You are in the Chrysler 300/300C/300C SRT-8 Forum. Your Hosts are pat & karens
| Does anyone have any idea why DC will only be selling the Chrysler 300C Touring, which appears to be kind of a little more upscale Dodge Magnum SRT-8, outside of North America? I mean, they're building the thing in N.A. And it isn't unusual for Chrysler to offer its own version of a Dodge product. Why not in this case? Personally I think the 300C Touring would compete much better against some of the import competition. I thought it was sharp. | |
| I don't own an "M", beespecial, but I always thought the styling of it was sweet. Not like all other cars, but a real head turner. I think the new DC lineup will be as impressive to you the more you see them. So many cars out there all look the same, it is nice to see something different. I think it was time for a change back to rwd too. With the technology today, it makes sense. Its not like the days when all you had was limited slip differential. | |
| There is supposed to be a 300C at the auto show starting next Saturday. I don't know if it will be the concept or pre-production model. In either case, I am anxious to see it. | |

| The 300C Touring will not be sold in America the demand for expensive wagons in America pales in comparrison to that of Europe. If I am correct, 33% of all cars sold in Europe are wagons. Hence, selling the 300C and the 300C Touring in Europe was only only logical. | |
| of Audis sold in Europe are Avants (wagons). It's funny how this all-American automotive form has become so popular on the Continent while virtually abandoned here. | |
| rusty104- here is some info I have found out . Now this is not 100% set in stone so it could change. The 6.1 will be in a SRT package that you will be able to order on the Magnum ,300C and future Charger . The SRT will include 6.1 Hemi, 20" wheels with 245/255 tires, lower gearing, suspension up-grades, unique fascias frt/rr, lots of special trim inside and out, etc. Not sure when DC plans to launch the SRT option , but it may be the one to wait for . | |
| Otto, that sounds awesome! I will wait for it to come out, I've already been waiting since the concept car first came out, so a while longer won't hurt. Thanks for the info. | |

Hey Rusty104 - Did you get a chance to go to the NE Auto Show this weekend and did they have the 300C there? I was debating going to the show but I didn't see any press stating that the 300C would be there so I wasn't going to bother. Please let me know. Thanks! |

I just answered my own question. According to this website (http://www.paragonexpo.com/newengland/2features.htm) the 300C Concept car will be there. Thanks! |
|
| DC pulled the 30-0C from the show at the last minute. No one at my dealership or at the show knew why. | |
