Sweet thread.

Please let me take this time to thank the academy for their consideration. I had high hopes for my thread, but in the end the competition was just too good. I just hope everyone enjoyed it while it lasted.

I just bought my wife an 05 Chrysler Sebring. Seems a good family car overall, much better then a huge SUV allowing my wife to join the Soccer Mom SUV owners ranks.

Crossfire I could live without. The 300c really ain't too bad. You are getting a lot of a mercedes for not much money and with the V8 its actually fast and handles pretty decently for a huge heavy car. Its the perfect ghetto bentley. The plastic grille is still classic chrysler though. I can't even think of any other chyslers that exist.

I couldn't agree more. Reminds me of that other thread with the Ducati guy vs. Japan8. And the Racing Beat thread I started. It always turns into a battle of egos instead of real discussion on the topic.

If I owned a Chrysler 300, I would feel weird in that plastic interior. Same thing for the new Mustang. People who buy them have to play all kinds of head games with trying to convince themselves it's a pretty good car all-around.

The difference is the Chrysler is a good concept that you probably don't want the trouble of owning. The Mustang is a bad concept that you don't want the trouble of owning.

Reactionary, I took the two topics you started as attempts to bash american cars, as did others on this forum. I took it like you'd never want to own a Ford or Chrysler, not as a topic where you wanted people to actually list the cars they like from each company. So which is it?

Chrysler Corp. cars:

Daytona IROC R/T,
Steath R/ Twin Turbo,
'01-'03 Sebring coupe,
Prowler, and
Viper.

I almost bought a Daytona IROC R/T (only 492 of those made) but didn't have the money at the time.

This is such a random thread but I'll bite...

Viper SRT-10
Ram SRT-10
Neon SRT-4
Charger SRT-8
Crossfire SRT-6
300C SRT-8

...plus the Magnum RT AWD Hemi, most full size trucks Dodge makes, and a Hemi Durango. I think DCx is making exciting cars. Chrysler is a helluva lot funner than it was 5-8 years ago.

I wouldn't buy any of those cars because there are better alternatives in each class.

There's a better alternative to the SRT4 for ~20,000? Performance wise, I'd have a really hard time passing that car up if I only had $20,000 to spend and wanted a decent all-around performer.

HEY! We made peace.

I had started out only trying to raise a conversation about bikes in general, the good, bad and people's experiences. But it got taken the wrong way.
