And my favourite luxury cab on the island of Singapore as well as the only American 4 door sedan that I (kind of) fancy gets a total redesign for 2011. The Chrysler 300 sedan gets a whole new exterior and interior and will be officially unveiled at the upcoming North American International Auto Show 2011 (NAIAS) this January.

 

From what we can tell the car gets a more rakish design. The grille, windscreen is more sloped than before and the whole car seems to be more hunkered down with a stance ala Maserati Quattroporte/BMW F01 7 Series instead of looking like a Bentley Arnage clone. Of course, some Bentley aping still remains, albeit done in good taste.

 

The interior gets better materials and looks good with blue lighting. Wodd looks real too and it seems more continental (European) rather than plasticky American.

 

The engines that will be available upon launch over in America are the 3.6liter V6 (292bhp/353Nm torque) and the 5.7liter HEMI V8 (370bhp/536Nm). Both engines transmit power to the rear wheels via a 5 speed automatic transmission. I suppose a diesel will follow for sales in the UK and Europe where the 300 does decently well.

 

It does look pretty good, with the right amount of

Chrome surrounds for the rear lights? In 2011? Joke!! BTW, there is at least one current model Hemi in SG.

  • A 20-year journey, an old passion rekindled

    For us 90s babies, the Holy Trinity of Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, and Cartoon Network formed a big part of our childhood. The internet was just about coming into fruition, with the rise of a plethora of websites with numerous entertaining flash games and of course, the early days of YouTube. And though those things have come and gone, one thing in my life remained constant: My love for Pokemon. I first got into Pokemon 20 years ago, and I remember exactly how it went down. Let me set the

    The Joys of Morning Walks

    Like most other folks stuck in the rut of smartphone-hyper-use, I recently caught myself doing the same each morning: Waking up to immediately reach for my phone. Reflecting on the first quarter of the year, however – and realising that I’ve been subconsciously plunged into an extended bout of languidness – brought me to the realisation: Perhaps it's time to embrace a different routine. One that started with stepping outside into the crisp morning air, and feeling the gentle warmth of

    Cordless vacuum cleaners: A young adult's best friend?

    Every young adult probably arrives at the same point when they’ve started working for a few years: Household chores start to become more enjoyable. Don’t get me wrong – they don’t have to be one’s favourite activity on earth. But chores start to make sense: An environment that’s put-together is always a welcome haven, whether it’s returning home after a long day out, or simply staying in over the weekend (or when you’re working from home.) As a young adult myself, I've come to appreciate an

    Journey to the West: First Steps in Southwestern China, Pt. 2

    Note: Click here to read Pt. 1, where the journey began in Hong Kong. NEXT UP: CHONGQING Day 3, cont.: Dad had decided on the scenic route to Chongqing - train. We did not realise that the immigration process at the Hong Kong Kowloon West station involved both the Hong Kong and Chinese authorities, so we found ourselves in a rush to board the train (we boarded minutes before the scheduled departure). Through the eight-hour journey, the passing sights made me realise the diversity
