I just bought one of these and am impressed with the build quality. Dash is seamlessly put together. Ride is very smooth and quiet. Power is ample and very drivable with quick downshifts when needed. Also excellent gas mileage for such a large roomy car.

I've had a 2015 300S since virtually new, and it's been holding up fine without any issues. I had a Dodge Ram 1500, which I sold at 260,000 miles without any power-train issues. I have friends with older 300s and Magnums with over 250,000, and even a couple over 300,000 miles.

I think what really kills the acceleration even on the V6 is the final drive even with an 8 speed auto - factory isn't it a 2.73 ? - 8 gears - even a 3.23/3.27 would help drastically but not ruin fuel economy (for those worried about gas mileage) - that super low final drive kills all acceleration on the V6 - the ZF box is fantastic but yeah.... love the 300 regardless

Actually a nice car. Just be careful, if you find drops of oil on the garage floor or driveway, replace the oil cooler immediately, preferably with an all aluminum cooler, not the plastic cooler the factory installs on all Pentastar v6's. Due to heat from the engine the cooler is subject to developing leaks over time and eventual catastrophic failure. It happened to me, still like the car though.

I just have test driven my friend's 2013 chrysler 300 V6 and i was shocked of how much cheap material was involved in the interior, the engine and the transmission felt a litle rough but they were responsive, and the way i heard the sound of the engine made me feel that chrysler was made lots of shortcuts of isolating the cabin and this is no good for a car that is marketed as a premium sedan. although it's a rear wheel drive sedan and the way it looks on the road attract people's eyes around you. It just needs some little tweaks.

@OSTKCabal 7 жыл бұрын

The 2015s and up are a huge improvement over the 2013 models. By that time, the 2013s were in dire need of an update, and I think Chrysler waited a couple years too long to refresh the interior.

@husseinadil6290 7 жыл бұрын

WarmSoftKitty Sadly I'm not lying, this was my experiment with this car. Can you prove that the cabin is well isolated? If i have never driven one then how i felt the sound proofing is poor? I'm not going to be aggressive with you sir, but from my understanding this car looks like your first premium sedan so you felt that I'm lying. So, tell me please how do you see the quality of the black plastics around the info screen between the tachometer and the speedometer? and how do you see the quality of the center console? If you were comparing this car to a hyundai accent then sure it will have a premium interior and i would be a liar.

Sir, with all due respect, have you test one or you are saying this just because it's a toyota?

@husseinadil6290 7 жыл бұрын

We are talking about affordable premium options not the top end sedans, are you with me in this matter? I believe the 300 is marketed far from it's true position, if it was truly fit the description then we should have seen more selling numbers for this model. I hope for the best, because i myself love RWD cars.
