    Arrow new chrysler 300c..not in america???

    ok so weve all seen what the 2011 300c is suppose to look like, i know here in the usa alot of people have done a good job of chopping a magnum with a 300c front end, but over seas the car coomes like that from the factory (as if you didnt know that already)
    but i wanted 2 questions:
    a.) what will the wagon version of the 300c look like?
    and
    b.) since cadillac has decided to turn their cts into a wagon version, and since the magnum was brutally murdered, will chrysler/fiat make a 300c wagon here in the states?could it be possible?

    im hoping i could see what thatd look like and i know many of you are curious too

    yeah id like to see the wagon part redesigned too, although you have to wonder that somewhere in all this financial mess, chrysler is kicking its own ass and slapping itself in the face for pulling out the magnum this early in the wagon wars.

    My understanding is that the stamping dies for the body panels are still at the plant just in storage..

    Nothing to stop em from bringing it back if they ever wanted/decided to.

    i heard/saw something about tesla using the dodge magnums as a "test mule" i mean thats a disgrace! you do that to hondas not clasic mopars!!!

    ehem enough of my rant, but i doubt itll comeback as much as id like it to be back, i mean as much as WE would like it to come back but think about it, withthe challenger already here and the charger as a sedan i dont think magnum sales would be too high maybe SE and SXT and a few R/T models even in 2008 the srt8 wasnt mas produced and it was rare.

    Give it a "higher end interior styling" so to speak (don't kill me i like the current mag interior), drop that peice of garbage dodge journey from the line up, lighten up the new mag design,kinda heavy,give a me a deisel option (I would like that) and maybe just maybe it would sell.....

    Be glad your driving a cool limited production car that will never be built again. I had a guy approach me today and say," Wow what a cool car, wonder why you don't see many of them?" I said, " They were just too cool to catch on." Like a 1956 Studebaker Golden Hawk, was too cool to catch on in 1956.

    when i wash my car and detail it the siler steel metallic glows and i have seen peoples heads turn to look at my car before, but jst like the 78 magnum i dont think ours will hold any value, maybe te srt8 but who whod care for a 2.7/3.5??? or even the 5.7?

    that is the picture i saw and yeah i now noticed no exhaust, could it be an EV in the makng?

    yeah but unless its a numbers matching car it really isnt going to hold alot of value, but if someone were to do a, say for example 392 hemi swap in their SE challenger- oh yeah theyll get some good money for it-but an se or sxt like mine - pffft ill have offers such this: "ill give you 2500 dollars one goat 3 onions a dozen eggs and 1 half eaten chocolate coin, whatd you say???" -then ill go "throw in a pair of socks and its yours!"
