I agree Russ.....................That Cad looks all wrong. Hidiously ugly.

The 300 has purpose and soul.

yeah i dont get it. the cad is a moose. why on earth anyone would want to buy one is beyond me. two examples of why the US car industry is in a mess. The cad. No 300 SRT10.

The 300C SRT8 with a predator and a decent exhaust is an awesome piece of kit. I took my Sister out in mine today, and I can't repeat the words she said when I floored it! She could not believe something as big and 'ordinary' could go like it did!!

I have Blastin Bob's tail pipes on mine too, you should have seen her jump when I started it up!

Is it because it handles? Oh and you can tune the C5 Z06 LS6 engine in it to 550hp? wink

they are are hilarious things for all those reasons. to quote an american friend they are looking for somewhere to die but so what. its the most fun i have ever bought and still having a laugh.
unpopular in the uk as most buy diesels and then clog the forums up discusssing what MPG they are getting.
i go to monaco and they use their same pride and joy as the local choice for taxis. think that sums that up.
SRT is the thing and jam as many toys as you can buy right up it while its still going.
i have another english classic where i have spent in the last three years what the SRT cost me to buy.
allegiance changed for me, i know what i enjoy.
i just get a log jam what the heck im going to do with it next.
yipppppeeeee

I ain't knockin' it. I love the Caddy and the 300C and they're both phenomenal fun compared to your average hot hatch. I'm not overly keen on the back end of the 300 but it wouldn't stop me buying one.

its a block of flats and no mistake. i think its the antidote to all the eurocrap we get here. hard to tell one model apart now. aerodynamics certainly not being one of its strong points the back is like the front. big. flat.
