Well, not quite. Could have been though If the sales person riding with me hadn't told me to back off when I hit the bottom of the entrance ramp at 110mph. She spotted a state trooper up ahead and fortunately there was enough traffic around that he couldn't get a lock on me with his radar gun. I got a call FROM the salesman that I ordered my 300 Limited FROM on Friday that they just got a 300C in today and would I like to come in and take it for a test drive. Like, are you kidding me? I'M THERE MAN! Had to wait in line for a couple other people (and I hate lines) but it was worth it. My salesman couldn't ride with me because he had a customer come in right when my turn came so he sent a new sales person out with me for her first ride in it. I'm sure it was a test drive she'll never forget. I pulled out of the dealership parking lot and stepped on it right away. It sat us back in our seats really well. It's got more on the low end than I was expecting, especially FROM about 10mph to 40mph. I got on the freeway on a circular ramp and accelerated pretty heavily through the turn (this wasn't the ramp where I hit 110; that was on the way back) I wanted to see if I could get the electronic stability control system to kick in. I'm just curious if I can feel it. Well, it didn't and it was a free way entrance this sales gal will probably never forget. It did hold well going through the turn and while I was never worried I'm sure she and my fiance were a little concerned.All in all I was very impressed with the car. It looks even better in person than it does in pictures. It had the sound GROUP 2 in it and that really blew me away. It is the best factory sound system I have ever heard in a car. The seats are very comfortable and for those long drives FROM Milwaukee to Minneapolis I do I'm sure i"ll be happy. This thing is getting to long so I better end. Can't think straight after the excitement of actually driving one.
