Does the 300b have traction control, and limited slip?? Or is it like the 95 Supercoupes, one tire fire when the TC is off?? :confused:

The 300b has traction control AND a limited slip rear end. For that matter, all Marauders have Limited slip rear's, regardless of whether or not traction control is on the car...

Positives for 300As over the 300Bs? Well, having all the extra equipment that was removed on the 300Bs, I suppose they have more "road hugging weight" :lol:

I like my 300A. It came with a full size spare! I hate donut tire.

Where did you hear negative comments about the 300A?

The only significant mechanical difference between the two is that the 300B comes with traction control, which is only a plus if you want it (I don't). The other differences are primarily in the "creature comfort" department...the 300As have remote fuel door release, separate clock, automatic parking brake release, under-hood light, full-size spare, a slight difference in the sun screening of the windshield, metal rear speaker grilles...other than a few early 300Bs that have some of the above options, the only extra creature comfort the 300B offers is heated seats...
