Spied a newer SRT8 today, and have to say it's a pretty hansom looking car!







Have to have Chrysler is definitely stepping up their game!

Great for the boulevard. Wallows like a buffalo when driven hard. They are getting closer.

I saw the Top Gear review. They agreed that it looks nice. Handles like a snow plow though.

They do by far the best job of styling of any USA auto maker. Unfortunately they compete at the bottom price segment and their sweet looking things turn to junk in about a year. They are the masters of designing things to fall apart in short order

I'm surprised since its very Mercedes like and uses a ZF transmission.

I bet their is a lot of W211 E550 in that car.

Ive driven one. It's nice enough, I don't care for the size and the high belt line/smallish windows. Also, a 4 door sedan doesn't fit our lifestyle. We have dogs, not kids. We ski and bike and drive on dirt roads to camp and canoe etc . A hemi powered sedan would be silly.

I've always thought the 300 was a looker, fantastic styling. As far as actual driving dynamics goes, the steering leaves a lot to be desired but the ride is very good IMHO for that class/style. Its not a performance turn-carver, its a muscle car if anything, a luxo-barge at its greatest extent. It excels at that. I like it, but I wouldn't own one -- at least not now. I test drove a bunch of hemi/SRTwhatever ones (along with chargers) when I was shopping around this summer and they were just too numb. Not drivers' cars but stylish and still fast.
