Put a turbine engine in it, and I'd buy it.

It reminds me of the Adobe from the SNL skit.

Patrick Schalk Jan 18, 2013
Ah. I like the wheels. That's about it though. The front has WAY too much chrome for my taste.

Jacob Burford Jan 17, 2013
My eyes hurt!

It would have made more sense for them to do the Dart since the turbine was what inspired the early Darts/Valiant styling cues.

They didn't build a car with a turbo back in the day. They build a car with a (turbine) a jet engine

Looks good.

Jordan Nishida Jan 17, 2013
Interesting, I didn't know that Chrysler built a car that had a turbo back in the day.

Jason Bartlett Jan 17, 2013
Blah . Turbine car is absolutely awesome . This is unnecessary . Some paint and rims slapped on a 300 c ....wow! Talent at dodge for sure

Tyler Tarbox Jan 17, 2013
Wow this is awesome. Doesn't even really look like a Chrysler anymore. More of a super luxury brand

Brendon Davis Jan 17, 2013
I agree with Brandon. The color is great. As for the rims, it's not really working for me. I think I would like it a bit more if they were smaller.

Jon Scanlan Jan 17, 2013
That is a piss poor effort of a classic car

Vinny Coppola Jan 17, 2013
Very nice!

Brandon Harp Jan 17, 2013
The rims are a little much, but the paint really suits this car well for some reason

Like a boss...

Geoff Novak Jan 17, 2013

Oleg Odessit Jan 17, 2013
And sell it under vacuum brand

Oleg Odessit Jan 17, 2013
Yeahh awesome, now keep the original interior to make it even better

Miguel Jimenez Jan 17, 2013
I kind of like it.

Drew Humphrey Jan 17, 2013
That's nice! Would be cool if the paint was a little less matte and more glossy/metallic though

Colt Eklund Jan 17, 2013
So much better than "blacked out rims" and the usual crap.

Jesse Jalapeno Jan 17, 2013
Ugly ass F***

Sweet

Dimitry Mikhailovich Malikov Jan 17, 2013
This car is beautiful! Love the wheels.

Drake Nailon Jan 17, 2013
I like it, but I'd like it more on a gloss metallic bronze.

Dan Marino Jan 17, 2013
Oh....my.....god. This....is.....amazing

Description: It may not be powered by a turbine engine, but it still pays homage to the original with its "Turbine Bronze" matte-finished exterior paint and a black roof. Other unique touches include 22-...

Lame, it's a turd-ine

Exactly ben

How is this a 300S Turbine if it is not a turbine?

Ashton Summers Jan 17, 2013
Just drop a PT-6 under the hood. How hard could it be. That's an easy 450-1600 hp depending on tune.

David Bradley Jan 17, 2013
If its going to pay tribute to a turbine, then it should be a turbine

Jackson Michael Jan 17, 2013
Damn that would've been exciting lol

Noah Gavurin Jan 17, 2013

Scott Lenahan Jan 17, 2013

Scuttle Buttocks Jan 17, 2013
Nice tribute to a cool car good on them

Jordan Nishida Jan 17, 2013
Wow. I think it's a good car

Micah Buffat Jan 17, 2013
Rather pointless why build it no turbine it looks nothing like the original they just took one if there other models and slapped "turbine rims" on it
