Re: [Chrysler300] New Hemi C 300

["Owen & Jo Grigg" <ram300@xxxx>]

C'mon guys it's 2003, times have changed, "D-C" are in the business of
selling cars to the mass market. They're not in the business of pleasing a
small group of people that think it's still 1957.
The "ugliness" of the current models makes our cars even more special in my
opinion.
Accept it and get on with life.
My 2c worth
