Default OT Car of the Year

Forget the Mustang. Was watching the news and the Chrysler 300 c was
declared 'car of the year' at the Detroit Auto Show. You guessed it...it's
manufactured in Brampton, Ontario.

So what was your point in putting down the Mustang? Because John bought
one?

Personally I think the Chrysler 300 is ugly. Most Chryslers are also
plagued with mechanical problems. Are most of them made in Canada also?

At least one good thing comes from Canada!

It's an interesting looking car, sort of...looks aggressive in a
modernistic, retro kind of way. The Mustang, which also seems a pretty
cool car, apparently is Number One on the Gay Guy Shopping List.



Well, I am not gay, but I considered one until I read the write-up in
Henning's. Interestingly, I also considered the 300C. But ....

My tooling around car here in Florida is a Gen II (2004) Durango with the
"yes, it's a hemi". It is ok, has some pep and rides better than the old
Durangos. I drove it up to MA and back and then decided to take my wife's
BMW X5 that I had not driven for a while for a spin.

American cars still have a long way to go. The BMW is far superior in every
way, yet is in the same price range as the Durango. Even with a smaller 6
cylinder engine, the little Beemer rockets along. The automatic transmission
shift points are clean and crisp, unlike most American cars that slide from
gear to gear.

So, now I am kinda drooling over a BMW 545i with the sports package.

Heh Heh Heh.

Do me a favor and delete "one" and replace with "a new Mustang" in the above
sentence.

(I can hear the incomings now)

Don,
Does it have the Hemi engine? That's built in Mexico.

Bert,
Why a lot of good things come from Canada. Heck Windsor is just south of
me. :-)

Hmmmm.... owned by Germans, designed by Americans, built by Canadians and
powered by Mexicans. Does this qualify it as a "World Class" automobile?

Women, oil, natural gas or hockey players playing for American teams? Hard
to think of anything else coming from Can-duh that is worth anything.
