Great. Yet another car to compete with something else they already make. Does anyone else think this strategy is a bit stupid?[&:]
Yes..... but since when did potential customer's opinions matter?

What you saw (300C wagon) is ONLY for the Europe market. In Europe, the Dodge brand is still not accepted as a brand of interest, so DCX uses the Chrysler name plate for the sedan and wagon body.

DCX is not GM, in terms of rebadging everying that looks the same and selling it at different dealerships. (like new Saab suv, envoy, trailblazer, new subaru suv, olds....)

Huh?? What about the Chrysler 300 and Dodge Charger, Chrysler Town and Country and Dodge Caravan? The list goes on and on. All car companies with more than one brand do it. There is no way around it. They would be foolish to spend all that money creating a different platform for every vehicle. Audi and VW do it as well. Honda and Acura, Toyota and Lexus, Nissan and Infinity. How profitable would Lexus be if the ES330 wasn't a rebadged Camry?

Looks sharp as ever, both the Ram and wagon. Do they run the same price as the Magnum?

What U.S. laws are stopping me from driving to Canada and buying one of these? ( for real I am not trying to sound like asmart ***, is there anything stopping me from doing this? )
