Smaller?
The Chrysler 300 WB was 115 inches while the Buick Wildcat and the Olds were both 123 BUT... the Chrysler was 215.3 inches in length compared to the Buick's 215.7 and the Old's 215.3.

Don't know where you got the smaller from.

Smaller? by Thomas Struckman #42579.10.1.1.1
Thomas, as I stated, perhaps it's all in perception. The two GM cars are by George Schire #42579.10.1.1.1.1
