Magnum, and the SRT version, of course. I will take mine in Red please.

Re: Which LX car is your favorite?

Know what is funny? Yesterday I was behind a Ford Crown Victoria with a 300 Touring (or base) also ahead of me, in the lane next to the Vic. I realized that I MUCH prefer the conservative but clean looks of the Crown Vic (at least from behind) to the oddly shaped, squashed greenhouse and slab-sided 300. Of course, the 300 is a much more advanced automobile, but just from a styling standpoint, I still can't get into it. From the rear or rear 3/4 view, the 300 just has a weird, squatted look, like a turtle or something. It is hard to describe I guess. It is a little better in the Hemi cars, with the bigger wheels, but it is still there.

But to answer the question, I'm not sure anymore. I like the idea of the Magnum, but the rear windows are too slim, and the front end is hideous. I thought I hated the Charger, but in some colors, from some angles, with decently large wheels, it isn't quite as lame looking as I originally thought (but still pretty lame). I guess the answer to the poll would be: None, I want the SRT-8 version of the 300C or the Magnum. These cars actually are so thick looking that the 20s look good on them (not to mention the extra WIDTH of those wheels). Oh, and there is also the issue of 425 hp. In normal form, I suppose it's a toss-up between the 300C and the Magnum hemi, and I might have to give the nod to the Magnum for the extra utility of the wagon body. When sitting inside any of them, I can't see the ugliness of the exterior styling (of course, thanks to the high sill and squashed greenhouse, and the 11ft tall dashboard, I can't see much of anything else either! ).
