Reviews
- "Running the gamut from practical to profound, the 2008 Chrysler 300 is an appealing choice for a full-size sedan, particularly for buyers who appreciate rear-wheel-drive performance."—Edmunds.com1
- "Acceleration with the 2.7-liter V6 is weak, but the boldly styled 300 is otherwise a Best Buy blend of performance, roominess, and value. The startling SRT8 outpowers cars costing twice as much with little compromise of the 300's other virtues."—ConsumerGuide2
