Gotta say I love the look of them - saw them in the US before they came over here - estate is called the Dodge Magnum over there.

Been in a few of them and the interior is not that far removed from bloody awful though - plastics snap, seat material stains very easily - very hard to clean and to replace is a thingy cos the covers are stuck to the foam IIRC - and the seats about as comfy as a mattress with broken springs (maybe just me?). All Chryslers are like that though.

Overall build quality is piss poor too, but again, maybe just me?

Oh, permanent traction control too. ::)

I hope you like it though, they do look good! :y

*EDIT*
Just noticed that one has leather, so a few issues cleared in one fell swoop! :y

I have researched these for some time now and as with any car there are some bad points, but overall the write ups on them are good and the reliability is good too, like said, everyone to their own.

Fantastic looking car and lots of power, had a few test drives of the SRT and it felt good on all roads, good cornering, smooth gear change, all in all i liked it.

See what wednesday brings with this one.

I always liked the 300c with the bentley style  grill, but if I was going to buy a 6.1 V8, I would go for the VXR8

i like the looks of them very much, but build is worse than when Merc had their bad stretch, autoboxes don't last long!

I'd have one if i did not do big miles
