2007 Chrysler 300C Professional Cars.com ReviewSource: Cars.com...Though supremely quiet most of the time, the Hemi V-8 delivers a satisfying note when accelerating hard. Steering and stability feel even more certain and secure in the 300C, which takes winding mountain roads confidently. Engine response is virtually immediate, and passing/merging reactions are seriously energetic. Better yet, the five-speed automatic transmission is near-perfect. Snow and ice performance with the electronic stability system is amazing. Even if you tromp the gas on a snow-packed curve, the system kicks in immediately to keep the car on course. On the downside, you might feel... |

2007 Chrysler 300C Professional Cars.com ReviewSource: Cars.com...Apparently, though, there are plenty of customers willing to pay that price for the SRT8, and I can see why: It's a big five-passenger sedan, with a cavernous trunk, that's equally at home at the drag strip or carving through twisty backroads as it is at the country club.

2007 Chrysler 300C Professional Cars.com ReviewSource: Cars.com...A larger 3.5-liter V-6 is rated at 19/27; and an SRT model with a smaller Hemi, a 5.7-liter V-8 with 340 horsepower, is EPA-rated at 17/25. That's for 2007. As I mentioned previously, the EPA has recalibrated its mileage tests for 2008 to more closely reflect the real world, and that means the ratings go down. That 2.7-liter V-6 that is EPA-rated at 21 mpg city, 28 highway, would be rated at 18/26 for 2008. And the poor 300C SRT8 with that 6.1-liter engine -- the 2008 model's window sticker would read 13/18 instead of the current 14/20. Buzz-kill squared. Enough about fuel mileage, because if... |
