What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of 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) |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2007 | 2dr Hatch 330-horsepower 3.2L I6 6-speed manual RWD |
Due to poor sales the local dealers were offering cars a dealer invoice |
| 2003 | 2dr Convertible 225-horsepower 3.0L I6 6-speed manual RWD |
Its a great value used, not so much new. |
