Then I'll send them a link to one... CNN Money's Best New Car;

http://money.cnn.com/2004/11/05/pf/autos/chrysler_300_best_new_cars/index.htm

That's right, FoMoCo... a large V8 powered RWD sedan. Oh... and the Most Dissappointing;

http://money.cnn.com/2004/11/09/pf/autos/dissappointing_best_new_cars/index.htm

The Phaeton (VW), The GTO (Looks like a Cavalier, priceless! I've said that since I saw my 1st one!), and the Ford Five Hundred.

BTW, CNN Money, it's "disappointing", not "dissapointing", unless you meant to diss us ;-)

Not surprised about this. The 300C is a runaway sales success for Chrysler. In your styling, good power and a good pricing helps this car keep it's sales brisk. As for the Five Hundred, I have always said that it looked like a rehashed VW or Audi. Rumor has it that maybe the new V8 for the Volvo SUV will go into the Five Hundred. It is a 4.4 liter with 311hp. This and a refreshing in 2007 may help.
