Anyone! Looking at the V8s. Are they comfortable (Passengers) Are they pigs to park! Do they handle well! Its this or a V8 5 Series, just not sure on the "Chrysler" brand of today.
TIA

seen as a bit 'try-hard' by many, starting to be seen at the better houses in Mangere & Otara.

Its based on the rear-wheel drive Chrysler LX platform with somecomponents derived from the W211 Mercedes-Benz E-Class. The SRT-8 is the performance model. It wont handle as well as a similar spec Commodore or Falcon but still worthy of a look.

Have had one since new in April 2003, diesel. Very economical, comfortable and smooth to drive. Heated seats are a bonus. Have had no problems at all. Two friends in Australia were so impressed they have also purchased.

I am getting the picture that most feel its not an executives vehicle.hmmm
Thanks Steve, Cuda and Fiat, its certainly about comfort an driveabliltiy, I do a lot of Kms, and am a big fella. Nothing worse than driving to Taupo, or Wellington for a big meeting looking worn out.

Apparently the suspension is 'soft' and gets damaged easily by potholes, bumps etc when going over them too fast.
