Great car until srevice engine light came on. Oil 1 quart low, take into dealer to find car needs a camshaft positioner, get that fixed and dealer then shows me oil puddles below intake manifold and cylinder heads plugged with sludge. Car need new design cylinder heads, valves, etc $2500. Chrysler says "out of warranty, sorry for you" 1st and last Chrysler product.

I've driven this fine car for 3 years and have no unusual maintenance needs (only" oil changes; Brake Pads and Tires at 40,000). I've enjoyed the Interstate Highway and secondary road competence. The only worry I have is the natural tendency to exceed any speed limit! Some Tram Line agravation when I purchased this care was acutally loose lug nut related! (resolved with torque wrench check). I love driving this car in the warm months - It stays mostly garaged in the winter as the tires "Michelin Pilot Sports" are not good in snow (and you are so warned when you buy these tires). This M is special.

Great looking car both inside and out, nice dash and I liked the style it has. That is where is all stops, I road noise is like driving a pick up truck, you feel every bump and crack in the road, very disappointing in these area. Fuel ecomomy has run 20 combine highway and city, I thought that would be better for a V6, inside is comfortable, the AC is bad also, but everything is black inside, another mistake, rotor's are always rusting and making a mess on the garage floor. In short I can not wait until I get back to a Lincoln, have not had a Chrsyler for 32 years and hope never to have another

I bought this car out of frustation because I had looked at so many. I bought the wrong car. Pretty expensive, lousy milage, and not the highway car that I needed. Having said that, it is a very good car. Handles great, fast (too fast?), roomy, room for 2 + golf bags in the trunk but noisey from road noise. OEM tires lasted 20,000 at $300/each. All in all next time I'd buy somethink else. Mopar fans probably love it, I don't.

I've owned my 300M Special for 2
years. I gave me a compromise between
having a fun car to drive and being
able to haul the family around.
Service from the dealership has been
great with one exception. They didn't
do a thorough review of the car before
it was delivered to me. The air didn't
work

We bought this car for roadtrips and
it performs quite well in that
respect. Mileage is a little
concerning around town (~18mpg) but on
the hwy is quite nice (~26mpg). This
car is soooo smooth and powerfull its
almost too easy to speed. But whats
with the 110mph speed limiter? My
biggest gripe with the 300M is in its
interior quiality. Cheap plasic
pieces that dont quite fit together
produce annoying rattles in the dash,
doors and headliner. Maybe Chrysler
should speak to the folks at Audi
about this issue... Overall a good
touring car for those who like high
speeds and a roomy comfortable
interior.

car has space of a vehicle twice its
size and drives like a car half its
size.
Overall very fun to drive. Handles
great for its size. Auto-stick is fun
but takes some getting used to.
visibility over truck is very limited.

We really liked the styling, inside
and out. Very roomy. The engine has
good pickup. The road noise is near
intolerable--the Firebird we had
before this car had wind noise, the
300M has *road* noise and it is loud.
The stereo is okay and really like
having 10 radio presets. Gas mileage
is poor. Visibility to the rear (out
the window and in the mirrors) is very
poor. Headlights flicker slightly when
pressing on the brakes. Mirror toggle
switch broke early on (repaired under
warranty). Glovebox plunger switch was
so strong as to push out glovebox door
slightly--over a couple of months it
warped the door!
No major complaints--just lots of
little ones.

Great car. Handles well, has plenty of
power, no performance problems at all.
The auto-stick feature allows the car
to be driven like a sports car with a
four speed transmission. Great for
driving in the mountains!
Chrysler issued a fix for the sound
system at my insistance that something
was wrong. Initially, little or no
bass response, but after the fix, no
problem!
I'd highly recommend this car to anyone
that wants a European styled sedan, at
an affordable American price.
