    It's a shame how Chrysler let the 300 get old and die, it was such a cool and mean looking car when it first came out but it's just been ignored for 10 years. If Chrysler put some effort into the 300 like Ram has done, the 300 would be a big hit.

    I had a white charger hellcat and after driving the 6.4 charger I found very little difference. The limit of what you can get to translate to the ground with traction limitations was the reason. In the end my hellcat had some serious quality control issues and was repurchased by FCA after only 11 months. I'm glad they took such good care of me because other manufacturers probably wouldn't have, but that's a lot of money to put out to have tons of problems in return.

      I've never had Hellcat money or a desire to own a Charger. But when I wanted a 300 I could have tracked down and bought either a SRT8 or 5.7 AWD. I went with the 5.7 AWD for this reason, traction is more important. I can add power to a 5.7, swap it, etc. I can't put more traction in a SRT8.

      The base headlights are ehhh, but the top option headlights are fantastic, very well focused HIDs with self leveling and steering.

    The Chrysler 300 SRT was sold in Australia for a long time until December 2021 with the Pacer Edition being the final edition. Sad to see it go.

    It would be amazing if Chrysler can bring back the 300 sedan in the future as an all-electric performance sedan. It would be even more spacious on the interior bc it wouldn't have that center transmission/ drivetrain tunnel in the second row. And it's desparately needed a new interior for several years now since the last 2015 refresh which makes the current interior 7-8 years old (with this being a 2023 model), & not to mention this is a thirsty gas guzzler even with the 8 speed automatic & RWD. And with the current gas prices (even they've been dropping), who is actually going to buy this?

      Yeah instead of a tunnel it'll have a floor full of batteries, much better... NOT.
