2008 LX and LY models: Features and Changes

[spentan]

bah, ADR always interfering with our fun,

Considering that Chrysler's Factory Accessories brand (MOPAR) do a remote start, can we tell cops here, that Remote Start is a factory fitted option?

was just wondering, because in 40degree dry summer heat, theres nothing worse than burning yourself on your beautiful leather.

The redesign is coming even earlier than mentioned, thats what the rumor mill is saying that the interior will be refreshed in 08 overhauled in 09 so that means the auto shows in late 08 will have a totally new interior, a total overhaul and even more new then the 08 refresh coming up next month.
Here is a story that kinda backs it up :
Chrysler says its interiors will get more attention - Autoblog

The minivans look fine inside and out. As nice as any other vehicle in the segment.

The most sensible comment I saw:

I've come to the conclusion that all of you must drive Bentleys, Rolls, A8s, 7-series, and S-classes. Last time I was in a Camry, what did I see? Plastic. Last in an Accord? Plastic. Hell... Infinity, Acura, even the mighty Lexus - PLASTIC. 95% of the cars manufactured in the world have a dash with a big "expanse" of... PLASTIC.

Bob-omb @ Aug 7th 2007 3:52PM
Oh boohoo. Of course car interiors are acres of plastic. That doesn't mean a thing. Chrysler interiors are badly designed, use unpleasing colors, have sharp corners, and are poorly put together. It's in practically all of their products, no matter how "upscale" they're supposed to be. It's not focused Chrysler bashing, it's just pointing out the obvious.

^ I praise Chrysler for not being gutless like everyone else and being different. Those dashes that are all organic make me feel like throwing up, if anything they make me seasick.

dan @ Aug 7th 2007 1:31PM
The LX cars have more legroom than almost anything else on the market. That's a more important interior feature to me than how hard the plastic on the dash is.

If only they hadn't ruined them with a belt line up to your neck. Way to go, exterior design department.

^ Yeah. Let's do what GM did with the CTS and make the windows go down as low as a camry on the sides. In fact, let's make it look like a Camry.

You got me chuckling with that comment OoTLink.

That's one of the things most 300C owners like about the design, the chopped look.

Maybe you should raise your seat

'08 model - light refresh
'09 model - slight tweaks
'10 model - all-new vehicle

resume i trust your info but im hearing due to the competition that the 09 model year will be a very short one due to the all new 300 vehicle that will launch in early 09.. to do battle with the 09 acura tl and the 09 ford large sedan and the 09 impala and the 09 linc mkr and the 09 large sedan saturn.. Ok no more and's but you get my point. Any rumblings on that info

[smoove7410]

I didn't know ford was going to have the large sedan ready for 09. Too bad they don't have balls and it won't even resemble the interceptor.
