Jeff; It's curious that my posting only included 1/2 a line about the Pacif@#$ and and a paragraph and a half about a new Imperial yet the respondents chose to respond about the prior. I find it frustrating to no end why people seem unable to go beyond skimming the first four lines of a posting before firing off a response, and a somewhat irrelevent one at that. In mentioning the Pacif@#$ I was only attempting to point out that it was the closest thing to an S.U.V or truck that Chrysler has put a higher end label on then Dodge and it bombed. One can talk it up about what a nice vehicle it is, so were Edsels, but none of them were racing out of the showrooms. Given this why would they attempt to market a new Imperial with a lackluster product as it's base? Again for those that missed it here are my Imperial related comments from the last posting: "The only sin that I can point to in Chrysler's latest line-up of cars is the lack of a two door body style, and perhaps a rag top. If Chrysler were to bring back the Imperial, the 300 series would be a good base for it as someone suggested, but with a longer wheelbase. They would also need to spruce the interior and exterior trim; less cheasy plastic and vinyl with perhaps wood veneer, metal brightwork, and better quality upholstery. Again I think that they need a two door body style and perhaps think about offering a limousine and a rag top. I also think that a revived version of the split grille and sparrow strainers would clinch it."
