What about the fact that they're reverting all V6 models back to the crummy 4-speed automatic? That's not a step in the right direction.

Does that also apply to the 300C CRD (diesel) for the Euro / Aussie markets?

Don't know if this is news, but the Dodge Challenger will be built on the new LY platform.

"Dodge's all-new musclecar will be built on the new RWD platform in Ontario, Canada. Production will start in the spring of 2008, and the Challenger will go on sale shortly afterwards as a 2008 model. Pricing is expected to start around $31,000, although it's rumored that the R/T models have all been pre-sold in the 50K range. A convertible is also expected."

I got 75000 on her now had the stering col replaced under warranty and fuel pump. Word of advice to everyone when you get brakes get rotors stock rotors are worthless unless you have a srt. Oh yeah had crys install a new sunroof (entire component) under warranty it was leaking and making noise. So 75000 miles about 2000 spent on warranty deductables, rotors and reg maint.

So, the LX platform cars will now only run 5 years instead of six? 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 & 2009.

A total redesign isn't a bad thing, it'll make our cars more exclusive, not that they really are hehe.

I just hope they don't make the Nassau out of it o_O

the 300c is still really exclusive, out here in Australia, still sends a shiver down my spine everytime I see one

Wonder when these 08ers are coming down to Aus, I'm not too sure I like the new interior.
