Has this photo been around before? I haven't seen it.

I'm not sure I've seen that one before - but I'm pretty sure it's not going to look anything like that. The latest renditions I saw were very close to the current model - but nicely updated.. I love the picture, though...

It may have been in some of the ATF BK filings however, not in this quality. IMO, Chrysler did not make the front end better, to put it mildly!

Sa-weet! I looks awesome although it looks like a chop.

As far as I understand the next 300 was the one showing in the brochure prepared for the government. But this much better rendering as been popping up everywhere lately . . . Motor Trend has had it since March, in an even better looking rendition

I think that looks much better than the current 300, which is getting stale in my opinion.

When the 300C came out the first and only thing that came to mind was "Yet another gangters-mobile that is going to appear in every music video on MTV next to the Escalade for years to come" I really dont think that there is a real need for a car like that.

if thats what it will look like then Chrysler has a winner on its hands

Chrysler/dodge need to ditch this crappy overly macho and retro-inspired design theme they've got going. The above design looks dated already.

No need? It kept Chrysler afloat until the Carpocalypse happened. They sold hundreds of thousands of them, and at least for the first couple of years, they made HUGE profits on them.

Of course there is a need. Where else can anyone buy a modern, large RWD 4 door sedan in this country without spending over $40,000?

Isn't that a shot of the Imperial concept that made the auto-show rounds recently?? Can barely make out some script down the side...

You are thinking of this:

Slideways · 09-04-2009, 04:42 PM

The Imperial was a little too Rolls Royce, but it was cool as hell.

This photoshopped picture has been around for months. It was on MT's Cover I believe.

I would like to see a side view.

It was lifted about a foot with new mudder tires, chromed out undercarriage, and custom airbrushed paintjob. The salesman told me he traded it for a Silverado HD.
