Interior doesn't look bad to me. I think theyre nice minor updates.

It is cool that all models will have now SRT8 lower body cladding.

!@#$%^&* ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL !@#$%^&*


Stuff the minor interior changes that thing is the coolest, it must have been inherited from the S series Mercedes-Benz??? If i'm correct isn't that the cruise which slows accordingly, like if the car in front slows to 20MPH and you were doing 60MPH it will change its speed accordingly to avoid an accident and then speed up again once the car in front has resumed normal speed...
CRAZY

(Hope im right)...

Most of the time, adaptive cruise control comes with a form of crash avoidance where the car beeps/flashes at you to slam the brakes when you're dangerously close to the car in front of you....

If all cars had that, rear endings would be nearly nonexistent!

You'll need those new tail lamps too. There slightly different as well. They follow the lines of the decklid.

Thanks OotLink that sorta helps, does that mean that what i'm explaining is just a beep when you get too close to the car in front? Or is that on top of the distance maintaining(auto pilot) style of cruise control? I know the Mercedes-Benz S500 has the feature along with amazing other stuff like infrared cameras and other fancy little gimmicks...But lets face it, it costs two arms and a leg. Thanks

No no, adaptive cruise control is exactly what you described - where the car slows down (temporarily usually) for the car in front of you as necessary. What I was talking about, is a feature that a lot of cars with adaptive cruise also happen to have (and it's a great safety feature!)

IMHO chrysler should put stuff like that across the line to differentiate themselves.

Is the front also going to have it? From the photoshop, no, but that would look horrible.

Hard to say. Description does state:

Summary of new features and changes for the 2008 300 Models:

Simplified Price Class and Package/Options
LX – new name for “base” level car
Front and Rear Fascias and Grille

These rear head rests and rear seat config....

What makes you so sure the 2008 config will be more like the latter and not the former?
