Nice ride. They're decent cars, but my philosophy is this with performance vehicles - no clutch, no care.

If the Charger or 300c SRT-8 models had true manuals, I'd be seriously interested in them.

By the way, love how all your rides match! My black C6 matches my black truck!

BTW are you still active duty? If so you must be Commanding General of the Universe to have all those cars

Default 300C as dd?

Black rules! I was thinking maybe 300C, but now I'm thinking by 2010, even with 2 small kids, a new Camaro will be my DD.

I was interested in the car until I discovered no manual trans available. Why own such a vehicle with an automatic?

Nice cars, nice house! Ever think about the CTS-V or STS-V as daily drivers? Either way, the car looks great!

Good looking stable. I like the Bentley grill on the 300.

Nice ride man.
I love the entire SRT-8 line...300C, Charger and especially the Magnum and Grand Cherokee.

Default U the MAN!

.........The oil executives like their Hemi 300's. They like you in your 300 too. OK no more MPG jokes. I and the public are thumbs up on Chryslers big boy. That would definitly be Dick Tracy's police car!

Nice stable. Are you responsible for keeping the cars cleans? One black car is hard enough but 3...

Great picture, looks like a rap star lives there, did MTV just finish shooting Cribs there?

Black is the best looking color, gets even better when there is more than one....

They're nice looking cars with strong motors but the interior is nothing to write home about and it's a Chrysler.

Because it's a full size sedan? How many Caddilac STS's are sold with manual transissions? Jeez, you guys with your "if it's not a manual it's not a car" wear me out.

Nice car. I REALLY wanted one when we replaced our sedan, but like the Harley Davidson commercial, "...my wife wanted a dinette set... Harley... Dinette... Harley... It's a very lovely Oak table with matching high back chairs...."

She wouldn't so much as look at one. She liked the Buick Lucerne much better . I now have a Lucerne, but I think the Vette was her way of making it up to me.

Another SRT8 owner checking in I also have the Magnum. Fun car to drive, unfortunately is hasn't received much love since I picked up the C6.
