I love this car more than my ex husband ( when I loved him that is). It is beautiful and sexy and everyone stares at it. It is comfortable and I love everything about it- I have it loaded. The one thing I miss and it does not have are headlight washers and smart head lights. I love to step on the gas and leave everyone in the dust. My license plate is on its way. It will be "Cagney" because "Capone" was taken as was Soprano. was taken!!!!!!

this is the fastest and quickest car i have ever owned. gas mileage is at 16mpg in every day driving.it does require premium gas. the tire pressure monitors are a real help in maintaining correct air pressure. i would like oil pressure gauge rather than searching thru the menu for it. but this is a keeper.

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

After reading so much about Mopar's old muscle, I've always wanted to own one of their legends. DaimlerChrysler's new SRT lineup, especially my new 300, is destined to be legend. I simply can't believe the performance I get with such a big vehicle! It's a night and day difference between the 5.7L and the 6.1L. Hit the gas, and you're goin' 100 MPH Before you know it! And the ride is so smooth at those speeds. My wife screamed when she saw the speedo! Mercedes has taught Chrysler a lot about comfort and styling. Overall it's just a great car, even though the gas mileage stinks.

The 300C AWD is an awesome luxury and performance car, capable of handling any kind of weather condition you throw at it. Highway driving is amazing with extreme comfort, quietness and power. At first this car gets some getting used to due to it's size and visibility. After living with it for a couple of months, you get the feel of it and it's really a pleasure to drive. The car is so solid and is very well put together. Mine is fully loaded, and the options and features are impressive. The EVIC allows customer preferred settings for almost anything and is intuitive to use. The NAV system is a bit of a toy, but certainly useful and entertaining. For the money, it's a great car.

Found a fully loaded demo at a good price. Had a 1999 300M which I loved and wasn't sure I would like the C as much as the sportier looking M. Wrong, I just love this car and if it performs like the old one (or better) I am a happy camper. The ride is so smooth, and the poer of the Hemi when you want it is fantastic. Very comfortable driving and as passenger (not in that seat too often though). Have the satellite, GPS, VES, etc. and complete the comfort of the drive. Only complaint I had was from passenger in back due to viewing out front.

I can actually say that driving is fun again! I traded my '04 330ci in on the srt and havn't had a minute of regret. The ride is reasonably comfortable considering the 20" wheels and lowered height. Of course it doesn't handle like the BMW but who cares! I have pushed it a little off the line and had to let up right away as I don't want to buy tires just yet! I can't wait until it is broken in. It is the ultimate sleeper! Why would anyone want to buy foreign again.

The day after trading an '01 M5 for this SRT8, my stomach was in knots of anxiety, but no more. I'm crazy about this car! It has tons of features, is built well, and looks fantastic! It doesn't have the quality materials as the BMW, but it's so much less expensive. I expect this car to be much cheaper to own and repair, the Bimmer was horrific.

I always liked unique things. The 300C with its break-away styling and powerful engine fills the bill. This is a fun car in every way. I drive 64 miles each day and the 300C is a pleasure to drive. The ride is comfortable and the sound system with with Sirius shortens the trip. As an original member of the rock and roll generation (now in my 60's) I couldn't afford a muscle car back then, but I can now and I'm loving it. If all you want is transportation don't buy this car - get an Avalon. My wife has 2005 Avalon and she would rather drive my car, but I won't let her!

Great performance. Great car. Vast improvement over Chryslers of the past. The only problem that I have (a minor one) is that when you stomp on the gas pedal, the engine almost red lines before the transmission shifts.

Love the car, its a comfortible ride and quiet. Our friends love the car and remark how well built it is. One such remark was "wow, a real grown-up car." The color is awesome (silver) plenty of head space as my father-in- law remarked. He is 6ft3in. A big trunk space also. The seats lay down for more space. Like the grip of the steering wheel also.

Purchased to replace a BMW 740 returned on lemon law. Paid a little over half the price of a new beemer. Four months after purchase my wife and brother bought the same car, different colors of course. Love the ride, performance lacks ZERO. ESP is great in Ohio winter. The Rear parking sensors have been a blessing in parking garage. I have never filled out one of these questionaires but with the price of this car I feel compeled to "spread the word" Great Job! If this car wore a bage from Europe it would easily sell for over $100,000.00. A steal at 45k

Ear to ear grin every time I climb inside to drive. Jaw dropping looks with blood thirsty power. Traded in our 05 300c for this beast. This car is a true joy. Class and brute strength beautifully combined. Holds 4 sets of golf clubs and 4 passengers with comfort. This car has unmatched performance/value. Unfortunately, 425 hp is addictive, only makes me want even more so we are trading in our 06 Pacifica for a new Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8, the SUV version on this car. Never thought I would own Chrysler. They have really outdone themselves with this car. Car feels like a tank for safety, Benz for comfort, 'vette for performance (and fuel economy of course).

Purchased my first new Chrysler in 1965. Between then and now I have had two Pontiacs, three Fords and fourteen more Chryslers. My present 2006 is clearly the overall winner.

If you grew up in the 60's as I did then this is the ultimate driving machine. The SRT8 is truly a new age muscle car. Recent trip from Columbia, SC to Lewisville, IN 1404 mile round trip. The SRT8 was great, handling through the turns couldn't be better, and the power is fantastic. Averaged 20 mpg. Not bad for this much horse power. Purchased a 2005 Chrysler 300C last June the 340 hp was okay, but the SRT8 425 is awesome!

I love my 2006 Chrysler 300L! It is beautiful to look at, so comfortable to ride in and the highway mileage can't be beat. When traveling over 50 mph on the road, put it in cruise. Chrysler has built in a mechanism that shifts my vehicle from a 6 cylinder to a 4 cylinder and I get 460 miles to the tank! The only complaint I have is that the engine is kinda loud for a luxury car. But it definitely has POWER and COMFORT. I love, love, love my beautiful car! Silvia, El Paso, TX

When i bought 300 limited, it was like love in first sight. I was waiting for the Avalon though, but when i heard the horrible problems of the Avalon, i decided to go buy the 300. The 300 looks very superior in looks and luxury to the avalon. I hope all of you buy the 300.

An incredible automobile. I've owned Lexuses, Infinitys, Porsches, Caddys, Lincolns, Jaguars and this car is right there amongst the best for half the price. Faster than all, not quite as quiet, but I'd ride to Virginia and enjoy the trip all the way. A magnificent auto.

I've owned more than 40 cars of all types but never driven something like this. Unending thrust, great handling, stunning looks. This is a two ton sedan that can run with the most powerful muscle cars ever built and take my three kids to school in comfort. I waited over a year to get the car, had it 9 months, and still do that look over the shoulder thing as I walk away from it in the parking lot.
I love this car

If you want the best of both American (Chrysler) and European (Mercades) engineering, buy this car. The look is bold yet elegant. The interior space is more than roomy. Features such as satelite radio and navigation enhance the overall experience. This car makes a statment, are you prepared for the attention you will get while behind the wheel?

Looked at it on Friday, test drove it on Satruday, bought it on Sunday......... I'm a big man and this car with it's telecoping wheel, variable pedals, and power seat, gives all the room I need for comfort and access to all the controls........ The fit and finish is one of the best for a NA built car.....I would like this car more if I could have gotten the hemi, but price and insurnce was was factor. All in all, one of the best I have owned and driven. I gave up a great Ford Crown Vic to drive one of the best! And the styling sure makes a statement!

I did a lot of vehicle comparisons before purchasing my 300C AWD. This car offers more bang for the buck than any other full sized sedan. I've always been a GM fan but this car is far and away the the best and most fun I've ever driven. It get a lot more attention on the road as well. Great proformance and styling coupled with and handling package that is truly awsome I love this car!

The Satin Jade C is 5 months and 7000 miles old now. At this point no issues have occurred with regard to reliability. It has not been back to the dealer. It is comfortable, fun, and quick for such big car. Although these have been around a couple of years now, people still comment on its looks, and so far those comments have all been positive. I look for excuses to drive it still. We took the Sirius, power moonroof, side airbags, adjustable pedals. Mileage has not been bad for the HEMI. So far so good.

We have had our loaded 300C for just one month and we are very happy with the purchase. Everyone comments on how beautiful the car is. It is an incredible deal for the money. Can't wait to drive it every day. It is not perfect, but for the money what is!! Couldn't be happier. Will write another review in a few months.

I considered this car for 6 months as I looked at many others in the same price range. I can confidently say that this car is the absolute "best buy" in the market today of anything priced around $30,000 or less. Looks like a Bentley, drives like a Mercedes and gets 27 miles to the gallon on the highway - what's not to love? You won't regret making the decision to buy this car.

Love my 300C, Great car for the money. Gets lots of looks, has lots of power & get up & go. I had my 300C into the Chrysler dealer in McKinney, Texas for the front tires feathering. The dealer says this is normal. I wonder what happens when the tires wear down bald on the edges? I like other 300C owners can't seem to get the claimed gas mileage, I get 12 city & 21.2 hwy. The Navi system doesn't show as many street names on it & you can not operate it while moving like my Mazda3s system. You must stop & pull over. I am starting to worry about the resale value now. You can get a used 300C right at $30k. I paid over $37k new in June. All in all I love this car!

I drive about 60 miles a day on both interstate and country two lane roads. The performance is wonderful. The ride is very stable but you do feel the road through the tires and solid suspension which I expected. I find find myself disengaging the traction control so I can experience the true power.The care is all that I expected.I previously owned an BMW M5 but I like this car much better and 20,000 dollars less. I installed a K&N cold air system and have a chip ordered to install also.

When I first saw the car in 2004 I wasn't very impressed. This car grows on you. It is elegant, very zippy and fun to drive. Carrying 4 passengers and a driver on a road trip to Miami was very comfortable with lots of room for luggage - trunk is huge! I optioned mine with a moon roof, luxury interior, Nav system, and protection package. I get lots of complements on it. Only complaint is that the Nav System is about 2 years out of date in some cases and I haven't been too successful in getting info on the updates.

Very comfortable and fun car to drive. People seem to notice this car and have received many compliments. First road trip was 400 miles from Las Vegas to San Luis Obispo, CA, and made trip on one tank of gas with 100 miles left over on "miles to empty" computer. Got 29 miles per gallon for the entire trip. Chose Cool Vanilla for our exterior color and the custom "Bentley- style" front grill. Love it!

A few things could have been better, But then again, every car has some flaws. I found it vey difficiult to adjust the rear view mirror. I can't grip it good to move it. Bling spots all over. And limited view through the front window, cant see traffic light good, i find myself looking at the walk way lights to determine if the light changed green. But over all , i love it.!!!!!

I've had my car about 3 weeks now and I want to thank Edmunds...went into the dealership with the TMV price inside my head and drove out with a 300C at over $1200 lower than that. The old saying knowledge is power!! I got the metallic black..tinted the windows...slapped some deep dish 20's on there...my buddies says it looks like a mob car..lol..needless to say I love it....THX again!!

This is by far the most fun car I have ever driven. The ultimate dream for every child at heart! I am waiting for an opportunity to take it somewhere where I can let it run and not worry about getting a huge speeding ticket. I had a young boy on a bicycle tell me what a sharp car it was----he was willing to trade his bike for the car! One of the local police officers was almost drooling over the car when he saw it.

I am 27 years old and bought this vehicle and i have had people i dont even know approach me out of the blue and have recieved compliments from them!! What are you waiting for?!?!?

Incredibly powerful driving fun. Plush interior, lots of gadgets to play with. Bluetooth calling and heated seats are just a few of the now essential features I use. GPS is very helpful, esp driving around Los Angeles. Sound system is wonderful and "control center" very intuitive, integrating phone, CDs, radio, satellite radio, GPS all on the steering wheel. Car feels safe. Enormous trunk space. Barely 3000 miles on the odometer, but enjoying every drive thoroughly.

I have only had my 300C for 3 months. After driving it for 5,000 miles, i am more impressed with it's comfort and handling than I was at first. I find that it isn't just a way to get from point A to Point B - it is an experience akin to flying first class in a widebody jet. I also enjoy the looks that passing motorist give it. the fuel economy isn't a real factor since i appreciate the 4,000 plus pounds of security that it ofers my family, along with the fact that the 5.7 Hemi provided more that enough power to get out trouble. the tranny is super responsive. I don'y have near enough room to praise the interior except to say - TOPS! In general, I could be happier with my new 300C.

Although it is not the Hemi, I feel that it still has enough power to get you where you need to go and in good timing. It has been one of the better looking vehicle I have ever purchased. I am a Chrysler fan, being that this is the 6th one since 1980. This car is very roomy and the design is one of the best. Handles the road well.

Test drove all three models (Hemi last). Boy was that fun. Best Car I have ever owned. MOST BANG FOR THE BUCK than anything in or out of class. Have not had it on the open road, but am impressed on local highways. Power is key with this piece of joy.
