    First Spy shots of the 2011 Chrysler 300 !

    http://www.motorauthority.com/blog/1...-300-test-mule



    A brand new version of the Chrysler 300 is coming next year, kicking off a product renaissance at Chrysler that will include a score of new or updated models over the next 48 months.

    The Auburn Hills-based automaker has already previewed its upcoming 2011 Chrysler 300 and now for the first time we have spy shots of the car, albeit just a test-mule hidden under the sheet metal of the current model.


    The 2011 Chrysler 300 is claimed to be up to 19% more fuel-efficient than the current model and to set it apart from the competition it will also feature new levels of connectivity and entertainment.

    Power will come from Chrysler’s Pentastar V-6 or a Hemi V-8 with cylinder deactivation. A high-performance SRT8 model should also be launched.
    Safety features will include ‘Rear Cross Path’ and ‘Blind Spot Monitoring’ systems to warn drivers of unseen vehicles, electronic stability control, an energy-absorbing steering column, a rear-sill reinforced body structure.

    Expect the 2011 Chrysler 300 to make its debut in the first half of next year.
    2007 Dodge Magnum SXT - 3.5L V6 with Mopar CAI and Diablo Preditor Tune.

    and a true classic:

    1975 Dodge Coronet Crestwood Wagon

    It sure looks like the current Srt model with a camo'd nose.
    Shiny paint, big wheels, powerful engine.

    It does look like the current SRT8 wheels on it, somehow the lines look a lil more aggressive, maybe its the angle of the picture.

    ^^ Ya I wouldn't get worked up over the spy shots at all. However, I'm sure we'll be seeing more and more spy shots surfacing in the next few weeks to few months.

    Stock catback, and stock drivetrain

    19% more fuel efficient! That would make it as good or better than most of the Honda's on the road today.

    Have faith my friend... I think everyone will be pleasantly surprised with the interior changes that Chrysler is implementing.

    This is what i have been saying kind of. People were saying how can Chrysler come out with new cars so fast etc. I said Chrysler has always been known for keeping things under close wraps till the last min, and that they were probably testing there new engines, gadgets etc on a curent model just to keep the new one more secret. So guess i was right lol
