The 300:

In 2005, Chrysler saw the debut of the new 300 sedan, half a century after the launch of the original. This 300 Hemi C brings back rear-drive and has 340 horse power. The four-door sedan will be followed by both a coupe and convertible in upcoming years. Also redesigned for 2005, the Chrysler PT Cruiser resembles a late-'30s American sedan but has a taller body and gets better gas mileage. In the Cruiser's fifth year, Chrysler added turbochargers, and the option of a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic transmission. The Cruiser is available in convertible and SUV models, both with a standard 150 horsepower engine.

The Crossfire:

Another important release is the 2005 version of Chrysler's Crossfire. Originally designed by Erik Stoddard, a 25-year-old graduate of the Cleveland Institute of Art, the Crossfire was meant to be Chrysler's answer to Porsche Boxter, Audi TT, and Mercedes SLK. The 2005 Chrysler Crossfire SRT-6 Roadster is very stylish, and comes as a sporty coupe and a convertible. Both versions of the Roadster have a Mercedes-Benz sourced, hand-built, 330-horse powered V-6 engine and a stiffer suspension.
