    I have owned over 50 vehicles in my lifetime and this is one of the best cars I have owned. Just came off a 1600 mile trip with alot of 2 lane roads and some freeway driving. Averaged 33 MPG on the complete trip. Have approx 4200 miles on the car. The ride is excellent and quite for this old senior. Lots of room and I have been a GM guy all my life. Would recommend this car to anyone. Lots of power, lots of comfort and lots of gagets. I love this car!

    After buying Hondas and Toyotas for years, I bought a Chrysler 300. I read great things about the Penstar V6 and the 8 speed transmission and attention to detail. The car is the nicest car I have ever owned. I average 31 MPG at 75MPH on the highway and the V6 has muscle car like punch and sound. Im not one to write a review, but this vehicle has me passionate about cars again!

    I am happy with decision to purchase the 300. I have owned GM products since I was 16. If this car has the longevity I think it will, I will be a loyal Chrysler owner. Im 50 & 64" tall and 300 lbs Im not a small man so my choices in a new car are limited. I have been driving SUVs for the last 20 years and wanted a car this time for better fuel economy. I like the fact its not a young persons car. The 300 is a godsend. I own a 06 Lucerne. Its a nice car but the angle of top side of the car reduces shoulder room. The 300 is very forgiving for us larger than normal people not to mention that the seats sit higher and I dont feel like Im crawling out of the vehicle.

  • Big American Rear Wheel Drive V8 - 2012 Chrysler 300

    What can I say? the 300C takes us back to old school USA days when cars were big, rear wheel drive, V8 luxury liners - that is exactly what this 300C represents. The ride is incredibly plush yet handles quite well when needed. Great turning radius as well.

    This is my 6th Chrysler product in 3 years. I have owned all makes, including Jeeps. This car is by far the best car I have ever owned. MPG is my favorite subject when asked. I have never gotten LESS than 25 mpg city or 32 hwy, BUT I USUALLY get 38 Hwy and have even gotten 41.4 hwy! I posted the pic to Chryslers FBook site. This car is amazing in comfort, style, ride and value. I bought the base with the 8 spd and the 8.4 touchscreen. I wouldnt change a thing. I drive over 400 miles weekly for work and I have almost 5000 miles on the car. Trouble free and nothing but stares and compliments, Several people have asked me if it is an Audi a8. Hands down the best investment I have made.

  • Best Car... Hands down! - 2012 Chrysler 300
    By -

    This car is simply amazing... I read the reviews. 31 mpg, Halftime America... yeah yeah yeah. But this car has proven me wrong. Pentastar coupled with the new 8 speed tranny can best 25 mpg city and 40 on the highway when cruising and still as nearly 30 horsepower to pass by turtles when necessary. The insides are on par with ANY other luxury car. I have the S package with in my opinion looks bit better, bigger tires, blacked out grill and bezels in lights, paddle shifters, and bucket seats. But the limited is no slouch with standard leather and rearview camera. The ride is quiet. I just cant believe how well this car is put together. Premium cloth seats are truly premium!What a car!

    Have owned this beautiful car three weeks now. Went on a 350 mile round trip last week. On the way down,got 31.9 mpg. on the way back home,got 32.4 mpg. This car is remarkable,I love it! Comfortable,quite smooooooth riding! Will really put it to the test later when we will be traveling more than 2000 miles. I have no dought it will perform this trip with ease and comfort. After trying out many cars, I truely believe i have made the best choice possible. Will report back in when we get back from our long trip.

  • Wow! 300C Is OUTSTANDING! - 2012 Chrysler 300
    By -

    $32,000 Loaded, Unbelievable! This car rides like a Bentley. This has to be the best "for the money" purchase i have made in years. Brakes are strong, interior with cloth seats still feels RICH. Steering wheel and wood trim look and feel outstanding. I cannot believe the reasonable price on this car. 23MPG mostly city, also is impressive. Gotta admit, Im blown away by this car!
