2005 Chrysler Firepower

Chrysler Group’s superstar for the ’05 Chicago show was the Firepower concept, which combined taut coupe styling with a Viper-like chassis design and new 425 horsepower, 6.1-liter Hemi V-8. The result was a rear-wheel drive, grand tourer that had an estimated 0-60 mph time of less than 4.5 seconds and top speed of 175 mph. Other components included special suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, five-speed AutoStick transmission, plus 19-inch front and 20-inch rear wheels. Inside the Ocean Deep Blue two-passenger cockpit was Oyster leather and Behr maple accent, which beautifully balanced the Hydro Silver Pearl exterior.
