What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the the Chrysler 300
| Price of the Chrysler 300: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic RWD | Heavy discount from near-$40K sticker price as one might expect from a year-old "new" car still in dealer inventory. This fact, coupled with numerous factory incentives and low APR financing cinched the deal. In short, I bought $40K car for $30K. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic RWD | With all the discounts available, the price was great. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 178-horsepower 2.7L V6 4-speed automatic RWD | Low overall |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD | Truly one of the best cars for the price. I purchased it when Mercedes owned Chrysler, so I got Mercedes-quality parts within a gorgeous American-designed body. |

| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 2.7L V6 4-speed automatic RWD | A lease was higher than it should have been. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD | Car payments could have bought me a bimmer (BMW) |

What Our Members Are Saying about Chrysler 300 Materials and Workmanship
| Available Features of the Chrysler 300: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Sedan 292-horsepower 3.6L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
The fit and finish are rich and luxurious |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
The materials and workmanship is on par with the best. Easy on the eyes. |
| Materials and Workmanship of the Chrysler 300: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic RWD |
The paint on the outside of the car scratches very easily. The dashboard has mis-aligned panels and there are a number of rattles and clunks coming from inside the dashboard. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Everything looks ok, but for a car as expensive as this, I expect better than the aforementioned speaker problems. I will say the paint still looks great after 4 years, and the car is not garaged. |

SUN EXPOSURE HAS CAUSED SOME INTERIOR PLASTIC WARPAGE, AND, OF COURSE, ANY AND ALL SERVICING IS MORE EXPENSIVE THAN OTHER CARS (UNLESS YOU HAVE A MASERATI), BUT CAR REPAIRS IN GENERAL ARE BECOMING MORE EXPENSIVE FOR ALL CARS AS TIME GOES ON. |
