It's really Ford's take on the Chrysler 300. It should've been on the road at least two years ago. |

Same could be said about Chrysler's Challenger, except the time frame would be about 20 years ago. > > True true... but nice car: 400 horse is crazy, and alternative fuel, > > and a manual....

Unless we're talking about pony cars. And as already noted Chrysler doesn't offer a manual transmission. The CTS-V has one, and Ford will soon. C'mon Chrysler, get with the program. Patrick |

Back when the Mustang debuted, Chrysler Corp. had the Plymouth Barracuda, but it wasn't really a direct competitor. You're right in that the Challenger was produced in direct competition to the Mustang. Of course, Darts and Valiants were around back in the early '60s, as were Falcons. >> > True true... but nice car: 400 horse is crazy, and alternative fuel, >> > and a manual....
