RE: IML: read about and add 2 cents to the next generation imperial debate

["bill parker" <hemirr@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Some of the comments kind of hit on what made the Imperial struggle in the 
first place (middle place? last place?)  I was struck by the dude who said 
that for a few bucks added to the 300C you'd have the same thing.  It wasn't 
true back then (take my '65, it wasn't much at ALL like the '65 Chryslers 
except for the drivetrain) but it may be more true now, it obviously is 
sitting there on the 300 type platform.  I think that Caddy became the "go 
to" car for the well to do near-retiree back when, the lifelong goal so to 
speak, but Lincoln and Imperial didn't quite ever get to that default 
position.  I understand why Chrysler had to go to making it on the C 
platform for money reasons, yet they gave up some of the differentiation too 
(and yes I do like the later 60's and the '70's models, I just love the '65)
