Spy Shots: Is this the 2009 Chrysler 300?

UPDATE: Professional spy photographer Brenda Priddy let us know this car is actually the 2009 Hyundai Genesis. That's why they pay her the big bucks, ladies and gentlemen. A supplier for Hyundai was likely renting time at the Chrysler tech center, or perhaps the cars featured shared technology.


A sharp-eyed poster over at GM Inside News happened to snag a shot of this mysterious sedan on Saturday morning in Auburn Hills, MI. The camo-covered car was coming out of the Chrysler tech center leading to speculation that this could be the next generation Chrysler 300. If it is, it would be as much of a departure from the current model as that was from the previous generation. The low roof gangster sedan styling is jetissoned in favour of something much more contemporary and potentially bland. After the disaster that was the new Sebring, maybe Chrysler has decided to play it safe with the LX replacement. Has anyone else seen this car, or have any information on it?
