"Purchased a 2006 300C AWD and I love this car. Me being 6'4" tall, I have more than enough room and the power is unbelievable. This vehicle has so many options that sometimes I feel as if I'm driving a german competitor that costs thousands more. Oh, did I mention I love the power HEMI, for the win!!"

"I bought this 2006 Chrysler 300c AWD with under 50,000 miles as a second car. With a few upgrades, low temp thermostat, cold air intake, and the resonators removed...this car is a BEAST! Plus my gas mileage has increased about 2.5 mpg. I drive it from Cleveland to Dallas and I get between 23 to 25.5 mpg...AWESOME! For the ride and the comfort some people think this car is for show, but my Chrysler 300c AWD is for GO! I will buy a new one this coming year..."

"I bought this car used with 41K miles. After two months and 4K miles I have averaged 21mpg mostly city and some highway driving. 25-26 for all higway driving. Overall I love this car. It rides fantastic and drives very nice. It has all the features you could want and then some. Plus, for the size of the car, I can't really complain about fuel mileage. The car gets complements by lots of people and suites our family well. The suspension is a little soft when going around corners at speed. This thing doesn't drive like a sports car. I'd suggest some stiffer sway bars or similar. Also the trunk opening and closing isn't as nice as it should be on a car of this caliber. Otherwise, leave the car as is!"

"This car has great performance, gets reasonable mileage (22 mpg Highway) and has striking ageless looks. Very sinister intimidating stance. It is very comfortable around town as well as on the road. It has individual climate controls, heated and electric seats and a great multi-speaker sound system including satelite radio."

A Big Luxury Car that Really Performs

"We bought our 2006 300C in December 2005 and racked up over 37,000 trouble free miles so far. The HEMI and the big American styling sold me on the car. Excellent value on a vehicle that came loaded with everything including navigation. The car is quiet, tight, well constructed - even has non-corrosive aluminum hood and trunk lids to reduce weight. The Boston Sound System is absolutely the best radio I have ever had in a car. For me anyway, all the dashboard buttons and switches seem to be in the right place. I replaced the Conti self-sealing tires with Goodyear Assurances and made the ride even better. The trunk is a little small for us, but the rear seats fold down which helps."

"I own a 2006 300C, I have put 36,000 miles miles on it with no problems. This car has been very reliable and an absolute joy to drive. Turn the traction control off and the hemi power brings out the teenager in you! This vehicle also gets 25 mpg hwy which is unbeleivable considering the ponies under the hood. I have also driven it thru 2 nasty winters and found with 2 blizzaks on the rear it will go thru just about anything. The traction control is spot on and will not let the car get away from you. The heated leather seats and over all interior is comfortable and very well appointed. If you are looking for a full size sedan stop your search and go out and drive one, it will bring the teenager out in you!"

"The vehicle is snappy with all the space and luxury you can imagine. The vehicle gets impressive mpg with a 5.7L Hemi. I like having the 340 hp get-up-and-go while knowing my family is safe and comfortable."

"Its get up and go is so nice and the interior is very luxurious. Its an all around good car, the gas mileage is good for its size and weight, and the 340/425 hp 5.7 liter v-8 is something nice to see under the hood."

"At first I was shocked by the styling of the 300 after getting accustomed to the jelly bean shape of cars that has been recently used. Then I remembered the cars of the mid 1960s: Galaxie, Fury, etc and saw that this is what they meant. And I looked up pictures of early to mid 1960s Plymouths, Dodges and Chryslers and saw how many design features were used in the 300. The wife and I drove several cars before buying, but the 300 was the standout. We bought the C (the car with the 5.7 L HEMI). The MDS makes it a six cylinder in practice (sometimes a V8 and sometimes a V6), so the MPG is not much different from the 3.5 L V6 and there is so much power when you need it. It has quite comfortable leather seating (fronts heated), dual climate controls. The back seat has plenty of leg room. One place that could have used some more room is the trunk. It is smaller than the very large one in our Intrepid, but still big enough. The rear seat backs fold down completely, so there is room for lots of stuff. Two things about the transmission (a Mercedes desing). 1. Only the dealer can check the fluid level (it's sealed), and 2. Many owners have had leaks from a 13 pin plug that goes into the transmission. It takes the mechanic about 15 minutes to fix, and they all have leaked while under warranty. The replacement ones don't seem to leak. I have seen no evidence of poor fit of interior or exterior, it is put together really well. Handling is superb for something so big."
