Now the Chrysler 300 gets the PVO treatment, next the Dodge Magnum and Dodge Charger will be getting it.

Mopar is back with avengence.

Word on the street is that the Dodge iterations will get 6 speed manual transmissions as well whereas the 300 gets the 5 speed slushy since Dodge is aiming for pure performance while Chrysler is positioned to bridge both sport and comfort.

The Dodges will always have the Mercedes-Benz five-speed automatic with either V8, the Charger will be the first, and possibly only one of the LX cars to offer a manual.

as much as I hate to admit it, the 300 actually looks pretty damn good with the dubs. Fits the High belt line IMOHO.
