'05 300 C...the new one

[<tomswift@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is totally un-Imperial, so I know I'll get spanked, but the new 300 really 
is an 
interesting car.  I have seen a few up close, though I haven't driven one, and 
I'm very 
impressed with the overall quality of the car.  The styling is quite 
distinctive.  Very bold 
and blocky, but in a nice way.  Not sure yet if I really like it, but it 
definitely has "character."  
It's also very reminiscent of the '57 300, with the big, argent finish eggcrate 
grille.  But it 
also reminds me of a Bentley or a Rolls.

The combination of power and opulence/elegance really says they'e captured the 
original spirit of the 300, which was "the gentleman's race car," and also 
indicates to me 
that they could, if they wanted to, come up with a new Imperial that would be a 
great 
combination of the old and the new.
