Default Replacement secured

I bought the replacement car for my Vette...

2004 Chrysler 300M "Special"
- Charcoal / Graphite / Metalic paint with black interior
- 245/45/18 ZR BFGoodrich on aluminum wheels
- 4 speed auto w/OD and auto-shift feature
- 260 HP and 280 Tourque
- All the goodies and options
- Best of all it is really comfortable, yet has sport suspension.

Anyway, best of luck to all of ya. We may be back down the road.

I was looking at a Chrysler Charger with the 5.7Hemi for a replacement of my 04 Maxima. My vette is un-replaceable. As are most cars on the verge of becoming classics. Lol of luck with your Chrylser.

Joe3906,
Charger would be a nice choice. We are a Chrysler Family(parents, grandparents, my wife and I). We currently have; 2005 300C-5.7L Hemi, 2004 Turbo PT Cruiser, 2003 PT Cruiser, 2001 Jeep w/v-8, my 2004 300M-Special. Hardly any problems and a really good local dealer.

Our 1996 CE LT1 was a blast but, just not fitting into our picture right now. However, my father-in-law still has his 1996 LT1 (punched out to nearly 400Hp+) that he allows me to drive so...I'm not all the way out.

Take care guys.
