It was announced January 29, 2010 that a special edition Chrysler 300C signed by about 300 celebrities who attended the Golden Globe Awards last week will be auctioned February 20. Chrysler brand, in collaboration with the Hollywood Foreign Press, Dick Clark Productions and Stars for a Cause, is handing over the keys of a Chrysler 300 Haiti edition to the charitable organization, Stars for a Cause.
According to Chrysler, "all proceeds benefiting the American Red Cross Haiti Relief efforts. The Eco Style design uses recycled or sustainable materials, such as recycled rubber for the floor mats, bamboo wood interior, 100% recycled metals, and includes a fuel efficiency system that reduces the 8 cylinder engine to 4 cylinders when necessary. The eco style features the following: seat inserts in contrasting color, black chrome door trim, aluminum Billet pedal covers, sill plate, 20" black chrome wheels, projector headlamps, tinted and photo etched tail lamps. The car has been slightly lowered and bears black chrome Chrysler wing badge and deck lid, black chrome door handles, bumper appliques and exhaust tip. Fully equipped including moonroof and satellite radio."
"It is our social responsibility to assist in any way we can to help contribute to the relief efforts," said Olivier Francois, President and Chief Executive Officer – Chrysler brand, Chrysler Group LLC. "Hundreds of celebrity signatures now grace the exterior of the Chrysler 300 Haiti edition thanks to the actors and actresses [who attended] The 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards, and we are hopeful the car will raise a significant amount of money at auction, which will be given to the American Red Cross for their Haiti relief efforts."
