Buyer Beware

I bought my 2001 300M because I loved the styling, the handling and performance,the ride was never great. It's a big car and I think the styling still turns heads. But the cabin is too noisy for a car of this value. Over 50 mph you must yell to rear passengers. The ride is a little bumpy but that may be the sportier suspension. The dealer had to replace the radio in the first year, a pain but it was covered. The rotors warped and had to be turned at 24,000 miles. I was seriously considering a new 2006 300C, but the transmission on the 2001 went this week at 62,500 miles. That's it for me! Chrylser didn't want to know me so now I don't want to know them. Hello Toyota Avalon?

I've owned the car a year now since I bought it new and haven't had a single problem with it. I still love to get in it each time I drive it...it's beautiful and it handles like a dream and runs smoothly. Love this car!

After owning this car for 20 years, I feel it was ahead of it's time stylistically and mechanically. The interior heating and cooling systems have been refurbished. I recently repainted the car at MAACO and had name plates (Chrysler and 300M) replaced as well, since the originals were dull and stripping of their chrome. I would still buy this car again hands down.

what a POS!!! Transmission Timing belt!

i bought this car with only 68,000 for what i thought was a deal, a week after buying it the acceleration was off & would jut after 20mph, the allignment was so bad it balded the left front tire & the gas mileage...good lord i had a aztek before this car and my aztek suv got better gas mileage. so i take it to a mechanic to see why it would shake and jut after accelerating past 20 mph and it turns out a cost of $2000 min would fix the transmission, and a min of $1000 to fix the timing belt. 3 grand in just a week after having it? the mechanic told me to get away from it as soon as possible cuz chryslers are known for transmission issues, so thats what i did. She was a beauty on the outside
