nice car for the money - 2002 Chrysler 300M
By M - November 18 - 12:22 pmI got it 1 year ago. First of all, when I hear about road noise I will say check you tires, I got new set form tire rack, avon tires, those are grat both in noise, handling and price, half of what you have to pay for Michelins. Overall I will say that the car is fun to drive, I like it. Exchanging brake pads from standard metal to ceramic (cost the same) would get rid off the brake dust, great.

For the Money - 2002 Chrysler 300M
By Ashley - October 18 - 10:23 amFor the money... This is a good car to buy used you can buy this exact car for 12900, w/60k miles 10/18/06. You get near luxury options wrapped up with a decent body/engine. I would be upset if I had paid 30k. 12k was better. Reliabilty has been ok, had tranny problems. way below avg sound system (nothing premium about it) horrible road noise. some problems with interior parts. decent performance/handling, great exhaust note!

Average Guys Performance Sedan - 2002 Chrysler 300M
By Ryan - July 28 - 11:31 pmFrom its introduction in 1999, Ive been in love with the 300M. I bought a 2002 model used. The styling is aggressive but not cluttered. Interior space is larger than expected, and the leather seats are very comfortable. Good support under the thighs, which is usually a big problem for me. Instrumentation is classy and simple. The engine provides a lot of power, and has a great growl at high RPMs. My 300M is a lot of fun to drive, as it hugs the road more like a sports car than a 4-door sedan. Steering is precise with a good feel for the road. There is an unbelievable amount of space in the trunk--larger than my old 95 Concorde! Managed to get 27 mpg on a road trip. I love this car!

300M Needs a motor @ 62K miles - 2002 Chrysler 300M
By Disappointed Dave - June 1 - 10:57 pmGreat car until srevice engine light came on. Oil 1 quart low, take into dealer to find car needs a camshaft positioner, get that fixed and dealer then shows me oil puddles below intake manifold and cylinder heads plugged with sludge. Car need new design cylinder heads, valves, etc $2500. Chrysler says "out of warranty, sorry for you" 1st and last Chrysler product.

It is Special - 2002 Chrysler 300M
By Poconos Bill - July 31 - 1:13 pmIve driven this fine car for 3 years and have no unusual maintenance needs (only" oil changes Brake Pads and Tires at 40,000). Ive enjoyed the Interstate Highway and secondary road competence. The only worry I have is the natural tendency to exceed any speed limit! Some Tram Line agravation when I purchased this care was acutally loose lug nut related! (resolved with torque wrench check). I love driving this car in the warm months - It stays mostly garaged in the winter as the tires "Michelin Pilot Sports" are not good in snow (and you are so warned when you buy these tires). This M is special.

Would do it different if I could - 2002 Chrysler 300M
By hartz425 - July 2 - 10:32 pmGreat looking car both inside and out, nice dash and I liked the style it has. That is where is all stops, I road noise is like driving a pick up truck, you feel every bump and crack in the road, very disappointing in these area. Fuel ecomomy has run 20 combine highway and city, I thought that would be better for a V6, inside is comfortable, the AC is bad also, but everything is black inside, another mistake, rotors are always rusting and making a mess on the garage floor. In short I can not wait until I get back to a Lincoln, have not had a Chrsyler for 32 years and hope never to have another

Race Car - 2002 Chrysler 300M
By Tom - April 30 - 11:28 amI bought this car out of frustation because I had looked at so many. I bought the wrong car. Pretty expensive, lousy milage, and not the highway car that I needed. Having said that, it is a very good car. Handles great, fast (too fast?), roomy, room for 2 + golf bags in the trunk but noisey from road noise. OEM tires lasted 20,000 at $300/each. All in all next time Id buy somethink else. Mopar fans probably love it, I dont.

My thoughts of the 2002 300M - 2002 Chrysler 300M
By Gorn - June 16 - 2:00 amIve owned my 300M Special for 2 years. I gave me a compromise between having a fun car to drive and being able to haul the family around. Service from the dealership has been great with one exception. They didnt do a thorough review of the car before it was delivered to me. The air didnt work

Attention to detail? - 2002 Chrysler 300M
By BioMan - June 10 - 2:00 amWe bought this car for roadtrips and it performs quite well in that respect. Mileage is a little concerning around town (~18mpg) but on the hwy is quite nice (~26mpg). This car is soooo smooth and powerfull its almost too easy to speed. But whats with the 110mph speed limiter? My biggest gripe with the 300M is in its interior quiality. Cheap plasic pieces that dont quite fit together produce annoying rattles in the dash, doors and headliner. Maybe Chrysler should speak to the folks at Audi about this issue... Overall a good touring car for those who like high speeds and a roomy comfortable interior.
