Drifting 300C Riyadh

There's nothing like rap music and 300C drifting on public streets in Riyadh. Actually the rap was pretty good. Now I'd get arrested over here for doing that, the drivers must know the judge. People who walk must not last long, do you think ?

300C in the Middle East

If you are in the middle east looking for a Chrysler 300C there are dealers in these countries Kuwait, Jordan, Lebanon, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman, Saudi Arabia I couldn't find a dealership in Israel, Syria, or Iran.
I don't know why but to me it is funny or maybe just weird that they emphasis the MDS over there used in the .5.7 - liter HEMI V8 engine with Multi-Displacement System (MDS), 340 horsepower 390 lb-ft of torque, the most horsepower in its class. MDS allows the engine to operate on four cylinders when power demands are minimal. This provides the power of a V8 with economy of a large V6.

Of course if one wants to move along quickly you should have a 300C SRT86.1 - liter SRT HEMI engine with 425 horsepower and 420 lb-ft torque (Standard on 300C SRT8).

High International 300C Sales

The big Chrysler boys and girls should be smiling a little, international sales in January rose 12 percent making it the second-best January in the company's history. My favorite the Chrysler 300C came in third almost tying for second highest sales. The Italians apparently like Chrysler a lot as they were the highest-volume market outside North America, grew 16 percent to 1,854 units, the company said. Emerging markets, such as Eastern Europe, where sales were up 59 percent,hummmm they must be finding gold somewhere and China, where sales nearly tripled, I am surprised they weren't even higher with all the new wealth in that country. via Reuters

300C SRT8 in India

Interesting post at team-bhp forum about the first Chrysler 300C SRT8 in Mumbai, India( used to be called Bombay for those who are not sure about their geography) With an estimated population of 13 million, it is the largest metropolis in India. With a population of 19 million, it is one of the world's top 10 centers of commerce in terms of global financial flow, home to the big money people of India like the stock exchanges. I am surprised that this is the first 300C SRT8 automobile especially since that is the home of India's Bollywood, which is bigger than Hollywood..

Chrysler has Record Sales Outside North America

I meant to post about this before on the general health of Chrysler from inar.de/en/business/ "Chrysler has achieved record sales outside North America in 2007 (238,218 units), outselling any previous year in the Company's history. This was an increase of 15 percent compared with total year sales in 2006, and set another record for the company with more than two and a half years of consecutive month-over-month sales growth. For the month of December, sales grew six percent (22,004 units) compared to the same month last year.
"On behalf of our leadership team, I would like to extend my personal thanks and appreciation to Chrysler's International network for a very strong 2007," Bob Nardelli, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said. "This impressive performance in markets outside North America is a great demonstration of what can be done when all of our employees, dealers, distributors and suppliers come together enabling Chrysler to accomplish something this company has never done before."

More on future of 300C

What would happen to the 300C if this is followed through. Now that General Motors Corp. has been in talks for two months with DaimlerChrysler AG about acquiring all of the troubled Chrysler Group and folding its operations into GM, according to people familiar with the discussions. Together, GM and Chrysler accounted for 11.8 million vehicles sold in 2006. How many 300C's ? Their combined U.S. market share would exceed 35 percent. And their status as American icons would make a combination of the two a historic event in the history of the U.S. auto industry.
