Typical indeed.  However with all there "new" models coming out maybe Furd
will surprise the industry with a performance sedan, a "pace car for the
family / business enthusiasts".  Otherwise the Dodge/Chrysler offerings is
going to wipe them out.

I'm currently waiting on the local Dodge dealerships to get in a Magnum with
the Hemi and 5-spd auto (autostick).  6.3s 0-60 with the 2.82 rear gear and
4100 lbs isn't bad.

Just watching the Autoweek TV show.

A couple of interesting things:

1. Maurauder is dead after 2004. There were plans for a force induction 2005

model but as usual, Ford went half-assed and only half-finshed the car. 2.
Chrysler 300C. Kinda cool! Rear drive sedan Hemi with 390 ft lb of torque.  
5 speed Mercedes automatic trans with the Hemi.
