Overview & Reviews

The 2005 Chrysler 300 is an all-new, rear-wheel-drive flagship sedan; it replaces the Concorde and 300M. In a clear move away from the cab-forward design theme Chrysler championed in the 1990s, the 300 represents the company's bold new direction and makes use of plenty of Mercedes-Benz technology. Available features include Chrysler's Hemi V8, stability control, side curtain airbags and, later in the year, all-wheel drive.

• Chiseled and masculine good looks, powerful V8 in 300C model, long list of safety features, plenty of luxury and performance for the price paid.

• Sluggish acceleration with base V6, limited transmission choices, complex stereo controls.

  300C 1st One in Houston - 2005 Chrysler 300
  By Fbal28 - July 15 - 2:00 am

  This car is amazing, turn the ESP off and you can light up the road. I never expected this much power from the 300C. The vehicle is drop dead gorgeous and a head turner!

  This car can move - 2005 Chrysler 300
  By doug powell - July 10 - 10:00 am

  I flew 500 miles away to get the cool vanilla color with the 280 watt mp3, the drive home was some good quality time bonding with the new car. This car rides quiet, is fast, and turns heads. I dont see many on the road yet but I think there will be a lot of them soon. I dont know about reliability yet but it seems solid.

  Latest of 35, and Best - 2005 Chrysler 300
  By Jim - July 7 - 4:30 pm

  Excellent road car with safe feel except for the self sealing tires, which are not up to the ability of the suspension. Very agile and easy to drive. I am an ex-high performance instructor and the car responds well to all inputs. The car takes longer than most to get used to but has become a joy to drive. It is better than I expected it to be.

  Overhyped - 2005 Chrysler 300
  By dave h - July 7 - 3:05 pm

  The Chrysler 300 is the most over hyped car in the past couple of years. Last winter it seemed to be one of the worst cars on the road for handling snow and ice. It is especially poor for the size and weight of the car. Visibility is also very poor.

  Not quite to premium luxury - 2005 Chrysler 300
  By Ross Wagner - July 5 - 3:28 pm

  I have now owned my Chrysler 300C for 22 months and they finally cured my dash rattle after 12 visits! This car is good value for what you receive, although it is not in the premium luxury class. It handles well, but not like the Germans and the interior materials are not of the top makers quality. They mar and scratch easily. However, the drivetrain is awesome and decent fuel economy is obtainable. Continental tires are the other problem. They are too soft on compound and too stiff in the sidewall, which gives some harshness to the ride but good grip and lousy wear. Will replace at 24K.

  INCREDIBLE VALUE - 2005 Chrysler 300
  By Hussam Khoury - June 24 - 8:36 am

  I have had my signature series for slightly over a month. I love the suspension, design and features this car came with. 3.6 Liters is plenty of power for everyday driving.

  It Dont Get Any Better! - 2005 Chrysler 300
  By Larry - June 18 - 11:00 pm

  Theres nothing on/in my 300C that I dont like. I have all available options and it was money well spent. I can be pumping gas or driving up to a fastfood window and I get compliments from all ages.

  Killer Seats - 2005 Chrysler 300
  By C. L. Butler - June 18 - 5:20 pm

  The styling of this auto has garnered raves since I first purchased it. The "C" model has certainly been an attention getter. Powerful engine, smooth transmission, reasonably good fuel consumption and a quiet cabin are all positives for this auto. Less pleasurable, at least for this owner, is Chryslers addiction to the idea that the seats have to be hard and firm. We owned a 1993 Concorde prior to this car and it was cursed with the same type seats which caused me great discomfort after a few hours driving. Others in the family have made the same comment. Also, the suspension on this car seems to be given to allowing more wallow and roll in curves than expected. Try out one first.
