My grandfather used to love Imperials. He would switch out every four years so he would have the newest model. I wonder if he would like this one. It looks pretty sweet, but I'm not sure about those suicide doors.

Didn't they used to have suicide doors in the 60's?



I'd love to have one of those old boats, as well as one of these new ones. I'll bet your grandfather would like the new ones too!
 
Gavin, I only remember the late 60s, since I was born in 1962. I know the early 1960 Continental had suicide doors, but I'm not sure about the Imperial. Maybe I'm not so old afterall. :)
 
I think it looks OK, except the rear. It almost looks like a pushmepullyu (remember Dr Doolittle?). If it were backing up, it would look like it is going forward. It looks almost like a magnum, as well.
 
Dive..all of them should look similar, they are all built on the same platform. In Europe, there is even a 300 wagon, takes place of the Magnum.



It looks a lot like a Rolls-Royce Phantom to me...which isn't really a good thing. Awfully big and bulky. American car companies need to look to the Germans if they want to know how to make a big car look not-so-big.
 
lol, yeah..I didn't pick up on it. But just in case others didn't know....



I like the 300C. Wouldn't get one because they are WAY to popular around my parts. Even modified ones. I don't like having a "me too" type of vehicle, and that's what the 300 seems like.
