If for looks, no, it does not have the American Muscle look, more European in styling/elegance. The Magnum and Charger has more of the American Muscle look to them.

Does the 300SRT have the feel and power of an American Muscle car. You Betcha .

Since Daimler came on board, is the 300 German. With reference to the engineering, I would have to say Yes. The Anti-lock brakes, the limted slip, etc. we have now are all MercBenz.

I only look forward to more of the MercBenz engineering to make there way onto more of our cars, parts, improvements, etc.

I would have to agree with you on every point FreebirdSRT.

Ahem, well the 300Cs we get here in OZ are built in Austria, so - European

In actual fact the general consensus here from the public and the press is American .

Like pizza, I view it as German engineering filtered to American taste so much that the orignators might not recognize it. And yes, I've had pizza in Sicily

Well then not one LX model is built in the US. Either built in Canada or Austria. So tell me how does this win over the general consensus that it is American,lol.

The front end designs of the Magnum and the Charger are dead on for American muscle look. Not the 300. Just my .02

Especially after reading this. I will re state what I just wrote.

I agree with Rambit. It is more of a World Muscle Car.

I like the sound of that, A WORLD MUSCLE CAR.
