Good to know! I like the sound of the 1.4 as well, especially when modified with Abarth style exhaust.

BTW: how do you like the Dart? The 1.4T and manual is the best engine IMO (my dealer only got a GT in yesterday... I shall drive it soon).

You do realize those 3 vehicles are the only ones that still use the old technology, and are being updated in the next year...

Okay, pretty close then.

I like the continuation of letter designation.

You have got to be kidding me... using a joke that's 10-15 years old? WEAK

When were Chrysler's problems with transmissions and head gaskets? IN THE 90S AND EARLY 2000S! Why did they exist? The head gaskets were on Mitsubishi motors, and the Transmissions were outsourced (but yes, junk).

I'm glad that my current car (an '02 300M) is more liked than my last car ('04 Stratus R/T sedan).

I saw this, and figured you'd appreciate my car.

I wasn't thinking of an engine swap, especially since the 300M makes more power than any of the Charger/300 3.5L V6s (250 HP in the M, with 255 in the Special M vs. 235-250 in the Charger/300).

A RWD swapped 300M is definitely on my 'to do' list, especially since I own one.

Yep, I have no clue why they did it that way.

I have dreams of a RWD 300M, probably using Prowler running gear, or even Charger/later 300 running gear (since they all used the 3.5L).

Despite being FWD, the 300M was considered one of the best cars of the early 2000s. Also, the 3.5L V6 was one hell of an engine in that car.

Makes sense, at least for a base Intrepid.

My 300M 'requires' V-rated tires minimum. Oddly enough, it's not even the 300 Special M (which has the limiter moved up to 149MPH).

My problem with it is the unreliability of the transmission though. My car just had to get a new one, and it's only at 103,000 miles.

And, since I've been on the LH forums, I've seen that the transmissions have a lot of issues. Most of the issues stem from the engines being too powerful for what the transmission is…

I have to agree that the 300M is nice, as the current owner of one. The only thing I don't like is the POS transmission. Otherwise, it's an awesome car!

3.5L LH cars (Intrepid/300M) were limited to 118 technically, although for some reason, a lot of Chryslers of the early 2000s cut out at 110.

He's a GT-R fan who just got his dream car. No masturbation required!

It would then get abbreviated to Moup? No, not gonna work.


I have to add the disclaimer that you need to know the Origin of the name Mopar to get the joke.

MOPAR OR NO CAR!
