Today I Parked
next to a 1999-2003 300M and noticed my rims were a bit smaller. Aren't bigger rims bad for performance? No wonder those 252hp 3.5 24V'* can't perform worth sh*t.

If you want an idea just how bad the A606 trans in the LX bodies are, look for a 300M-Special. They had a beefed up 3.5L, at about 275hp, and the SSEi with 240hp is still faster.
It'* a shame because the 3.2/3.5 motors were terrific powerplants.
It was the older 2.7/3.3 engines in the first-gen Intrepids that were such crap.
