A NOT So Special 300MSpecial

Vehicle

2004 Chrysler 300M Special 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 4A)

Review

The AC does NOT cool the passengers in the back seats. The molding on the inside of the doors pulls away about a 1/4 inch. Not a significant amount of UMPH over the regular 300M engine.It was maketed to me as a competeitor to BMW.... NOT! It is an affordable sporty nice sounding(exhaust) car with some style. Looks good. Just though it cold have been a little more special.

Favorite Features

sound of exhaust and sharp looks

Suggested Improvements

1) Make it more "tight" in the inside. It needs to fell a bit more sold. 2) Give the engine more power. The front wheel drive might be taking that extra performance away maybe... 3) redesign the AC so the passengers in the back don't suffocate in the heat!

Problems With Design Of Car

Review

First the front end sits to low to the ground,when you pull into a parking space watch out for the cement tire stop because your bumper skirt will go over it and when you back up it hangs up and tears it loose from where it is fasten to the fender with screws and will scrape the paint off every time . The second thing there is a MAJOR SAFETY HAZZARD in this car that at the time of purchase they dont tell you about and that is until you read your owners manual will you find out it has to do with people that have pacemakers or know some one with one before riding in this vehicle, it has to do with the TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTOM.

Favorite Features

Suggested Improvements

Raise car about 2inches for clearence issue car has with front bumper. Also I think all safety hazzards should be disclosed on window stickers so not to expose an unknowing person to Death or Serious Injury from a piece of equipment that was installed on a vehicle.

Review

Whatta rocket!! This vehicle is way more than I had hoped for...design, performance, value. All the accoutrements in a top-notch piece of equipment are here. My prior vehicle was a loaded '99 Concorde and this car blows it away in most every respect. Driving this 300 is a joy I really look forward to and highly recommend the automobile.

Favorite Features

Favorite features are the sound system and accompanying controls, the rear drop seats to extend the trunk (if needed) and the overall handling of the auto.

Suggested Improvements

Improvements...lengthening the armrest on the console a bit, improvement of the spoiler design to help keep the rear of the car dusted and, of course, the introduction of a turbo or supercharger.

The most beautiful American car

Review

My 300M is Inferno Red with factory chrome wheels and a moonroof. It is the most fun car I have ever owned, and it is the best kept secret in the world. I have driven it through the mountain roads of Colorado at altitudes of over 10,000 ft. and the AUTOSTICK feature of the transmission was a fabulous tool allowing me to safely control the speed of my descent with minimal use of brakes. I have averaged 28 mpg highway and 22 mpg city, but the 3.5L V-6 is ready to sprint at any time. Chrysler has done a great job of proving that you don't have to spend $50,000 dollars to own a reliable, high performance good-looking car... and you CAN buy American.

Favorite Features

White faced analog instruments, heated leather power adjustable seats (both fronts), fog lights, chrome wheels, Inferno Red paint

Suggested Improvements

Include dual exhaust system like the Special edition on all 300M models. Don't change the body style to look like a Cadillac! If I wanted a big square brick with wheels, I would have bought one.

Review

I bought this car after driving several competing brands. I previously owned a Dodge Intrepid and loved it......so after driving the Grand Marquis and even the Maxima, I found that the 300M had just the right mix of room and performance. The Maxima is great, but doesn't have the room the 300M has, and the Marquis is good, but doesn't handle like the 300M. I'm impressed.

Favorite Features

Style, performance, quickness, interior seating...great lumbar support (I have a really bad back problem), handles well and the sound system is great.

Suggested Improvements

Don't have any yet.....just got the car last week....but overall, I would say it's a class car without the attitude. Can't wait to see the 300C! I think I'll buy that too!

Review

I accidentally bought my 300M for a number of different reasons. My intention was to get a Lexus but after driving the 300M I liked it better than than new 330 and musch better than the Infiniti. I think this is one of the best values of any car I have seen. I highly recommend this even to those who are considering the imported luxury cars. It is every bit as much car.

Favorite Features

Fun to drive. Loaded with options. Very roomy and extremely functional for business.

Suggested Improvements

Chrysler needs to market this car better. Doesn't get the xposure or credit it deserves

Review

Paint is very poor, scratch's very easily. Very areodynamic thus if you are a smoker ashes fly back into the vehicle. Lighter is very poorly placed. If you aror all the dash for a high shine you will not be able to clearly see through the windshield in sunny conditions.

Favorite Features

Tire pressure indicator, heated seats,

Suggested Improvements

Paint quality, fix dash problem or post warning to consumer.
