Chrysler 300C gets 425 Horses

[Bluerauder]

Maybe this is in response to some lackluster performance of the Chrysler 300C 5.7 Hemi. However, July 2004 issue of Motor Trend, page 30 has an article on the 300C SRT-8.

"The next Chrysler SRT performance model after the Crossfite SRT-6 will be an amped-up 300C, called the SRT-8. Its 5.7 liter Hemi V-8 gets a bump to 6.1 liters and will make an impressive 425 horsepower -- naturally aspirated."

The article goes on to mention suspension and other upgades. To be launched in early 2005.

No mention of fixes to its "Ugly Quotient". :puke:

Could be that we had 'em scared......... :up:

I wonder what the $ticker on that will be . I am guessing $40K. With that price difference, I can totally "Reinhart-out" my MM and STILL beat one, so I'm not too worried.

Ford has reportedly been working on a new 6.2l engine code named "Hurricane" supposedly in the 400 plus HP range.
