- After 12 years of being on the market the #chrylser300 is being retired. Luckily I get a chance to review the #300c with the 6.4L #hemi #v8 . Is this rwd #sedan still relevant in todays changing market? I think it is more relevant now than it was a decade ago.

It’s ancient but it’s fun. I mean that 6.4L v8 and zf 8 speed combo are perfection
If you’ve never driven a 392 hemi, they rip and sound great! 👍
Last of the Mohicans....I miss the big Usa sedans so much. Over and out the days of the New Yorker, Continental, Town Cars etc. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
People are going to miss V8s once they are gone.
Well, lots of us are going to miss ICE once the mandates make them gone.
I have the black one but I know someone who bought one In every single color white, red , black lol and 2 170s
Are the tires too thin for that kind of horsepower
@@joeyl1939 yea waaayy to skinny! I can’t launch
6.4L Hemi.... LOL. The car the world forgot.
Since when? These are relics of our time!
@@SARGENTDOODLE haha. I'm sure there's an assembly line somewhere in America that management forgot was still operating building this....the Milton with his red swinger stapler of assembly lines....
@@kevinn1158You're very delusional
What are you talking about lmaooo
@@chronickk_392 chronickk…. The man the world forgot.
I didn't like this car when it was first introduced, but with the disappearance of most other old-school gas sedans, its kinda grown on me.
Kirkball: do a back to the future style hover conversion on this puppy and make it electric powered too. This would be accretive for your numbers.
Nice ride. I have a 2020 300S 5.7L. Use 93 E0 almost exclusively, meaning some areas only have 93 E10 (I add an ethanol fuel additive). I can peg 34 mpg on level highways with the cruise control set at the speed limit. Averaging 18 mpg combined driving. Still less than 15,000 miles - dealers are after me to trade it. A number of 300Cs sitting on dealer lots around the nation....
Kirk, I love the engine sound except the lack of pops and crackles and the disconnected driving dynamics. What other cars would you recommend that would check these boxes? CTS-V? I don’t mind a 6 cylinder or even smaller if it means I get all of the above (Hyundai N-line? GR Corolla?)
Put it in sport mode and it pops
You need to put transmission on S for better paddle shifter response
Mopar rules!
Awesome
How the world has changed! An American saying 21mpg is ‘terrible’.
If you’re going to make a video on a car, try taking a look at options on it before hitting record. If you cared to highlight the Drive Modes on it, you would’ve seen how the driving dynamics and shift-points and sound with the transmission options would’ve heavily changed the sound and feel of the car. Also, you just compared this to a Mazda 6? 🤦🏻♂️
I think calling it a luxury car misses the mark, because it simply doesn't measure up to other luxury cars. It's also not the same price. It's just a nice, normal car. It's not over-styled, and it looks like an adult would drive it. It's a great dad car.
It's a better dad car with the Pentastar V6. Unless the dad is an unrepentant Leadfoot who likes to smoke younger drivers.
@@RagShop1 No way, dads need more power
I guess a charger is a dad car as well
@@dvsjnthn21 Only with the V6. With the HEMI, it's a way different animal!
Still a Luxury Car, just not a European Luxury Car, which obviously that's not what the Chrysler 300 is
It is sad that classic american sedans are dieing. Me, as a european, always love the old and more modern TV Shows where you are able to see classic american sedans.
These floaty boaty sedans.
I wish they would get a comeback.
Now that are american car brands know build quality and make cars reliable and efficient, they deserve and need a comeback.
With turbo 4, V6/R6 turbo, or electric. Or smaller V8? 😅 They have to come back!
I feel like i'd be better off sticking with my current Jaguar STR(supercharged V8). I was doing some research and the power/weight ratio favours the Jag, being at least 1000lbs lighter and only 85 less hp. 🤔
it's a very unnecessary car. I mean v8 in a basic looking car for what? Not meant to go fast not meant to look nice neither. Just basic car with a v8 that chugs gas unnecessarily.
Just think for all that money you still get the hemi tic. Too soon
Its always best to deactivate the MDS system so it always runs on all 8 cycilenders lifters are known to fail an fall into piston
Leave it in sport mode
I hope Chrysler replaces this with a true big old comfort oriented EV luxury sedan
This 2011 car is nothing more than a reskin of the 2005 version, which is really just a reskinned decontented mid 90s E Class Mercedes.
And?
Too bad still no DOHC V8 to end the 300C lineup. SAD......
Doesn't need one... buy a Mustang
So a 20 year old platform that is based on the W211 with cheap plastic interior is an American Dream?
Y'all need to dream bigger.
Most surfaces are leather, including the dashboard. What cheap plastic are you talking about?
You know an engine is getting old when rivals can do the same power with less gas. The hurricane engine had to happen.
The entertainment system is so bad on these its embarassing
Yeap mines rattles the rear speaker tray because of the HK system smh
MEH... Another crappy Chryco!! I honestly didn't even know that they still made the 300... I thought they discoed that like 10 years ago and I live about 3 miles from where they are made. They also make the crappy Chargers and Challengers there too. Think the plant will be shuttered soon as all 3 of these are going EOL.
You're definitely a bot...
@@moparfam300c I'm a bot because Chryco makes crappy cars?? SURE...
@@davet7184 Even misspell like a bot...
I own 2 300's and build quality has been great. No rattles, nothing coming loose and I have 275,000 on my '06. They're solid, reliable cars and the factory they're made in is probably the best one Stellantis has. But unless you own one you won't know now will you?
