash inserts |

| Do you know what the latest production schedule for the 300C and Magnum is? Any news on either model too. | |
| Thanks for the clarification on the wood. I still wish they would use real wood, or no wood at all. Thus far, that's my only complaint about the vehicle. | |
|
The latest I have is production on the 300C begins mid-Janurary. This was taken from the Brampton CAW union website. |

| Hummm, I was told by my dealer the 2.7 would be offered on the new 300 (or perhaps he meant some version of the LX, who knows). Not that it really matters to me, I will most likely be getting mine with the 3.5 since the V8 model will probably be priced to high. Saw my first pic of the 300 in a different color and it still looks beautifull. I can't wait. | |

| The Concorde and Intrepid replacements and the Dodge Magnum will be getting the 2.7L engine. The 3.5L engine will under go a major over haul by the time the Concorde?, Intrepid?, and Magnum reach show rooms. | |
