300 warnings
The driver's seat is imposssible to configure comfortably for a person of 5'6". The rear and front windows are very small. In the rear view mirror you can see both the roof of the car and the top of the back seat instead of the road. The car guzzles fuel and hates to accelerate or brake without PLENTY of warning. It plows through snow as long as there is no ice anywhere under or near it. On ice under snow yesterday the dash showed a car with squiggly lines as it steadfastly refused to move until the eleventh steering wheel maneuver in oncoming traffic off a side street. Up until that moment, I could not understand the cars great width, which may be designed to absorb inevitable collisions.
Awful to drive in the snow
I have a 2006 300C I bought new in Nov of 05. For the most part the car is a reasonable ok car. Replaced a front strut and tires and that is about it so far. Car looks great with the Bentley grill and high speed feels like your floating on a cloud. However, without a doubt this is the worse car I have ever driven in the snow. Even with a light touch of the gas pedal reserving all this horsepower the car spins (including after I bought new high end tires for snow) and sways side to side. In the past I have ventured out in the snow only to turn around because the security that I will be able to get home or get stuck is a constant on my mine. Should have gone with the awd version.

Chrysler 300 Poor Choice
Hi - I bought a Chrysler 300 Touring Edition with 63,000 km's on it. I bought the car from a salesman friend and he swore up and down that car never missed a service and was ultra-reliable. I have owned the car for just over two years (now has 109,000 km's) and have done the following since I owned it - replaced two front end ball joint and two front end control arms - replaced alternator - replaced battery - serpentine belt "exploded" had to be towed. The front left wheel bearing had to be replaced. ERG valve replaced.Knuckle joint is gone in the steering column. I can't buy the joint must buy the entire steering column at a cost of over $900.Air conditioning compressor replaced.LEMON LEMON
Mediocre
This Vehicle is overrated.Lots of little things missing that I had in my previous vehicle (2002 Grand marquis) Road noise is excessive.
Nice Commuter Car
It's a nice car......has some wear and tear on the seats in the interior....lots of little dents on the body...maybe from hail? It's a good commuter car which is why I bought it.
