The Imperial, The Luxury Car That Never Was
Chrysler has shelved plans to build a production version of the Imperial concept it introduced at the 2006 Detroit Auto Show. Citing increasing fuel costs and more stringent fuel economy standards expected from Capitol Hill, Chrysler said that the Imperial project was off, as a viable business case could no longer be made for the car.
Chrysler will still invest in the Brampton, Ontario plant that had been earmarked for Imperial production, but that focus will be on the next-gen 300 instead. Regarding the Imperial, Chrysler spokesman David Elshoff said that given the current climate, bringing the Imperial to production would have been “irresponsible.” A side benefit of the cancellation is that we will be spared the sight of the “poor man’s Phantom’s” ghastly front end on American roads.

I own a Chrysler 300C and was looking forward to trade for the imperial. I’m at a lost for words as to why this car is not being made. Trust me the people that like this car the least thing on there mind is the ghastly cost. The car speak for itself. Keep me in mind if this car ever hit the road.
