Pros: Gutsy V6, ample torque. Refined interior. Good seating position.
Cons: Front wheel drive. Auto Stick has a mind of its own.
The Bottom Line: This is a great sport touring car for the family guy. Ample room for passengers, but it has the power and handling to make for an engaging drive.
In the spring of 2004, I received a call from my father stating that he had just bought a new car. Intrigued, I questioned him on what it was. When he told me it was a silver 2000 Chrysler 300M, I immediately thought to myself, "Man, I can't wait to ...

Pros: Very ergonomic, even for tall folks, Quick, takes corners fast, tight control, roomy
Cons: Typical Chrysler Styling, a little lacking in headroom
I'm a big guy.
I mean it. I'm a BIG GUY. 6'4" tall, deep into the 200's, and mostly a "Large SUV" kinda guy.
My wife's car was a Maroon 93 Buick Skylark (which I not-so-affectionately called the...

Pros: Good Car, Engine
Cons: Styling, Is it that different from the Intrepid?
I have been doing some research on the Chrysler LH cars (Concorde, LHS, 300M, and Dodge Intrepid). I have found that the three Chrysler versions are very, very similar. I have some books from auto shows about these cars. Actually the LHS and 300M are...

Pros: style, power, luxury, sportiness, interior room
Cons: leather is a little stiff, fake wood trim on dash
The Bottom Line: If you are a driving enthusiast looking for a 4 door vehicle, the 300M deserves your serious consideration.
I have always been a car guy and I have always liked fast cars. My previous vehicles included a 1985 Mazda RX7, a 1988 Mustang LX 5.0, a 1986 Buick Regal Grand National, and a 1998 Pontiac Formula. In the fall of 2000, it became painfully clear to me...

Pros: Luxurious
Cons: None
Originally designed for the European market, the Chrysler 300M has become a huge hit with American customers, thanks to its unique blend of virtues.
Although most domestic luxury cars still appear to be the result of a bigger-is-better philosophy,...

Pros: none
Cons: none
The autostick is fun, but a mixed bag. It is fun when it works, but the transmission is a little too intelligent for my taste. Perhaps I am an unusual driver, but when in traffic I drive conservatively, and tend to let it go on the open road when there...

Pros: Fast and luxurious in one package
Cons: size and manufacturer
This is a well-rounded car if I have ever seen one. The 300M has a really nice sound system, pickup, and interior. The car is very attractive on the outside. It is probably the best american car that I have ever driven. That again is it's problem in...

Pros: Sharp Design, Handles well, Gutsy
Cons: Gas Mileage, Rain drips into interior when windows are cracked open.
The Bottom Line: I'd buy it again
Let me first qualify my review with the fact that I've never owned a car that was less than five years old in my life-I've always felt new/newer cars were WAY overpriced. I purchased my 2000 300M used in Oct of 2004. When initially looking I was ...

Author's Product Rating:  Recommended: No 
Pros: Looks cool, handles great, nifty dashboard. Nice for the weekend road trip.
Cons: Bad visibility, lagging transmission, no skip-protection on the CD player.
The Bottom Line: If you're looking for handling go to BMW .... if you're looking for comfort go to Cadillac.
This car is very comfortable. I love being able to sit cross-legged in the front passenger seat (I'm 6'). It's very quiet and with the handling package, taking curves at high speed is great fun. However, I could never actually see the front/back/sides of ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Great Cruiser, trouble free, fast, handles very well, good for tall people
Cons: A little big, some road noise, stereo lacks bass/depth
The Bottom Line: Very reliable, great ride, large interior, fast acceleration. I recommend it!
After doing exhaustive research, I finally bought my 300M in December of 2001. Outside: Sleek styling, nice curves, rear of the car is a little funny, but it looks all around "cool"! I also have the chrome rims which, when clean, shine like a mirror ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: No
Pros: Power, style and room
Cons: Faulty Electrical, rapid tire wear
I was attracted to the 300m by it's look and Chrysler retro advertising. I looked at several vehicles and thought the 300m was the most powerful (253 hp) in it's class and was thousands of dollars less expensive.
Initially I was very...

Pros: Roomy, smooth ride, spacious trunk.
Cons: Too many gizmos, tricky gear shift.
The Bottom Line: It was an interesting experience testing out this fancy, upscale sedan, but I personally don't like cars that try to outthink me. Other drivers may disagree.
I rented this vehicle for a week of intensive driving during a trip in and around Colorado (mountain terrain, city, desert). Good mileage, very roomy, and the engine was as quiet and powerful as one could ask. But the model I got was filled with...
