300C's? Where?

I heard on the news yesterday that D-C is increasing the number of shifts at
their plant in Canada this summer because they can't keep up with the orders
of 300C's. I wonder where they're going because I hardly see any in
Toronto.

 

Sounds as if you need new spectacles -- I see them *all over* Toronto.

Chrysler is trying to convince the UAW to have only a one week shutdown
this summer at the plant the makes the 300 instead of the normal two
week shutdown to help with the backlog of orders.

 

Must be those headlights on the Intrepid, Dan, cuz I just got new specs a
month ago and I still don't see the 300C's. They must be hiding out in the
poshy part of town : )

I've seen about five or six so far in Maryland.

 

You won't see many - if any - here on Long Island. The only one I see
is the one in my driveway

 

Queen and Coxwell is poshy...? Bloor and Ossington...? Yonge and...well,
anything...?

Kokomo, Indiana is full of them. Also starting to see a lot of Magnum's
roaming around

 

Haven't see a single one on the street in Massachusetts.

 

In the Hudson Valley of NY, they've become nearly ubiquitous. Looks like a
Mopar home run!
Now, imagine the 6.1L Hemi, forged crank, good rods, 400+ HP...

According to USA today they are selling great.

 

In fact they are selling so great they are cutting off the rental car
company's supply.

 

Me too.

I have seen that the Budget dealer on Derry Road north of the Airport has
some for rent. Ugly cream colour though.

Yep, Kokomo is crawling with them because that is where Chrysler builds
all of their automatic transmissions. Chrysler products are very
"over-represented" in Kokomo.

 

As well they should. Chrysler, has built a solid, FAST sedan that's
got the looks to match the performance. It brings a grin to my face
everytime I start my ride to work in the morning.

The looks haven't grown on me yet...and probably won't. Every time I see a
300, I want a sandwich (looks like the bread box in my kitchen).

 

Check out the old Downsview Air Force Base, there's hundreds of them parked
there.
Don't know why, first time I've seen that many Chryslers in one spot.

At an Air Force base? I used to work for a defense contractor. A lot of
the vehicles parked at an Air Force Base can be from visitors. Translation:
rental cars.

 

Storage parking. Airports are common places for manufacturers to park
new cars that are waiting to be sold and transported.

Think about it. Airports are fenced and secure places (usually).
Hard to get onto an airport field (without being caught). Even harder
(or impossible) to steal a car that's parked on the tarmack (assuming
it's drivable. Probably don't have much gas in them anyways). No
doubt a source of revenue for the airport.

It's pretty common to see hundreds of cars parked on the perimiter of
the airport field in Windsor (Ontario) if you're on the EC-Row
overpass at Lauzon rd.
