The Chrysler 300 of Leonida. American executive sedan proportions, the rear-wheel drive V8 option, and the specific aesthetic that made the real 300C an aspirational purchase for a Vice City demographic that the German brands never captured.

Field Assessment

The PMP 700 is the American executive sedan alternative. The Chrysler 300 formula: long hood, formal upright body, rear-wheel drive, and the V8 option that makes the American executive car distinctly American. In Vice City this formula sells to a specific demographic that the German brands do not reach.

The 300 generation Chrysler was a genuine cultural moment in real Miami: the car that appeared in the hip-hop video economy at the same time it appeared in the rental fleet. The PMP 700 captures this dual-register presence.

As a Vice City vehicle the PMP 700 appears in both the legitimate business district and the less legitimate economy that Vice City's mid-level operators use as their daily driver. The car is common enough to be unremarkable and nice enough to communicate that the owner is doing adequately.
