Merry Chrystmas, Gang,
I'm happy everyone likes the new car. Yes I know it's not an "A" body, but to me it reminds me of my '68 Plymouth. I would like to take the time to wish everyone here a happy, healthy and safe holiday season. I will attempt to answer some of the questions that Fastback 340 had wanted to know about, First question, "Will Flowmasters fit? I'm not sure, I know that alot of the owners of the LX body (300 and Magnum) if they swap out the exhaust system on the car either use the Magnaflow or Borla catback exhaust systems. I don't plan on swapping out my exhaust system or make any modifications that would void any warranties on the car. I'm not sure about the bolt pattern spacing either, I know I have 5 lugs per wheel, and the wheels are the base steel wheels with bolt-on plastic wheel covers, The tires are 17 inch Goodyear Integrity tires. As far as a big block, I'm sure if you could classify the HEMI engine a big block at 5.7 liters, and at an extra $10K-15 to install a crate HEMI engine, I really don't even need all that power. I know alot of you guys are power hungry , but I don't want to stop at every other gas station to fill up the tank.
I ordered the car back in early November, and it arrived on 12/6 at the dealer. I was originally quoted about 6-8 week wait, but it came in less than a month. My hat is off to the assembly team that manufactured the car in Brampton, Ontario Canada. The picture I posted, is of an identical car to what I own, minus the license plate bracket. I haven't had time to take actual pictures of the car due to all the holiday preparations. After the holidays, I hope to get some good pictures of the car. When I do, I will post them for the group.
I also want to say, even though I now have a new 300, I won't abandon the group by any means, You guys have helped me out on numerous occasions, when I didn't know what to do. I thank everyone for all of the help and support that you have given me since I joined the board, when I purchased my first car, the '68 Plymouth. I will definitely keep in touch, and I hope everyone will do the same!
Happy Holidays,
Brian T. Carotenuto
