"The AWD is terrific. Trunk a bit small but livable. Radio upgrade is fantastic. Performance excellent. Although, the car has left me stranded two times; the radio frequency device in the tires failed two times within a month of each other. Instant flat both times; no warning. Now at 75,000 miles, the engine is using oil at the rate of one quart every 1200 miles. I have had the oil changed every 5,000 miles faithfully. I am disgusted that a $40,000 car burns oil. The dealer says it is virtually within spec. No smoke, no clogged plugs, must be blowing out the valves. Whatever. I love the car but how can you recommend an oil burner?! I am very disappointed."

"The 300 Series wows with it's cool styling but short of the top of the line 300C, the line-up is a big disappointment. The base engine is noisy and harsh, doesn't get good MPG and is mated to a 1990's vintage 4 speed automatic transmission of dubious quality. Interior materials, fit and finish and build quality are all subpar and the car drives like the overweight tank that it is. Hopefully the second gerneration of the 300, out in 2011, will fix these problems. Such a cool looking car should deliever on the whole package."

"If you're wanting a performance car with muscle and luxury, the 300C has it! Having driven performance cars - smaller ones - this was just the ticket! The technology inside is easy to read, easy to operate. The sound system is like being at the iMax! First year free Sirius sure is nice! It's also compatible with almost any cell phone and MP3/iPod! The HEMI - well, it's not just for hauling that trailer. Now you can really haul a--, well, you know. Smooth ride - gangster power!"

"this car has very appealing styling with the long mouth grill and slanted rear taillights.some of the worst things about the 300 is that the overall feel when you sit down is CHEAP! I mean those very grainy feeling plastics which are very bulky and intrusive and the misaligned panels and loose switches. The engine has good power but it doesnt have the feeling of oomph when compared the the recently dead Pontiac G8 . the shocks are good but when you hit a bump the car feels like its shaking side to side.Also the engine noise is pretty anoying when you try to hold a conversation. But if you just want a car that can get you around in style and bad gas mileage then this is the car for you."
