Best car I ever owned

I have a 2006 touring. I bought it with high miles an an the second owner. I've had the car for over 7 years and it's never not one time left me stranded. It performs great and has plenty of power even though it's only a 6 cylinder. I did add a touch screen double din and got rid of the Mickey mouse stock radio and got a backup camera too which helps a lot. I had 3 subs added and customer paint. Everything else is stock. Had issues with the a/c and got the condenser replaced which fixed it. To be honest when I got the car is drove smooth like a new car and still does. This is by far my favorite and best car I've ever owned. I'm thankful to God how good is been to me.

2006 300c

My 300c is a 2006 with 86,xxx miles on it. I love this car, roomy, reliable, and handsome. My paint is great, no peeling or fading. The 5.7 hemi has performed flawlessly, but being 16 years old, I'm going to add a few performance parts, intake and exhaust mainly. I have two complaints, #1, the drivers seat is uncomfortable and #2, I need more sound deadener at the firewall. I've read that these engines tend to drop a valve seat. I'm hoping that I'm beyond that, but if it did and destroyed the engine, I'd probably replace the motor, as I like the car that much. Point of info, I'm 69 years old and 6'1, so I do like a large car for comfort... Thanks...

Al Capone would be proud!

These cars are very nice with a classy sinister look with good performance and luxury. They are also affordable. The Chrysler 300 may not be a Rolls-Royce or a Bentley, however for the money they will not be beat. Many packages are offered with these cars ranging from the base V6 to the hopped up Hemi.

Almost died because of known issue they wont fix

Vehicle stalls out on highway and it's a known issue Chrysler wont fix. Are they just waiting for someone's family to be killed before they do something?

It's Been Reliable, But...

I have a 2006 Chrysler 300 AWD. I bought it used 13 years ago. Currently, it has 136K miles on it. So far, I've only had maintenance repairs -- tie rod replacements, tires, battery, brakes, and most recently a starter. It's a roomy car with comfortable leather seats. The drivers seat has cracked and torn. The trunk is huge with a pass-through in the back seat. The battery is in the trunk which makes it easy to replace. It's a huge battery so it's pricey to replace. Being AWD, you can't replace just one tire. All of them need to be replaced at the same time. The built-in garage door-sync is nice but I've noticed I have to be practically to the garage door and hold it down for it to work. I used to be able to open the garage door from the street. Power windows/mirrors and moonroof. Heated front seats are awesome. It's rides comfortably and smooth. It does not have the get up and go if you need to get in or out of traffic quickly -- there's too much lag time before the engine kicks in. Every now and then, I notice the engine lose slight power when sitting at a stop light -- like it's going to die. Lifters are knocking, too. Overall, it's not been too bad of a car but I've not been very happy over the performance issues.

Safe, reliable, fun car

This 300 is great for someone that wants more room on the interior this car offers that. Its a V6 so good on gas. Easy to drive. I dont really have any negative things to say. What you see is exactly what u get. Comfort. Stylish, low maintenence
