consumers wished upon a car in the "Ask Dr. Z" Dream Car

in a brand new car, courtesy of DaimlerChrysler. An extension of

who could drive home in a Dodge Challenger, Chrysler Sebring or
Jeep(R) Wrangler Unlimited. Contestants entered the sweepstakes
online at http://www.askdrz.com/ after visiting a Chrysler, Jeep or
Dodge showroom between Aug. 15 and Sept. 4. "The 'Ask Dr. Z' Dream
Car Sweepstakes leveraged the momentum created by the 'Ask Dr. Z'
campaign and generated additional Web site and showroom traffic,"
said George Murphy, Senior Vice President - Global Brand Marketing,
Chrysler Group. "Consumers across the country have expressed their
excitement about our new product line, and we're thrilled to award
nine consumers with the vehicles of their dreams." The winners of
an all-new Dodge Challenger are Brenda Freeman of Jasper, Ga.;

percent of the entrants registered to win the all-new Dodge
Challenger, followed by the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited at over 24
percent and the Chrysler Sebring at about 20 percent. In addition,
more than half of the entries requested additional information on
Chrysler Group products. Ask. Dr. Z Campaign The Dream Car
Sweepstakes was the second phase of Chrysler Group's "Ask Dr. Z" ad
campaign that focused on consumer benefits of the best of American
and German Engineering and Design -- and specifically on the
innovative design, quality, reliability, performance and fuel
economy of Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge vehicles. The campaign's
spokesperson was DaimlerChrysler Chairman Dieter Zetsche. In the
first six weeks of the campaign, there were more than 600,000
visitors to the Web site and more than 4.2 million questions were
answered. Dodge Challenger Unprecedented public response to the
Dodge Challenger Concept resulted in Chrysler Group announcing in
July that after nearly 35 years, the Dodge Challenger will return
as the ultimate modern American muscle coupe. Set to debut as a
2008 model in calendar-year 2008, the Challenger will feature the
long hood, short deck, wide stance and two-door coupe body style
that distinguished the iconic Challengers of the 1970s. Chrysler
Sebring With the all-new 2007 Sebring, Chrysler is creating
inspiration in the common car. An all-new mid-size sedan, Chrysler
Sebring combines stunning design with interior craftsmanship, high
levels of safety and reliability, exhilarating performance and
excellent fuel efficiency -- all at the surprisingly affordable
starting price of $18,995 (including a $675 destination charge).
Sebring also features many class-leading technologies not available
in the mid-size segment. Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Featuring a
one-of-a-kind, four-door open-air design, the all-new 2007 Jeep
Wrangler Unlimited expands the Jeep experience to new dimensions.
With room for five adult passengers -- a Wrangler first -- and the
most cargo space ever offered in a Wrangler, the Unlimited offers
even more comfort and space, even more versatility, even more
open-air options, even more off-road capability, even more on-road
refinement, even more power and fuel efficiency, and even more
convenience and safety features. The Manufacturer's Suggested
Retail Price of the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is $20,410 (two-wheel
drive) and $22,410 (four-wheel drive), including $660 for
destination. DATASOURCE: Chrysler Group CONTACT: Carrie McElwee,
