2008 Chrysler 300 Review

With its sleek design and classic luxury car attributes, the 2008 Chrysler 300 is definitely an eye appealing full size sedan. Most full size sedans don't generate a whole lot of excitement, but the 300 with its edgy design, roomy and plush interior and V8 engine has changed all that.

Luxury, practicality and performance are just about perfectly mated in this 4 door, full size, 5 passenger luxury sedan. The flared fenders, low roof and clean overhangs, combined with a stunning front and rear fascia are certainly worthy of the typical head turning as it eases down the road or speeds past its admirers. But is there more to it than quality build materials and an eye catching exterio? Yes, there is.

A limited lifetime power train warranty accompanies all eight available trim styles including the base model 300LX, which comes equipped with a 2.7 liter V6 that delivers 178 horsepower and t3.5 liter V6 equipped mid range models that produce 250 horsepower-and both are available in either rear or all wheel drive configurations. The 300C comes standard with an impressive 5.7 liter Hemi V8 that puts out 340 horsepower and the top of the line 300C SRT8 is powered by a 6.1 liter V8 yielding a whopping 425 horsepower. Handling is responsive and smooth and the ride from inside sounds oh so quiet and lavishly comfortable.

The simply elegant and sophisticated interior design is achieved with a delicately balanced combination of soft to the touch materials, LED accent lighting and unobtrusive yet visually striking brushed aluminum and wood grain interior trims. The comfort of the driver and passengers is almost ensured by the abundant cabin dimensions, though the trunk space suffers and only offers a little over 15.5 cubic feet of storage space. The base model LX is well equipped with power seats, air conditioning, tilt steering wheel, keyless entry and a premium CD/MP3 audio system with auxiliary jack. Upscale models add larger wheels, leather upholstery and more.

Overall, the combination of German engineering and American design that define the 2008 Chrysler 300 makes wherever you go in this luxury sedan a most pleasurable ride.
