DC to build souped-up 300M

DaimlerChrysler AG will start building 8,500 special-edition Chrysler 300M
sedans next month, boosting engine power to lift flagging sales until the
automaker can build a new version using Mercedes-Benz parts. The 2002 300M
Special will have a 255-horsepower, 3.5-liter engine, bigger wheels, added
molding and other features that will make it perform more like future
versions of the car, said Eric Ridenour, Chrysler's premium-vehicle product
team vice president. The No. 3 U.S. automaker will start building the models
Nov. 5 in Brampton, Ontario. Chrysler plans to use special versions of its
products and new accessories to increase sales next year because it doesn't
have any new high-volume models to introduce, executives have said.
