Those Mopar loving 'Stang designers are okay. Keeping nearly 150 Mopars 
(or any brand) going is a challenge! :) 

The 2005 Chrysler 300C SRT-8 has 425-horsepower via a 6.1-liter HEMI 
V-8. The memory connection is to the 60's 426 Hemi's advertised as 
425-horsepower (but making more in reality).

If they brought back a pushbutton shifted 300C SRT-8 I'd look into 
buying. ;-) 

Havn't seen any TV ads, but the theme to the 60's is there in the 
Charger promo, which emphasizes muscle cars, NASCAR, & HEMI:  

"2006 Dodge Charger
Out of the past and into the future

    * Modern coupe styling with four-door functionality hits streets and 
racetracks this spring
    * Dodge pays homage to muscle cars of '60s, but adds 21st century 
performance, safety and technology
    * Of course, it's got a HEMI®!"

Are they trying to milk the past the way they did with the 300?
