Default Will it mean war?

The new 300. Could this signal a real V8 war between GM and Chrysler?

What baffles me is how Daimler in its German high-and-mightyness, would even consider putting that mess on the road.

I thought new Chryslers would have a higher standard seeing that they are in bed with Daimler...(ie Mercedes)...no? or am I wrong?
