Bill content: 5 out of 10 of these are GM.

Kevin content: I thought of a used CTS-V1...

And here's a comment that caught my eye:

I just bought a 2006 Chrysler 300 SRT8 with 80k miles for $7k

Good lord. Do I take another look at the 300C that I didn't like, or the SRT that I've never driven (and $7k is still too much)?

Hmm, getting one of those for $7k versus $25k or whatever they were the last time you looked could be a game changer.

[Adam]

Not quite 400hp, but the price is closer.

I don't like the Magnum. The 300C is my favorite LX. One issue with the SRT-8 is they wear 20s.

Maybe my tolerance of the 300C would go up since the price is much cheaper now. Plus you can get the 300C in AWD....for extra fuel economy.

[Bob]

AWD would make it an interesting choice for the winter. Fuel economy should be on par with a GMT900 SUV.

It would. On the other hand it would amplify the characteristics about the 300C that I DON'T like. I think the suspension treatment on those was similar to what BMW did on the E46 330xi vs the 330i. It was higher ride height and softer.
