Why should I also consider these?
In its current form, the 2009 Chrysler 300 faces off against a variety of sedans.
The base, Limited, and Touring models of the 300 can be compared to domestic competitors, including the Mercury Montego and Buick Lucerne.
Compared to the Chrysler, these domestic sedans are wallflowers, while there’s a certain presence on the outside and a classy feel inside that still distinguishes the 300.
Dynamically, the 300 feels more athletic than these cars as well.
Of particular interest to some, the Montego offers all-wheel drive, and while the Buick doesn't, it is available with V-8 power.
If you are considering the 2009 Chrysler 300C, the list of competitors changes dramatically.
With its HEMI V-8, tighter suspension, and premium interior, the 300C is a legitimate alternative to Cadillac's CTS and STS.
The Chrysler's driving dynamics and quality are also comparable to those of the BMW 5-Series and Audi A6, although the 300 feels heftier in tight corners.
When one remembers that the 300 was developed when Chrysler was owned by Mercedes-Benz, the 300C's competitiveness is less of a surprise and more of a reasonable conclusion.
