This Year's Model Updates:

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.

Pros:
  • Chiseled and masculine good looks, powerful V8 in 300C model, long list of safety features, plenty of luxury and performance for the price paid.
Cons:
  • Sluggish acceleration with base V6, limited transmission choices, complex stereo controls.

  • Front Wheel Alignment - Safety Issue - 2005 Chrysler 300
    By -

    Excellent car! However, the 300 I bought was one that has a serious problem. The front wheel went out of alignment and Chrysler can not fix. I have great confidence in the service department at Riverside so I know if it could be corrected it would be done. The car has already scooped out the front set of tires and they have been moved to the back. The problem is getting worse and at this point I do not feel safe driving the car for any great distance. Any release of the wheel and the car pulls suddenly to the right. It is a serious safety issue. I have been told others owners are experiencing the same known problem. Chrysler has promised to correct the situation.

    Love the overall design and comfort. I feel very safe being back in a full size sedan. The Hemi is nuts!!!

  • my 300 C - 2005 Chrysler 300
    By -

    my past three cars have been a jaguar , a BMW 740 and a brand new 2003 Mercedes E class. when i saw the 300C I fell in love. Then i test drove one and knew i had to have one. The Mercedes was a nice car but no pizazz and ridiculously designed cup holders that twirl up and get in the way until you end up knocking the drink right out of it.(3 times) I traded the Mercedes on the 300C and i absolyutely love it . driving is fun again and everyone that sees it comes up and asks you about it. That never happened with the Merc. Finally an american car I am proud to drive and leave most of its competitos in the dust.

    The 300C I purchased is everything I hoped it would be. Its styling is unique. The quality of the craftsmanship is great. My daughter asked me what I thought about the car, I told her it was a "muscle car dressed in a tuxedo". So far I have had only good experiences with it.

  • Dream Car - 2005 Chrysler 300

    The moment I saw this car I wanted it. As soon as I could I traded in my truck and got one. I am not at all disappointed as it is just what I imagined it would be. Love it!

  • Real Wheel Drive - 2005 Chrysler 300
    By -

    The only hesitation I had and basically still have is the fact that it is real wheel drive. I had much more confidence in front wheel drive in the winter. I have not put this vehicle thru the paces trying to navigate really snowy roads yet but I am hoping it will not fail me.

  • Well done Chrysler! - 2005 Chrysler 300
    By -

    Awesome vehicle! Never thought I would be driving a big sedan again, this car has changed my mind about rear wheel drive and sedans. Excellent fuel economy with such a powerful engine. By far best looking and performing vehicle for the price, or almost any price.
