To clarify - my statement was based on the 30% off of the list price that I
paid for a new 2005 300C fully loaded for $32K. - heated leather,
navigation, sunroof, memory powered seats/steering/peddles/mirrors, backup
sensors, Boston sound, 350 HP, mds for hwy economy..
Fine for me since I only drive about 12000 KM a year. The money saved at the
front end more than pays for extra fuel consumption over the next 5 years as
compared to an import with all those features. To top it off it doesn't
require premium fuel. I also increased warranty to 5 yrs B/B and 7 yrs p/t
for very little extra cost. Seems like a no brainer at that price. What am I
missing here ? <snip

You're missing $4+/gal. gas from this summer onward.

Only place you see 300s selling now is in de ghetto.

The gas consumption with the 3.5L or Hemi isn't that bad.
The latest EPA gives the 3.5L 17/24 while the Hemi gets 15/23.
This compared to a 3.0L Honda Accord which gets 18/26.
If you like the look of the 300/Charger/Magnum gas consumption shouldn't be
the only reason why you don't get one.
