"         The folks at Chrysler must be ecstatic with the unexpectedly wild popularity of their 300C sedan. Beyond the large sales figures there&amp;#039;s an even more telling statistic as to how big this car is: While recently thumbing through a car culture magazine, I saw articles that showcased two of the biggest stars of the NFL, Michael Vick and Warren Sapp, each revealing their respective stable of luxury and exotic cars \u2014 and each proudly displaying his Chrysler 300C, Sapp&amp;#039;s black beauty parked right alongside his black Rolls-Royce Phantom.   The key to the SRT-8 version is its bored-out Hemi that now measures 6.1 liters in displacement compared with the standard Hemi&amp;#039;s 5.7-liter V-8. The change results in a whopping 425 bhp, up from 340.   The new 300C SRT-8&amp;#039;s exterior receives many changes, as subtle as they may be. The chin spoiler is more pronounced, as are the side skirts. There&amp;#039;s now a very slight decklid spoiler that adds a bit of muscle to the rear without being visually overbearing. And the wheel well real estate is occupied by a larger tire/wheel package consisting of 45-series Goodyear F1 Supercar tires wrapped around attractive 20-in. multi-spoke alloys.   A lowered ride height and a more taut sport suspension and large 4-piston Brembos round out the handling package.   All this for less than forty large \u2014 $39,995, including delivery and gas-guzzler tax.   Look for Detroit Editor Matt DeLorenzo&amp;#039;s First Drive in the February 2005 issue.
