33 year old car guy here, and the 300S is pretty much the perfect car in my opinion (the non-S models do look pretty geriatric). It's a big body, Mercedes-derived sedan with an easy to tune, big American pushrod V8. It's super comfortable. The blackout trim makes it look menacing. The UConnect is so well-done it feels natural. It handles well enough for a luxury cruiser. It's a big car but it doesn't feel like a big car (i.e., you don't feel like you're sitting in a cockpit with miles of dashboard in front of you). It has digital gauges that tell you oil, coolant, and transmission temperatures in REAL TIME. And best of all, it's fast. You can tell Chrysler still employs some gearheads!
I am interested in buying one but i have heard the reliability is extremely poor? Every article and forum i read recommends people stay away from them due to poor reliability? is this true?
@@jessejames863 hope you didn't buy one. Biggest POS since the K Cars. That V-6 is self destructive, and the car is built by Fiat company. Enough said.
I bought a new 3.6 8 speed 300 base model, with uconnect and audio upgrade, rwd, heated seats and little options like that, five years and 72000 trouble free miles and I still love driving her. still gets looks and compliments. mpg is great for a big car. I absolutely would get another.I sold my old 2005 hemi to a neighbor kids five years ago with 120,000 miles, and he still owns it today, nearly 200k miles, and he still loves it. I hope when I'm ready for my new car in three years or so, the 300 retains this Dane basic formula. I'll be upset if they turn it into a fwd Taurus Impala Avalon wanabe.
Chrysler Has Been On A Role Since 2008. This Car Is One Of The Best CARS On The Market. Luxurious, and The whole Interior Is Leather. For People Saying That Chrysler Is Ruined My Fiat. Fiat Started Helping Them In 2009. And look At There Cars Before Then. And Look At The Now That Fiat Has Them. Enough Said . Fiat Has Also Improved. All These Haters Of Chryler. Chrysler Is Not A Luxury Brand. Deal With It.
Have owned 1 of these beauties since 2013, the pentastar is good, but add a aftermarket exhaust system, Turbo, remap the engine management and it becomes GREAT, Oh it is quicker then 6.6 0-60 also. cheers from Australia
As I'm commenting Chrysler just announced the 2023 model year is the last for the 300, and i'm shocked to how well its aged. The basic design has been around for 12 years and it still is comfortable and powerful. Sad to see it will be the final full-sized sedan to roll off the assembly line.
I purchased a used 2018 Chrysler 300S with the all wheel drive in February. I absolutely love the car and as of this writing I have put nearly 5900 miles on the car. I love the look of a big sedan and with the S model you get a dash of sport.
I'm a big fan of the 300/Charger. A big sedan that is comfortable, can have power, and is attractive. Plus they may not necessarily break the bank. I've had a 2012 Charger SXT and can honestly say the initial 31 MPG highway it was given is legitimate. I currently have a 2018 Charger R/T and have seen 28 MPG highway at the tail end of a long 600 mile trip to the east coast. And I have never reset my MPG calculator. And these cars were and are trouble free. Chrysler built winners with these and they are the new Crown Vics in terms of long term tweaking and reliability.
1983jblack you are right. I have drove both the Charger and 300 and they were better on gas than the Nissan Maxima that I rented even though the Maxima weight 400-500 lbs less
Fortunately they're still selling quite a few of these so you'll still see them around for while. I'll get one in a few years when the value drops to somewhere affordable.
This Baby Boomer sure does miss the days when the Detroit "Big Three" offered exclusively the All American, massive, luxurious & powerful rear-driven automobiles. I know I'm living in the past, but you really couldn't beat an American car for size, power, reliability and luxury Back in The Day.
@@isellair7441 *Good for you my young friend! I'm sorry your generation had to miss out on all of the wonderful 'Luxo-Boats' which we Baby Boomers experienced. I have a small collection of American luxury cars from the 1960's to the mid 80's, Lincolns, Cadillac's, Chrysler's.. etc., (I even have a beautiful low-mile Lincoln, Versailles) and although I bought my wife a new BMW, I only drive my old, American personal luxury cars, WITH EXTREME JOY! If there were no events, like the so called 'Oil Crisis' and the unnecessary emission standards, the evolution of American cars would be so much different today, it's a damn crime! Anyway, enjoy your Chrysler 300, one of the finest cars ever to come out of the modern era.*
@@MrMenefrego1 Yep I will, it's sad to see many of my friends waste their money on overpriced used japanese and German cars when old comfortable cruisers like the 300 and crown Vic are plenty and cheap on the used market! Not to mention my modded 300 will blow the doors off of any of these cars! I plan to only buy American cars to help keep jobs here, I hope this covid crisis will open peoples eyes and make them see China isn't a viable option! Same to be said with the Saudis and oil, it was them who closed the taps on us in the 70s and Ultimately killed our auto industry thanks to the japanese and Germans swooping in. Buy here sell here!!!
@@MrMenefrego1 Nice going! I myself am 20 and have a 1962 Studebaker GT Hawk as my first car. Have had her since I was 17 and it took me a good seven years to get her. I personally find pretty much all Studebakers to be grossly underrated. Most people that I talk to either don't know it existed or view it as a total joke. I also like the Chrysler 300 quite a bit,as it was pretty much the under-dog of the industry back in the Daimler-Chrysler era. I love the weird and forgotten cars the most and the 300 certainly qualifies. I'd like to get one as a daily driver to be honest.
Did they ever fix the front end suspension problems on the LX's? I had a 2006 Dodge Magnum SXT and after 50k miles, I just had to start getting suspension piece after suspension piece replaced because of the lousy Mercedes front suspension. Heard other LX owners had the same problems. Ironic that almost all the problems I had with my Magnum was with the Mercedes parts, not the Dodge parts.
Jim Seeber It's because mercades engineer's their cars to have high maintenance, they like a car that regularly breaks and needs extensive costly repairs bevause it brings their customers back to the dealership to give them more money... Or to buy new Mercedes That's not a problem if your in Mercedes wealthy demographic... But when they implemented it in dodge and chrysler which are both blue collar brands it just ended up pissing people off and instead of going to the dealership they just went to a used dealership and traded their old car in.
This was a tough decision, 2015 lincoln mkz or 2015 Chrysler 300. I went with the lincoln, while the 300 isn't a bad car it didn't match the lincolns handling and feel.
AWD only in the 3.6L model????... O_o Nevermind looking into the 2015+ model... I'll keep my '12 Hemi AWD 300C. Shame on not offering the AWD option in the V8 package.
Howard Roark I hope it’s not the reason but with Sergio gone things can change. The thing is though what can still make Chrysler stand on its own two feet is the HEMI engines and maybe its Pentastar.
amazing car, looks great, great power only problem is poor reliability. why can't Chrysler fix their reliability issues already. they could outsell camry and accords
Mario Master 02 No, not since Fiat has restructured the brand. Chrysler will still make nice cars, but they will be designed to fight head on with Ford or Toyota. I think that Chrysler will still be higher quality.
Robert Baratheon sorry say this it will never stand that chance with toyota. Maybe ford because fords suck. I would reather have the Chrysler imperial ovet this plastic piece of shit. Chrome all over it. Sexy seats and front will drive instead of crappy rwd.
A Chrysler Imperial never had front wheel drive unless you consider the one's made in the 80s or 90s. However, those hardly stack up to the Imperials of decades earlier. Chrysler makes good front wheel drive, but rear wheel drive is what I prefer. Also as to standing up to Toyota that's what Fiat claims. I fucking hate Toyota. Their cars look and drive like shit. Never will they compare to a Chrysler.
I drove one from Minnesota to Texas. It is one of the most uncomfortable cars I have ever been in. it's fine for short trips. But be in it for several hours. It killed my back.
all chrysler cars including dodge and jeep have a lot of problems with their tie rods. I had a bunch of customers come in for oil changes with new chrysler cars barely have 10,000 miles on them and their tie rods had much play. I wouldn't buy those cars but if you are planning to buy one you might as well take it to get some top of the line steering parts from somewhere else as soon ads you take it out the dealer so you won't damage the tires and get a V8 I've seen a lot of problems with the V6s
The original Chrysler 300 Letter Cars from 1955-1965 were so much better!!! I have been inside these cars and they are not that roomy and not that comfortable. Lincoln and Cadillac were a lot better. Even the older 90s 300's were nicer and more comfortable than these new ones.
Television shows in the USA all have music during the dialogues, too. Drives me nuts. I suspect that it has to do with such short attention spans of the 18-35 year old marketing targets, but I don't know.
+Mitul Jariwala How bout Getting your facts straight, new Tesla prices just announced and under 30k. they are cheap. do your research instead of arguing on instinct and rudness.
I remember looking at a new 05 300C, and though I liked the size and roomy interior, I still have the same gripes about it now, as I did then.. and some new 1's.. The car has no styling lines..The front end looks like 1 already smashed into something. No 300 crossbar grill as every 300 of the past did. Steering is still numb though better than the 05-09 models. Brakes are way better now than on the original 05. However, wtf is with the stupid rotary dial for a gear changer? Put a GD lever in it with PRNDL gates like it's supposed to have.. And why is the optional 5.7 Hemi downgraded in power, AGAIN? So 1 can run crap regular fuel? So old people can keep their depends clean? Nope not the car for me...
All true. The grill then became the trademark as did the red white and blue emblem, on both letter and non letter cars. I personally like that grill better, that's all. I like the new 300s for what they are, but I'll never own 1. I'd get a Charger if I were still in the large car market.
This car will die a slow death unless they can make it a gangster mobile like it was. Put in 8" high side windows, 24" wheels, and offer it only it black and sell a million.
As he said, it's THE LAST American large sedan, this car is a warmed up dinosaur and only proves how far behind the U.S. Automakers have fallen behind. Other manufacturers have out paced this piece of crap at all levels, even when it was new ten years ago it was an underdog. But now it's just a dog, a cheap and tacky dog.
marky0071 so whats wrong with large sedans? those large sedans from back then look a lot better than the ugly small SUV/CUVs that you see on the road today, not to mention the reason its as slow as it is is because its the v6 variant, the V8 will bring it up to atleast 5.7 seconds in a 0-60, the LEAST.

33 year old car guy here, and the 300S is pretty much the perfect car in my opinion (the non-S models do look pretty geriatric). It's a big body, Mercedes-derived sedan with an easy to tune, big American pushrod V8. It's super comfortable. The blackout trim makes it look menacing. The UConnect is so well-done it feels natural. It handles well enough for a luxury cruiser. It's a big car but it doesn't feel like a big car (i.e., you don't feel like you're sitting in a cockpit with miles of dashboard in front of you). It has digital gauges that tell you oil, coolant, and transmission temperatures in REAL TIME. And best of all, it's fast. You can tell Chrysler still employs some gearheads!

I've read that the Taurus and Impala are gone in 2019 or '20.
I don't think FCA has any FWD sedans planned, like at all. They have a few FWD CUVs and maybe a mini-truck.
I believe the 2019 is the last year for the 300. :/
They won’t because of the bad reputation of the Intrepid, Concorde, and 300M.
Terry Meadows hi from 2 years later. Your right! other then the impala but that would be in another 2 years prob 😂
Pretty impressive 0-60 from a v6 car weighing 4k lbs...
Can't beat the value of these things. Especially for the lightly used ones

I don't hate these cars. Which is odd, because I hate everything.
Which is same as, saying, I don't love everything, but I love this car❤️
Too bad there won't be a Hell Cat version of the 300. Imagine what kind of sleeper that could be!
WikdSeafood There isn't even a SRT version anymore. Although Car and Driver just had a story where they saw a test car that looked like one.
WikdSeafood That's what the Charger Hellcat is for.
WikdSeafood wow....great thought,i have a 2013 and I love the v8..... the hellcat would kill me lol
WikdSeafood Yes, but the 6.4L 300 SRT is also mighty fast and will smoke majority of cars out there anyway. But yea the hellcat 300 would be sick.
Personally, I like how the 300 SRT8 is understated compared to the Charger.
I have 2015 300limited and it is perfect in every aspect i love it, i am happy that i decided to buy chrysler
Instead of the rotary transmission selector, they should go to push buttons, Then it would be unique and old school MoPar at the same time!
I love mine - had her since new!
These are quite popular in Detroit

The Chrysler 300, great looking car and I still see the originals around though some are in bad shape which is a shame
I love my base 2012. Just hope they improve the seats in the 2015 on. They are hard and awkward.
A great American Sedan. I'd love the 2011-15 300 SRT
Love this car bought one 2 months ago and not one bad word about this car 5K miles put on went from 42K to 45K pretty nice
Brilliant engine in the 200, surprised me when I drove it!

Excellent review👍
I've wondered if the 3.6's are underrated the 2019 chargers are a bit quicker with the pentastar
Forever the "Blue Collar E-Class"
Mdos That is the most accurate description of the 300 I've ever heard😂
I love that car
Love u too
I had an '84 New Yorker (E-class) and I loved it. Bring back the K-car and its child, the Lebaron!
Beauty helmet Ben!
Anyone else think the new grille seems to hark back to the 2nd Gen LHS?
Whick was influenced by the 57-59 Chrysler 300 series.
Impressive speed for a heavy v6 powered car.
Best bang for your buck when it comes to large, comfortable cars...AND ITS RWD!
What if Chrysler made an Imperial or New Yorker trim for the 300. Wish they still made a 392 for the 300.
Great video
I drove the 13 300S with the hemi damn did it feel fast and smooth and good on gas going 85 mph
The headlights look similar to the Jeep Grand Cherokee, but the tail lights reminds me of Cadillac's LED tail lights from the 2002 model year.
Nice car and nice style
Do any of these have the Pentastar?
Most beautiful car ever
True dat!

Always likes these.
same here, but they are unreliable as F, when used.
Is it reliable? And why do these have a bad reputation?
Can you guys review the Cadillac XTS?
Does Motor Week ... have to do everything?
This was a tough decision, 2015 lincoln mkz or 2015 Chrysler 300. I went with the lincoln, while the 300 isn't a bad car it didn't match the lincolns handling and feel.
Um belo carro, porém o atual preço praticado nele aqui no Brasil é inviavel. Guiei um antes do facelift e foi uma experiencia muito maneira.
English please.
Looks like a 2000 Nissan Maxima from the front...I should know, I had one in that same red color.
The only thing I dislike about the 300C is that stupid rotary shiftier. Give me a big sturdy lever to hold on to in corners.
Yeah, they need to bring out that concept Chrysler Imperial.😕🙂🤓🤠😎😏👍✌️👋👏💪🌾🍀🌿🍃🇺🇸
fuck the AWD. i prefer the boatload of torque from that v8 and the ability to do tire shredding burnouts. if i want awd ill get a subaru
Daniel Diaz I agree with you. HEMI 5.7 is the way to go!!

2020 is the last year of the 300. End of an error.
Because Fiat doesn’t want a cheap American muscle car to beat their Maseratis and Fiats.
Stefan Unson What ever gets you to sleep at night.
Howard Roark I hope it’s not the reason but with Sergio gone things can change. The thing is though what can still make Chrysler stand on its own two feet is the HEMI engines and maybe its Pentastar.
So that means the Dodge Charger is gone too cause it's built on the same platform?
There’s a 2021 Chrysler 300

Would Chrysler be considered a luxury brand?
Mario Master 02 No, not since Fiat has restructured the brand. Chrysler will still make nice cars, but they will be designed to fight head on with Ford or Toyota. I think that Chrysler will still be higher quality.

all chrysler cars including dodge and jeep have a lot of problems with their tie rods. I had a bunch of customers come in for oil changes with new chrysler cars barely have 10,000 miles on them and their tie rods had much play.

The tie rod 'play' is normal... just ignore it...
Not true. That was during the Diamler days. The new 300 has few issues at 100,000 miles.

why do americans always put music in the way of commetry?

+Mitul Jariwala dude you are a moron lol fuck off bitch boi
+Mitul Jariwala How bout Getting your facts straight, new Tesla prices just announced and under 30k. they are cheap. do your research instead of arguing on instinct and rudness.
they fucked up the front end wow
A strange fact-- one of the best cars is a Chrysler... feel free to trash the primate enclose but it doesn't change anything-- Mopar rules.
They're the most unreliable "American" cars. GM and Ford make better cars than Fiat Chrysler.
I remember looking at a new 05 300C, and though I liked the size and roomy interior, I still have the same gripes about it now, as I did then.. and some new 1's.. The car has no styling lines..The front end looks like 1 already smashed into something. No 300 crossbar grill as every 300 of the past did. Steering is still numb though better than the 05-09 models. Brakes are way better now than on the original 05. However, wtf is with the stupid rotary dial for a gear changer? Put a GD lever in it with PRNDL gates like it's supposed to have.. And why is the optional 5.7 Hemi downgraded in power, AGAIN? So 1 can run crap regular fuel? So old people can keep their depends clean? Nope not the car for me...
All true. The grill then became the trademark as did the red white and blue emblem, on both letter and non letter cars. I personally like that grill better, that's all. I like the new 300s for what they are, but I'll never own 1. I'd get a Charger if I were still in the large car market.
time to retire this old outdated large sedan. FCA , its time to start from scratch with a new one that's lighter, sleeker and more fuel effecient.
+Rudy F The Lincoln Town Car and Cadillac Deville were so much better in every way. Those were the real big luxury sedans.
not everybody care about small and efficient cars, i dont
AMCNorthstar 93 I traded in my deville for my 300 and my 300 is a way way better car then the caddy in pretty much every way
Big is back, because bigger is better. USA-1
Nope I still like it, the Charger, and Chellenger. To hell with making cars sleeker and turbocharged
Endless money pit
You take care of it and it will do likewise
@@1983jblack still problem prone tho
This car will die a slow death unless they can make it a gangster mobile like it was. Put in 8" high side windows, 24" wheels, and offer it only it black and sell a million.
M DOSD You don't know shit lol
2016 Maxima will overtake this in an instant.
Dwiessner3221 Despite the fact that this is 200x more badass than a Nissan.
Dwiessner3221
lol...
Uh, ever heard of a GTR?
green93 Chrysler and badass?...huhh huhh....
S.T T. Apparently you aren't aware of the muscle car era...?
What a horrible, cheap review , it's more like a dull commercial
His reviews are more suited to selling steak knives.
Looks cheap.
As he said, it's THE LAST American large sedan, this car is a warmed up dinosaur and only proves how far behind the U.S. Automakers have fallen behind. Other manufacturers have out paced this piece of crap at all levels, even when it was new ten years ago it was an underdog. But now it's just a dog, a cheap and tacky dog.
marky0071 so whats wrong with large sedans? those large sedans from back then look a lot better than the ugly small SUV/CUVs that you see on the road today, not to mention the reason its as slow as it is is because its the v6 variant, the V8 will bring it up to atleast 5.7 seconds in a 0-60, the LEAST.

What does it matter to you if you don’t like it don’t buy it, there is plenty of car for your kind
