Dodge Magnum Force
Dateline: November 3, 2004

Las Vegas, Nevada � The Dodge Magnum Force by Performance West Group was chosen by DaimlerChrysler for the coveted Design Excellence Award at the 2004 SEMA Show. The award was presented by Dennis Mylers, Senior Manager of the Dodge Truck Studio.
The 2005 Dodge Magnum Force is the red hot new sport wagon created by Performance West Group. Drawing inspiration from its race bred relative, the Viper GTS/R Concept, the Magnum Force features a dramatic restyling package by RK Sport that matches heart stopping good looks with heart pounding performance.

The excitement begins the minute you spin the ignition key an awaken the Kenne Bell enhanced 16 plug HEMI engine. Singing its siren song through a low restriction custom dual exhaust by Doug�s Headers, the Magnum Force balances tire smoking power with a tuned suspension engineered by Hotchkis Performance. Insuring fade free stops from high speed are Stainless Steel Brakes Tri Power billet calipers mated with 12.5� slotted and ventilated rotors. Rolling stock consists of Oasis 22� modular forged wheels matched with Dunlop SP Sport 9000 ultra performance tires.
The Viper themed exterior is smothered in dazzling Viper Red Glasurit 55 Line by BASF, accented with silver LeMans stripes artfully applied by Mike Face. Inside, the race inspired cockpit features a Hurst Shifter for precise shifting of the five speed transmission, a Katzkin custom leather and suede interior, 4 point harnesses by Summit, carbon fiber trim accents by Woodview and monogrammed carpet mats by designer Mat. And, just in case you follow the stars at night as you speed down the Mulsanne Straight, there is a totally unobstructed view thanks to an Inalfa Panorama Moonroof that measures nearly 3x3�.
Add it all up and you�ve got the Dodge Magnum Force, the street lethal sport wagon. Armed with nothing less than a ground pounding Hemi engine, it�s complemented by a chassis with just the right mix of components to harness its power. The Magnum Force looks like a wolf in wolfs clothing, because it is. This is one vehicle that speaks loudly and carries a big stick. Mess with the Magnum Force at you own risk.

The 300C Hurst Edition features the latest in innovation and refinement. The engine that is the heart of the 300C has been equipped with a wide range of enhancements, including a Magnaflow Performance cat back dual exhaust that literally and figuratively pumps up the volume of the HEMI V-8. Balancing the power of the Chrysler 300C Hurst Edition are Stainless Steel Brakes Tri Power three piston billet calipers working in concert with large 13.5 inch drilled and slotted rotors, ensuring that it can stop as quickly as it accelerates. Complementing the brake upgrades are modular 22� Oasis Forged Wheels, Toyo Proxes S/T directional tires, lowered suspension by Eibach and stiffer anti sway bars by Hotchkis Performance.

In a tribute to the 1970 Chrysler 300 Hurst, the exterior is finished in House of Kolor White Pearl, accented with Hurst Gold Pearl.

The unmistakable Hurst Shifter that actuates the five speed transmission offers the opportunity to enjoy effortless driving or precise hands on gear changing, while a Katzkin hand crafted custom leather interior mirrors the theme established on the exterior, offering a sumptuous, refined environment that befits a vehicle of this caliber.
While it pays homage to the original C 300, the Chrysler 300C Hurst Edition is totally modern, and showcases the latest in automotive technology. The result is a genuine American big bore HEMI V-8 rear wheel drive automobile that will ignite the passion of millions of classic performance enthusiasts while singing its siren song to a new generation. The 300C Hurst Edition is more then a legend revisited; it marks the return of the authentic high performance Chrysler.
