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.

  Very Surprised - 2005 Chrysler 300
  By TAD - October 28 - 12:13 pm

  Bought the car at the suggestion of my wife. Traded in an 02 Lexus LS 430. Get more head turns and wow type comments than I ever experienced with my Lexus even thought it is a lot less expensive. Power to spare and you feel special driving it. Because of the stylish cut of the windows viewing out the back sides is somewhat compromised, but the styling makes it worthwhile. Handles very well and is extremely quietMy car is quipped with Sirius and I wont own another car without Sirius. We travel from home a lot nad being able to bring in both music and talk radio without losing a station is awesome. We almost never use the CD player. Would recommend the car to anyone,

  On the right track - 2005 Chrysler 300
  By tndinca - September 26 - 10:00 am

  I rented this car for a week recently. I had heard the hype and was intrigued. Currently own a Saab and Bmw. Best features were drive train, interior space and styling. Was evident that Chrysler is trying to upgrade interior quality and I liked some aspects: the seats in particular. Suggest they need to keep at this as still below import competition. I would pay more for this car to to get improved material/detail quality. Examples: radio control knobs, steering wheel, door and trunk latches. Perhaps the 300c is nicer, but I suspect same issues. Trunk latch on my rental did not work and was very low quality. Could not close the trunk easily.

  I bought a Chrysler - 2005 Chrysler 300
  By AJ - September 26 - 6:43 am

  The 300C is the only car which could tear my 95 Impala SS out of my hands. With the advent of newer technology and hemi power, I could not resist. This is my 1st chrysler. The ride is excellent. Handling is on par with a car its size, but Pirelli M+Ts or some other tire will improve it. The power is there - no question about it. The autostick will downshift if you rest your hand on it, so be aware of that. The dealer did a terrible job of prepping the car, so I spent 8 hours using prewax cleaner, clay barring the paint, and then waxing it. The factory paint is *not* on par with GM, however, the time I spent made a big difference. I would say buy one, but only a hemi.

  A definite step up! Comfortable seats, lots of room, smooth ride, and a great sound system. Step on the pedal and you are gone. A car that truly makes the heads turn.

  Exact Vehicle for the Price - 2005 Chrysler 300
  By Lee Goodwin - September 20 - 10:00 am

  I bought my new Chrysler in August mainly for the style. Once driving it I found that it was comfortable, reliable, quality builded and fun to drive. When Im driving on the freeways it is easy to handle and alot of driving on the road usually look over and at the car and give me the thumb-up. I enjoy my new car and so do my famuly. My co-worker say it the best looking car on the parking lot. Some says it look like a Bently.

  We love our 300 Touring!!!!! - 2005 Chrysler 300
  By The Rays - September 20 - 10:00 am

  We love our new car. The handling is excellent and we really enjoy the luxury inside. The only thing we need to do at this point is tint our windows to get the complete vintage look. Were in our mid 20s and really enjoy the car all around. You get so many questions and looks in this car and I would suggest this car to anyone who wants luxury but doesnt want to pay the BMW luxury price.

  Dissapointed in NJ - 2005 Chrysler 300
  By LKAP - September 19 - 3:20 pm

  Bought the car about a year ago because I loved the muscle car look and the pure power from the Hemi. After the initial euphoria passed though, the warts started to come through. I wore through my tires in 22K mi, fit and finish issues started to appear such as cracks in the plastic (fake wood) door handles, and steering wheel controls sticking. Add to that gas mileage of 15 w/ a combo of city and hway and I had no choice but to trade it in. The 23Kmiles that I had it for cost me $16K as I got $26.5K for the trade. Mechanically the car is great, lots of power and great ride, but quality is still Chrysler and gas mileage is absolutely awful! 4WD is a must in the NE, RWD is awful in the snow!
