HEMI, baby !!

It's also a roomy comfortable car that reminds you of what big American iron used to be. Other cars can out-handle it and give better road feedback, but it has coolness factor thats hard to beat. The regular 300 is sorta drab inside but the 300C has some additional goodies that make it look and feel nicer.

So-
negatives:
- its an American car with low resale
- some blind spots due to high beltline
- bad non-highway MPG, but gets low 20s on open road
- clumsy handling, sometimes

positives:
- big and roomy, no claustrophobia especially with the big sunroof open
- HEMI power
- coolness (just ask some kids)
- M-B running gear
- no squeaks and rattles (yet)
