Had one of these Chrysler 300's in front of me this morning. I thought they were quick. He booted it and I easily caught him up. Just found out they're under 200hp. Nice looking car, but shame that the 5 litre V8 is choked so much.

it would be a different story if it was the hemi engined one though. not sure which one you have seen but it must have been the 2.7L or 3.5L v6 one to be under 200bhp. here are the specs of the hemis. they are a big heavy lump though tbh.

 

 

standard specs:

 

bhp @ rpm 340 @ 5000

torque @ rpm 390 @ 4000

0-60 mph, sec 5.8

 

 

and the new srt8 is over 400bhp.

They are just big barge's with the aerodynamics of a brick... however they have potential to be a lot better than what they are

They are so popular over here in Cali. I've lost count of the ones I've seen riding around on 22" chromes.

Love the estate car version with the Bentley style front grille!

The SRT-8 =425 horsepower, coming from a 6.1 litre Hemi!

Mafia Cars IMO, boot big enough for a couple of bodies. :(

I like em,

They also do a diesel version perhaps that is what is was??

A friends dad has one and since they are loaded my mate not only has his own car but is insured on his dads 07 Chyrsler 300 and 06 Range Rover and i have to say the first time i got into one i was disappointed aswell but its good craic cruising up the road wit four young lads in it cause the looks we get are unreal but yes his dad is disappointed aswell and is looking to get rid of it!

dont like them. Trying to looking like a bentley or Rolls but dont pull it off because it actually looks like it was made on the cheap. The brits are the only ones who can make luxury cars and anyone who buys one of them thinking they look like Earl Big'ed the third are truely kidding themselves!

I agree totally. Saw one on the M1 last week in Black looked the dogs "B's"

I think they are quality, remind me a bit of the old rover P5B

i had a 2.7 one for rental while we were in florida it wasnt quick but great to drive and looks the biz

i like them, and werent they the least depreciating car of last year???

Saw one outside the chippy the other day, a black hemi sitting on some big chromes and with limo black windows all round. I expected to be shot instantly for just looking at it lol, how I sniggered to myself when a 40-something middle class woman hopped out of it :D

i like them alot tbh

The estate version is called the Magnum.
