Chrysler 300 Reviews

"The Chrysler 300's styling is distinctive, and its interior is roomy, efficient and stylish."

"Traction control, electronic stability programs, anti-lock brakes, and electronic brake distribution all improve the driver's ability to control the car."

"It's a chassis without any discernible faults; the suspension is simply tuned more toward everyday driving than the sport end of the spectrum."

"Gauges are clean and simple, with Elgin watch-style faces...control stalks by the wheel have a high-quality Mercedes feel, as does the shift lever with its chrome center section."

"Saddled with a small V6, the base model feels sluggish, and we wouldn't recommend it to most buyers."

"An economist would tell you all that value had to be extracted somewhere, but with the 300 there are only a few obvious corners cut. One place is the transmission, which is essentially a standard pattern automatic without any sport mode or slap-shifter gate. The other omission is the lack of wood trim in the interior, which is nevertheless quite elegant in a simple, understated way and - except for a slightly cheap-looking silver steering wheel finish - largely meets Chrysler's design brief for "understated opulence.""

"Not especially sporty, the car offers value of a different sort."
