I look good driving this car. Ok, I look good
driving any car. I drove this car with the billet silver metallic clear coat
exterior and black ambassador blue interior with leather trim and 6-way power
passenger seat. Ha! Yes, I got some
deserved envious looks as I rolled down the street. Ok, to be honest, I don’t
know if they were looking at me or the car. For the sake of this column, I’m
going to say it was the car!
All I gotta say is - when Chrysler does
something right, they really do something right. This car is all kinds of right. There are
rumors that the car may not have a long shelf life.
I don’t know why. I really like this car. No one can say it doesn’t look
good. It looks great. No one can say it doesn’t ride well. It's not a fantastic
ride because there are a few bumps here and there, but overall, the ride is mostly
smooth and fast. Yep, it’s fast. This V6 has some get up and go! The dash is convenient, easily accessible and has a simple to figure out touchscreen interface. There’s high-quality interior
material that includes the Uconnect® infotainment touchscreen system, which is
a winner! The only downside for someone over 5’9” is that there isn’t a lot of
passenger room. This is a stylish, cool-looking, easy-going, sturdy vehicle
with a great deal of personality. Me likey the 200 100%!
