I dunno why nobody mentioned the Chrysler 300M or the Concorde.

I personaly own a 2001 Chrysler Concorde LXi and love it.

Compared to the other cars I'd driven it's nothing ground breaking, but then it's got character. Thats a lot more than I could say about the Toytoa Camry which felt like it had 2 cylinders, the Honda Accord which just seemed so generic that I wanted to cry, the Honda CRV which drove great, had awesome traction, and felt dull even when going 90 in a 25 zone. Nissan Maxima seemed like something designed by marketing using the latest ricer trends not a real engineer, Mercury Sable had some nice features but overall the styling (bubble car) was not one bit impressive.

Other cars I like. Lincoln Continental. Lincoln LS. Infinity FX. Chrysler Pacifica, Upcoming Dodge SRT-8.

The Lincolns don't look very special, but you GOT to drive them. After that you'll see why you'd want to buy a car that depreciates faster than a failed .com stock and eats more gas than a 18 wheeler. Infinity FX, despite the visible ricer trends manages to maintain style and drive great. Pacifica looks very very nice imo. Dodge SRT-8 also looks great, I love the futuristic agressive stuff.
