Default 300C in may Car and Driver

there's a nice 5 page artical on the 300C in the may issue of car and driver, what's really impresive is the acceleration numbers they got with it.

0 - 60mph: 5.3 seconds
1/4 mile: 13.9 seconds @ 102mph
top speed: 130mph (governor limited)
70 - 0mph: 184ft
roadholding: .77g
C/D ovbeserved fuel economy: 17mpg

Sounds like if you want a real performance Mopar... you would have to shoot for the cheaper Magnum RT that has a top speed of 153mph!

unfortunatly the magnum also is governor limited to 130mph acording to car and driver, seen some other sites that have said the same thing as well, I think I even remember seeing that somewhere on dodges site, on the flash site I know they original said 153, but in another spot they said 130 I think.
