Default RE: 300c For Sale...

This is quite typical. What is sad is some people will buy a car like this because it belonged to someone famous with the thought that they can turn around and sell it for a profit which pretty much never works out that way. I'd rather have a new one honestly that has better interior, a more powerful & more fuel efficient HEMI, and has the initial bugs worked out of it. What I find amusing is that he got a Escape Hybrid as his replacement for obvious political reasons and the humorous part is I have talked to people who have Escape Hybrids and they report only 24mpg with those (which is about what V6 Escape drivers get), and our administrator has mentioned many times that his inlaws have a 300C that gets 30mpg. With the Escape, he lost power, styling, fun driving characteristics, and fuel mileage in return for positive PR.
