Used 2006 Chrysler 300 Consumer Reviews
my first 4 door grown up car
my only disappointment was fuel economy. It's is the most comfortable car I've ever owned. my back is even improving....
Best Car I've Owned
I bought a 2005 300-C. The dealer loaded it up with everything plus some of their own add-ons to boost their profit. That bothered me. Everything else is better than I expected. I still have my 300M but this is a totally different experience. This is without a doubt the nicest car I've owned. Get compliments all the time. Ride is smooth, quiet and I feel the car is firmly on the road at any speed. Have driven in mountains and handling is great. Complaints: Paint quality needs improvement. I have "Orange Peel", rear view mirrow blocks visibility while turning right. Car has tendency to track to right or left with slightest crown in roadway

Fun Drive: Great Road Trip Vehicle
First road trip was a blast from the city to the country. Vehicle handled the interstate with ease, providing a comfortable drive over the hills and winding roads. Very capable for passing and handles well. Vehicle cabin was roomy and made for a comfortable driver and passenger ride. Full economy did not fully meet expectations. However, did drive the recommended speed limit. Overall average was 18mpg. Never noticed when or if the engine went from 8 to 4 cylinder operation. The trunk proved to be roomy enough to handle all the luggage for three people. Over the course of a 500 trip, grew to love the performance and handling of the vehicle. Missed the upscale luxury interiors.
Watch Out
The 300 is a very pretty car to look at but, if you want a car that will stand up in performance and, reliabilty I wouldn't advise you to get a 300. I've had my car almost two years, I get my regular services however my car sounds and performs terrible. The transmission do not change smoothly and, its extremly loud. My tire went flat and, I was told I have a slow leak in the rim that can't be fixed which mean I have to buy a new rim at $400. If you have a choice please do not get a 300.
I'm thrilled with it
This car is super fast, I've had it up to 135 and I've been told the govner kicks in at 155. It's also smooth and quiet to drive. Mine is a 2005, they will come down on a 05 but they want full sticker price on a 06, I paid $300 over invoice. This is also my first non-GM vehicle.
We Love Our Hemi!
We've only had the car for 12 days,and can't say enough good things about it. It's whisper-quiet, smooth over the bumps, has great amenities, and it looks great! Gas mileage has been in the low 20's, including time sitting in the driveway reading the manual & figuring out the gadgets. The navigation system is light-years better than our 2004 Town & Country (guess we need to update our disc for it). Love the EVIC with its multitude of informative screens and its easy-to- set "personal settings" option. Rain-sensing windshield wipers are excellent (a feature we've never had before); roomy trunk is terrific; all the "toys" are lots of fun (and helpful). Can't beat the Hemi!
love my 300c
in the nine months that i have owned it i have had no problems except for trying to learn how to operate all the gadgets and dodads,the only thing i might complain about is mph and i knew mhat i 3was getting when i bough it
E55amg substitute
Outstanding muscle car performance in a beautiful and sophisticate 4 dr sedan package with all the creature comforts for under $50K! It does not get any better and you save at least $30K over what the E55AMG would set you back. So it takes premium and gets about 12 mpg in town. Not a great price to pay for so much fun.
Chrysler 300 M
Excellent experience. Different design. It has the features of an expensive european car, but not the price. Powerfull Hemy motor. Seats are great.
Nice car, needs a few refinements.
Finally, got my 300C. Excluding back seat DVD and Sirius (n/a in Canada), it is fully loaded. It's been fun 3 days. Plenty of power. Effortlessly accelerating and passing other cars. Quiet. I owned 2 300Ms and moved to 300C thanks to Chrysler's pull forward program or it would be another 6 months in 300M. I also shopped BMW 5 series, but did not want to pay extra and wait another 6 month in the old car. Attractive design, but car feels a little bit bulky in the front (especially when cornering) as I can see hood's corners. I had no problems with visibility, but it takes a bit to get used to boxy design when parking. Shows 14l/100km mostly highway driving. Hoped for less, but no complaints.
