It's been quite some time (super bowl?) since I've heard Chrysler touting
their hemis. It's not completely unfair to say that the reliance on the
extra profits garnered by the highly-touted (and old-fashioned) hemi is what
has sunk Chrysler, when gas prices went to half the price of Europe.
With gas prices so low these days, I've been waiting for the gas-guzzlers to
be touted again.

American car manufacturers seem to think the trick to a fast car is
slapping a V6, V8 or 'Hemi' in it. If it looks like a duck, quacks
like a duck, handles like a duck..
