Of all the cars I've ever owned, I would say this is this funnest car I've purchased, and like my 1987 Chrysler Fifth Avenue I had 16 years ago, this is a car I like to be in. I have a 2002 Chrysler Sebring, which I'm selling and I do consider the 2013 200 a big step up in both quality and performance, although there is noticeably less interior space in the 200 versus my Sebring, which I believe is due to the seats having more cushioning and additional airbags within the cabin. I do like this version of the 200 over the current new version. My Sebring had the 2.7 V-6, while my 200 has the 3.6. Fuel mileage is better on the freeway with the 200, but I do get less mileage in town than I did with my Sebring. Once in a while I do get some torque steer if I happen to have more of a lead foot than normal, but other than that the steering is responsive and tight. I do wish I could raise the steering wheel just a tad more than what is allowed, because it's a tighter squeeze when I have to wear steel toe boots for work and the leg room in the rear is very tight, though I rarely have rear seat passengers. So in updating this review, I downgraded the performance of the car primarily because, even after having software updates performed on the transmission 4 months ago, I still notice the transmission seeming a little confused with which gear it wants to shift to, as well as an occasional clunk while shifting. The update improved the performance, notably upon climbing hills, but still needs further improvement. I also downgraded the technology for the fact that FiatChrysler charges customers $150.00 for a navigation update disc for it's maps. That's a ripoff in my opinion. Lucky for me I kept the Garmin GPS I purchased for my old Sebring, and I can update that for free on my computer and use it in lieu of the built in system. The traction control in the 200 is great, as it helped the car up a steep ice/snow covered alleyway leading to my driveway. I've purchased new tires earlier this year and recommend the Goodyear Assurance Comfortred tires. These tires perform just as great on this 200 as they did on my Sebring, both in noise reduction and overall traction. With regards to the few complaints I have about the 200, I still like the car and it's still a fun car to drive. The flaws are noticeable, but not so much it makes for a miserable ride.

i purchase a 2013 Chrysler 200 car for my daughter because of its sporty looks. As a retired car salesman of 24 years, {many of these years with Chrysler} . i didn't buy it new, but it had very low miles on it with plenty of warranty yet left on it. my daughter call me for college complaining about the brake system. I had the brakes inspected several times by several shop, however in vein. I was informed that the brake system checked out fine and my daughter should feel save driving the car. there was no repairable solution for this problem. After the warranty expired the Thermostat Housing Kit cracked. This is a very expensive repair out of pocket. Has not been a good experience. {I still like it for its looks}

Problems with heat

When I first purchased the car there was a flapping noise in the dashboard. It turned out to be a rotator fan that broke. I thought it would go away for good once it was replaced, turns out I was wrong. I've had the car going on three years now. Every time it gets cold and I go to turn the heat on, it makes the loudest, most annoying flapping noise that continues for about two minutes. On top of that, the heat gradually gets colder on the passenger side. The first winter I had it, I paid $900 for a new heater core. That fixed it for that winter. The next winter, the problem came back. There was a warranty on the heater core, so I took it to the shop and told them the same problem was happening. They told me "its only about 5 degrees difference on the passenger side" which is a lie. When it gets icy, only the driver side of the window will defrost. I looked it up online and it turns out many other people have had the same issue with the heat not working correctly. That is the only issue I've had with the vehicle, everything else is great! If you live somewhere warm, its worth the purchase. If you live somewhere cold, absolutely NOT!

It is my wife's car and she loves it having had a smaller Neon for many years before the 200. She is short so preferred a smaller cat but has found the mid-size 200 to be just fine. I have a slightly larger 2007 Impala LTZ with a large 3.9 six in it that I really like. On the other hand, I really enjoy driving the 200 as well as it handles and rides well and has plenty of power with the 3.6 six to power it.
Forget Korean and Japanese - Thank you Detroit

I picked this car up a few days ago and I am very happy with it. Fit and finish are excellent. Very smooth and quiet ride. Great fuel economy. I chose the 4 cylinder with the auto 6 speed. It feels like a much stronger 6. Not sure why anyone would buy a Hyundai, Kia, Honda or Toyota. Great value for the money. Paid less then 19K out the door. Shop around, there are good deals out there now.
