I would love to see the 300 with an oil burner in it I didn't get the Hemi because of the problems ( I worked at a 5star dealership and saw all the problems but I must admit I would jump on the SRT because I feel that not having the MDS is a plus) I like my 30 plus MPG with the 3.5 and it still hauls asswell just not the pick up. going 120MPH between salt lake city with 5 people and a trunk stuffed with luggage for a month aint all bad
I REALLY like my Charger, and am BEYOND happy that I own it. It's the first Mopar I've owned in a long time. Though the car's had a few issues, I think it's a great car. But, sometimes, especially after reading all of the headaches some people have, I get worried about what's around the corner for an issue with the car, and such. I'm still glad I picked it over an '06 GTO, and I'm a true GM diehard.

I must admit that dollar for dollar you cannot beat the 300c. For power, luxury and sheer cool factor nothing comes close. Needless to say I will buy another Chrysler product although I am going to try for the Charger or maybe, God willing, the Challenger. That is, of course, provided nobody goes "wobbly" at Bali and prohibits these beasts from lurking on North American roads(with due deference to our international 300c owners). To Hell with Kyoto and its bastard offspring!
need some help. want to up grade exhaust. want to sound strong but my question is that 4-6-8 thing , does a 300c idle like a 4 banger??? is the only
time you get a performance sound when you have it flay footed??

Just noticed your post and now you're long gone. It's not a 4-6-8 thing, but rather a 4-8 thing. In other words it's called MDS or Multiple Displacement System where 4 cylinders shut down.
Most prefer the Corsa exhaust because it doesn't give you drone. At WOT it'll give you the sound you're looking for.
