[Procharged5.0]

Thanks Johnny! I'm loving the 300! It's a perfect fit for me. Great handling & brakes plus killer looks (for a 4 door sedan)!

Power is good but after wheeling my near 600hp/3100 lb Mustang everything feels slow.......LOL!.

btw...I think GM is on to something with the Saab 9.3 platformed G6/Malibu/Aura/etc. A few refinements on the brakes and engine mounting plus some programming tweaks on the trans and it's a pretty impressive car. I just traded in an '05 G6 GT for this 300M Special (the 300 Special is light years better) but the G6 had very powerful brakes (with god aweful rotors the warped & unwarped whenever they felt like it), Continental tires that gripped like crazy (I was impressed!), and a tight chassis. The "electric assist" steering was bogus as the steering wheel felt disconnected from the car at low speeds but felt "dialed in" at 60+. Not bad...just needs a few tweaks. Thankfully more power and hydraulic assist steering is on the way with the '07's.

I've always hated the feel of transverse mounted engines. Torque steer and service issue top the list. Thank god the 300 has it's engine pointing in the right direction! It's easy to work on and is relatively high tech (would be even better if it had variable valve timing) but oh well.

.............I'm rambling now.....Sorry!
