Beyond Satisfied with the Car

I bought a used 2006 Chrysler 300C (V8 Hemi) with 144,000 miles on it for $8500. Outside of regular maintenance (tires and oil), I have replaced water pump, alternator, coolant reservoir (cracked), radiator, and all suspension over the 6.5 years i have owned it. I see a few people saying they had nothing but problem after problem with the car, I have not had that experience. The suspension was the most expensive part, but the suspension i had on the car was original so needed to be replaced. I am currently at 333,500 miles and the car still runs great. I plan on using this as daily driver as long as possible. I even take 3-5 hour drives fairly often. I also drive 1.5 hours per work day to get to and from work. I have probably spent $1200 - $1300 in repairs since me and my brother did the repairs. From a dealer, that would probably be more like $3000 - $4000. This is equivelant to a $12000 ($4k repair from dealer + $8.5k car purchase) dollar car that has lasted me 6.5 years and still working.

Great Car

Very cheaply made engine parts.. very disappointed

It's been 1 thing after another since it was new.. low miles because can't keep it running long enough to put any on it.. interiors great plenty of room.. bought it for long trips I wouldn't trust it 3 miles..

I've had better luck with a 2000 Mitsubishi eclips

I bought The car From a friend Hey replace the torque converter At a 170000 miles I have driven the car for a 175000 And am now looking at probably spending 2200 for a new transmission. If kept up with maintenance I recommend the car but if not kept up with maintenance look for a bevvy of issues with transmission other than that a good car

Luxurious

I just got rid of this car after having it 3 years. I loved it! I had the Hemi and it did not disappoint. Gas mileage is terrible as expected. This car held up well when I got into an accident and kept me safe! Overall highly recommend and I’m going to miss this car!

Beautiful classy vehicle

Most reliable and comfortable vehicle I have ever owned. Great gas mileage. Excellent in the winter months. This car is so clean you will think it is new.
