Sorry to say guys... I'm abandoning the 05 for a Chrysler 300. The thing is just so god damn nice. Reminds me of the cars in the old gangster flicks. Bai bai Mustang

I hope you are paying extra so that you can get the better engine.

Cool! The 300 is not a bad looking car. I'm not old enough for 4 doors, yet, but when I get there, the 300 would be the kind of car I'd consider...

I have to admit, I really like the look of that car as well. Even some of my friends that are all about the imports are liking that car. The American car companies have really started waking up over the past 5 years or so.

I like the look of the 300 but it's still no mustang, make sure you get the HEMIspherical engine. It will NOT beat a GT.

LoL, my choice with the 300 pretty much says that i'm abandoning speed all together. I know i'll get flamed for this but heres what i'm doing.

Base 300
20 in. rims
Billet Grille
Custom Interior
Aftermarket Leather
Limo Tint
...whatever else i cna think of

All of this will accomodate a whopping 200 hp and 196 pounds of torque....
However
It will be without a doubt, TRICKED OUT

Oh yea its a 2.6 engine haha

Buy what you want, since you have to drive it and make the payments. If that's not a Mustang, so be it. The world would be a boring (but fast) place if everyone drove Mustang GT's...

I dunno about that wuss engine choice, but I'd LOVE to see a 300 with 20 inch rims. I think its only a matter of time. Did you guys hear Snoop Dogg is going to get one and wants to endorse them? I don't know if endorse is the proper word, but its something along those lines. I read it in the Detroit News a couple weeks ago.

One of the magazine's got the 300C (Hemi) to 14.0 in 1/4. I'd say that would keep up plenty with a GT.
