Better than Old Lexus
I love my new SRT 8! I have been an owner of a Lexus GS and an Infinity 4.5. They both are Yugo's compared to this. I love the power and fit and finish is great!. Any stoplight drag race is mine from now on. I don't think I'll ever go back to imports
Second 300
Love my 300. I had a 1996 300 that I really enjoyed but I did have some trouble in the winter since my area is very hilly, and I must drive when it snows. So I did not think twice about trading it in as soon as payed off so I could buy the awd model. It has been great! My fuel mileage only went down by a hair over 1 mpg and it is great in the snow.

Blah Blah
Nicely styled exterior with those narrow windows results in limited visibility that is borderline dangerous. Between the front roof post and side view mirrors...look out on turns. The interior was spacious but bland, with nothing to recommend or criticize too hard. I had the V6, which made the car's interior sound like a truck, and was the noisiest I've driven in years. It did provide good acceleration, and was well matched to the car's below average handling. The engine was not as thirsty as I feared. I got 22-24 mpg in mostly suburban driving. Handling is only adequate - you really have to work the steering wheel, and the car's long wheelbase doesn't help.
300C Review
Fo referenceI bought my 08 Chrysler 300C Executive series with 5.7 hemi, I bought it used and it had 100k on it already. PROS- space can fit 4 people comfortable or squish 5 in there. The Power of the hemi is something that is a huge bonus. The interior design gives the owner a luxury feel. Road noise is present but minimal. Smooth handling and floats down the road. Many luxury options like leather seats, moonroof and telescopic steering is standard for my car. MPG is more than what was posted on the website for my car. Cons- response when pressing gas needs improvement. Cost of doing simple matience is high. Simple spark plug change can cost alot to do yourself. Chrome is clip on or glued to car and wheels are not true chrome. Sensor that shuts down four cylinders is a concern due to if it breaks car could be stuck on only four cylinders. Sunroof safety feature can cause sunroof to not close properly thinking there is an object in the path of the sunroof. Some panels are very flimsy and thin which can make for easy dents from debris while driving. Example, rear quarter panels and roof. Cost of repairs is biggest con. Replacing the sunglasses holder for example is 300 for the part alone. For plastic. Overall I am still very happy with the car. The power is really great and the way it drives makes you feel like you are floating down the road. The car wants to go. It will be easy to speed and not know your speeding with this car. I would be careful when buying these used because many could have been raced and road hard before they get sold back. Many could be wrecked and rebuilt and then resold. I would buy this model again with the 5.7 hemi but I would be more careful in selecting which one I would get due to so many being wrecked and rebuilt.

Unbelievable Value
Returned a leased 2007 300C AWD and bought this one, fearing Chrysler will not make such a big heavy powerful car again. I bought Inferno red again and it still turns heads, especially with a new Bently front grill. I used to get a Cadillac STS every two years until 2007 when I realized this is a more beautiful car and has everything an STS has, plus much more, at a much lower price.
