Chrysler 300
This car is aging well, even though its clientele is still waiting for a total makeover. What’s more, a new version of this mid-size sedan will be offered in the first few months of 2011. Expect it to be equipped with the Dodge Charger’s new powertrains, including the 305-hp 3.6-litre Pentastar V6. It’s a big American car that will comfortably seat five passengers.
