I know what you mean about the looks growing on ya, i like the look of the sides with those 70's style air vents but the rear window and shape looks a little weird, probably not the best angle... the rear has to definately be dropped tho cool.gif

160kw's does sound a little low but if the car weighs in under 1 tonne then im sure it'll perform very well, some how i doubt it tho, probably closer to 1200kgs...

There was a black one that was doing the rounds at Nats, didn't get to have a close look! but it was a lot smaller than i imagined.... wink.gif looked nice though! Infact there were a couple of imports, even a Dodge RT Viper...... *drool*

The onyl chrysler i would buy

It's Daimler benz's first joined project and it's taken 3 years.

Being built on the old SLK platform means it's starting off on a good base.

Personally needs a better motor but I thik it's fine ofr now a tad over priced needs a $10,000 drop. but form a short hope in ride in the CBD I had it was quite a good little car.

still I woudl rather a 350Z, the cross fire is still more a showman then a go man

well one of the original desgisn were for gull wing but gone right away.
Mercedes wanted them on there flag ship car SL but again cost and reason NO NO.

The question for Daimler chrysler is, does it take more from MErcedes of does it look towards it Japanese counter part like Ford has and combine it's forces. Or does it look at other companys it has control of.

Personally I coudl see the troubled Mitsubishi making chryslers cars, the new NEO a mix of Lancer and Chrylser bits.
