300C vs Monaro vs Jag S

Discussion in 'Chrysler 300' started by Dori A Schmetterling, Oct 26, 2004.

  1. According to the TV prog it's being brought to the UK 'officially' next year
    and I thought I heard them say with RHD.

    And, BTW, you're right about little change on our roads. They're still
    twisty. (Well, not our motorways.)

    Well, looks as though you'll be interested. The sedan version of the Magnum is
    the Charger and it looks much better than the 300C (curved, sloping top and a
    kick-up in the body at the c-pillar).

    Can the Dodge grill fit on the Chrysler?

  4. The Charger is a two door which is even less interesting than a station
    wagon.

  5. Sorry I take that back. I was looking a a tiny picture of the Charger and
    it looked like a two door. When I found a big picture it was clear that
    it's a four door. However it looks like it has small windows like the 300.

    What's wrong with smaller windows? My Pacifica has smaller windows that my T&C
    LXi and they have caused no problems in the year+ I have owned it. Besides,
    smaller windows were the norm prior to 1955.

    No, a Charger should be a two-door; this one is, however, a four-door
    sedan.

  8. No seatbelts were the norm in 1955 also, as were unpadded dashes, tires
    with inner tubes, crappy brakes, mushy suspensions, filthy exhaust. Which
    feature of a 1950s car are you most nostalgic for?

    Congratulations - you responded exactly as I expected you would. I, personally,
    prefer the smaller windows as I feel safer and more secure when I have more
    metal surrounding me (case-in-point, I feel considerably more safe and secure
    when in my Pacifica vs. my T&C). I also feel more rigidity is added when the
    windows are smaller. But, alas, I am merely one person speaking my opinion.
    However, as the 300 and Magnum are so popular, others may (note I say may not
    must) feel the same way. Also, because of their popularity I don't expect DC to
    change the styling becaus you don't like small windows. As for your questions
    regarding nostalgic features? Probably filthy exhaust is what I miss most.
    Nothing like the performance of a vehicle without emissions devices, computers
    to control them and catalyic converters to make one appreciate what once was
    and never will be again.

    There is (or will be in a few months) It's called "Charger" (yeah, wrong
    name for a sedan. The sedan should be 'Coronet' and a coupe should be
    'Charger' if they're going retro). Not sure when they're supposed to be
    hitting showrooms, but pretty soon now.
