Chrysler 300C cars autographed by stars To Be Auctioned for Haiti victims

Now this is pretty cool, curious as to how it turns out.

At the recent Golden Globe Awards ceremony, all stars present (300 to be precise) autographed a special edition "eco style" Chrysler 300C. The Chrysler Group LLC exhibited this car at the entrance of the Beverly Hilton Hotel and will soon auction it to raise money for the Haitian people. The company estimates the autographed car will fetch $1million!  via luxurylaunches.com

Cool!! on top of that !!

Furthermore, Chrysler brand together with the Dick Clark Productions company has also partnered with 'Stars for a Cause' to donate six eco-friendly cars to be auctioned to selected charities proposed by the stars. The stars, Meryl Streep, Christina Aguilera, Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hanks, Felicity Huffman and Colin Firth arrived at the Golden Globe ceremony in the 6 limited edition Chrysler 300C cars.

The eco friendly car is made of environmentally friendly materials including cork, bamboo, jute, recycled carpet etc. Each star will auction and donate the 300C that accompanied him/her at the event to an organization of their choice.

Damm good idea

300C one of the best vehicles of the decade

Scott Burgess from the Detroit News had a article  of  'The best and worst vehicles of the decade'
for me the highlight was when he correctly said one of the BEST ! was:
""The Chrysler 300: This car still looks great on the road. That big front end and long hood, the high belt line, the powerful engine are details that prove how classics are always classics. When the 300 arrived in 2005, it proved that rear-wheel drive vehicles can still appeal to the masses. The 300C, with its 5.7-liter Hemi V-8, was the home run Chrysler needed at the time. Now, it needs another hit, but even bigger."
I couldn't agree more.

All Mayor's Should Drive a 300C

This sounds like a good town to be mayor in I do believe. The mayor feels he is saving money by driving a Chrysler300C. via inner-west-courier
STRATHFIELD[Au] Council could see its next mayor whipping around the area in a Porsche.
Last year the mayor couldn’t spend more than $40,000 on a car and former mayor Keith Kwon chose not to take one at all.
Councillors passed an amended policy on expenses last week, overriding last August’s draft policy which set the limit at the luxury car tax threshold of $57,000, or up to $75,000 for fuel-efficient cars, and setting no limit on the cost of the mayoral vehicle.
Strathfield mayor Tony Maroun defended the decision, saying the amended policy was in line with provisions under the Local Government Act and the Department of Local Government’s guidelines.
“It is important to point out that council does not have any luxury cars in its fleet,” he said.
“While the maximum price of the vehicle that can be purchased for the mayor is ... around the $57,000 mark, the Chrysler 300C I use cost $43,000, which is well inside the limit.”
Cr Maroun said his car was part of the council’s overall fleet, and considerations such as the price, running costs and greenhouse emissions were all considered as part of the purchasing decision.
Independent councillor Danny Lim said Cr Maroun should not take up the offer of a car:
“What does he want next? A helicopter?”

300C Two Tone

Sitting at the drive-in for their Saturday afternoon meet up two 300C drivers started talking to the new guy with a 2005 300C that had a rather unusual paint job. Now most paint jobs that are two toned split the upper and lower half of the auto. This one split the car in half from the top. One half of the 300C metallic red the other a lite purple. .
My buddy said "Hey," asked one, "why did you paint one side of your chrysler red and the other side purple?"

"Well," the other responded, "when I get into an accident, you should see how all the witnesses contradict each other."
