  • I am sad that Chrysler is no longer making the 300 model.

    I am sad that Chrysler is no longer making the 300 model. Even if it could be revived as a hybrid. I currently get over 30 mph on the highway and mid 20 mph in the city. It literally idles along at around 1500 rpms or less at 55 mph. At 8 years of age, its exterior and interior look new.

  • I would buy it over and over again!!

    My 2017 Chrysler 300c (V6) is one of the best cars I've had and and fast! One person complained about the lamination on the radio being bad and that's true but all I did was went to ebay motors and replaced the radio "myself" and it's been great every since.

  • Recall necessary!

    Chrysler will not stand behind the electronics of this car. Screen delaminating causing electronics not to work properly. There needs to be a recall on this part. It controls all of the electric parts of the car. Camera, radio, Nav system, A/C, back up Camera.

  • I was told to check out the 300 with the Hemi.

    2017 Chrysler 300 C Platinum. It runs great. Lots of pep. My mileage is above dealer and professional reviewer’s estimates. Looks are great! Rides nice. To many “extras” for my simple taste, but I must say that I enjoy them. No one needs to pay more for a European or Asian luxury vehicle.

  • Great car

    Turn signals in dash panel not easily visible. All round dials for controls confusing; radio, transmission, comfort (heat, etc.), many gadgets on console are distracting. Architecturally and engineering wise are great. A beautiful car. Quiet and comfortable . If only I had the car in high school!

  • Most reliable and fantastic

    This is beast of a car with a lot of character. Absolutely zero issues from day one! I bought it because it is a perfect blend of luxury and performance and very few cars out there offer this. It has Plenty of cabin space, leg room, trunk space and hands down the most comfortable American cruiser ever. Packed with a powerful V6 and 300 horses it is always an exciting and absolute fun ride !

  • Loved 300C so much traded in for new 300

    Loved everything about my 2016 300C except I couldn?t get Apple Car play. Loaded and most comfortable ride I?ve ever had. Loved it so much I traded for a new 2018 300.

  • Relatively inexpensive luxury car

    This car has all the addons I am interested in. It is very comfortable to ride in, has a great sound system, handles well, and the interior is quiet on the road. The Platinum version has the most addons. Excellent.
