This is my second 300C AWD. The first was the 2006 model and I loved it. Then I got the 2008. What a disappointment. It's noisy and has been having issues since day one. Off and on electrical, the navigation system, UConnect. Additionally new rotors at a little over 12000 miles. It's been a royal pain. While the ride is smooth, the noise level is ridiculous. Being on UConnect, it is difficult to hear over the noise in the cabin. They definitely cheapened this version compared to the 2006. I had planned to stay with Chrysler, but now, I'm thinking not. Unless they've made some major improvements to quality, I'll take my money else where.
Went from Avalon to 300C AWD - Wow

Had an '96 Avalon & needed new car. Looked at Avalon and 300C. Bought 300C AWD and never looked back. Best decision we ever made! Avalon was NOT the trouble free car made out to be. Took 300C delivery in October, traveled to Fl. in Jan and to the West in Feb. What a road machine!! Went up Interstate mountain roads full 70 mph without any transmission shifting. Never had any vehicle do that. Engine would simply go from 4 cyl to 8. No effort making the climb. Hit snow in some high elev and the AWD had us going when others were having all kinds of fun. Did 70 mph on the level running on 4 cyl! This car brings back the pleasure of driving. Had forgotten how great driving could be.

Just bought this vehicle after being a big Cadillac Seville fan. I was looking for an AWD vehicle and looked at the Infiniti M and Lexus GS, finally drove this one and for about 12k less (based on my final cost) this was hands down the best buy. Interior design and materials aren't Lexus or Infiniti but they are far better than any of the other vehicles I had looked at including the Cadillac. Good ride, will go through anything (within reason), excellent entertainment system, great seats, and one of the few cars that you can get rear seat heaters in. Back seat is comfortable and you actually have leg room. Exceptionally quiet too. The price after rebates and discounts was amazing.
Gorgeous car, but utterly unreliable

One of the most beautiful cars in history in my opinion. Unfortunately, I found it to be beyond unreliable. I doubted buying one after hearing so many warnings about Chrysler, but the looks sold me. I was told the engine is built by Mercedes, so I hoped this model was a safer purchase. How foolish of me though... I've spent an average of $4000 a year just on fixing malfunctions. Electric parts failed constantly, and literally hoped for a successful engine start each time I turned the ignition on (due to a mysterious flaw which +3 official dealers couldn't fix). Among other issues, my dealer informed me that the car had an officially recognized defect. But somehow, Chrysler avoided having to pay the costs of fixing that issue. I contacted them directly and left extremely disappointed in their customer service. Drop-dead gorgeous car, but not worth the agonizing unreliability. Hopefully I can save others the pain. You've been warned. (2008 - 300C SRT design)
