probably one of the richest vehicle manufacturers there is. And it's not because of Mercedes.

Yeah its a :repost:

And that info is old. They already have a prototype completed so now they are just seeing if they can get enough orders to go to production with it. I doubt they will but its a sweet car nonetheless :)

I dont know why, but the car looks just plain wierd with the chrysler symbol on the front... it just... doesnt match for some odd reason for me.

Chrysler is one of the only manufacturers who take concepts to production quickly with out that many changes.

Viper, Prowler, SRT-4, SRT-10, etc... just to name a few.
