chrysler 300c

its diesel and has a V6 3 litre engine,automatic. was very rapid,but braking distance was too long as there was so much weight to hold back. but hes not to keen now after having the car for 48 hours. £28k brand new :shock:

[MattyH16valver]

Looks like a Bentley...probably as heavy too!

[lewis_willy2]

my local hairdresser has a black 1 same spec with 22's on, looks pretty pimp, alot of car tho very big

[Totti]

I have heard that these cars are in quite high demand?

[MAXIBOY]

[darrenm1eqn]

Friend of mine drove the 6.1L hemi-V8 version in Sydney and said it was like a driving a small house that out-run WRXes. Firm riding for yank suspension but still not great into corners, obviously.

I think he might have been referring to the SRT8 version, which isn't as slow as hell at all :shock:

Cool cars. And they hold their money pretty well for a big exec too.

[FATBOY]

well for a diesel it was very very quick! you cant even hear that its a diesel too! well the mpg was not to good (12mpg apparently) and the interior was very cheap looking too. and yeah it is a very gangster pimp mobile!!!

There 425 BHP, fast (in a straight line) but nowhere near M5 speeds.

On my Jeremy clarksons heaven or hell the m5 whooped the 300c srt8 in a straight line...

they said it was only single cam anyway though?

I was just saying that they're pretty damn fast (as you've just agreed...in a straight line!) and not exactly slow as hell. :)

Either way, an E39 M5 gets my vote every time 8)
