#4 of 4893 I hope they don't call it the N by 300michael Aug 17, 2003 (4:38 am)
Like libertycat, I was saddened to see the Cab forward look go. They have been some of the best looking 4 door car designs to ever hit the road. The new "C" has nothing to do with the M. The M was a stylish 4 door with good handling and Power. The C will have more power (offser by more weight) and looks like a small Bentley instead of a Chrysler. IMHO they set Automotive design back 30 years. I have an M and looks like I will be keeping it until the "P" models come out. Sad to say the Honda's are going to be better looking vehicles. To bad Chrysler lost all its best people to GM.
#5 of 4893 More on the 300 by jackdev73 Aug 18, 2003 (9:48 am)
I can believe someone would say that Honda has better looking vehicles (Honda = "boring!") then the new 300. I personally find the new 300 to be absolutely beautiful. I currently own a 2001 LHS and love it. The styling to me is still beautiful and fresh. Regardless, I cant wait to trade it in on the new 300. I found out from a local dealership (whether its true or not) that they were told there will be three 300 models, a base called simply 300 with the 2.7 liter V6, a mid range 300 Touring with the 3.5 liter V6 from the 300M, and the top 300C with the hemi V8. Sounds good to me. When can I order mine?
#6 of 4893 welcome change! by dbinkley1 Aug 21, 2003 (10:22 pm)
While the cab-forward was a huge success for Chrysler, and the others who copied them, it was a disaster for CARS! In my opinion, the cab forward design, that so many raved about, was all about form, and not function! Numbers will show, that minivan, and SUV sales soared, as car sales plummeted, as families attempted to find an affordable alternative to the "slanted sedans" of the '90's. Nothing quite like banging your head, entering, and exiting your sleek ride! I welcome the 300C, and hope that Chrysler will keep a comparable, and affordable front drive sedan around for all of us in the snow belt!!!

An word on what the neww 300c (or 300n) will sticker at?
#8 of 4893 by jjgittes Aug 25, 2003 (2:15 pm)
Also, will this car be a replacement for the Concorde too? Or just the 300m? There is a shortage of moderately priced large cars out there. The crown vic is kind of a dinosaur (the five-hundred just doesn't look big enuf, guess we'll see...), chevy has nothing, and the rest start at $40-50k plus(MB500, BMW7s, Audi8s, big Caddys, etc). Maybe there just is not a market for them, but I'd love to see some more big american sedans with attitude, priced well, with some 21st century technolgy to make them handle and get decent mileage without hurting performance. Too much to ask for maybe.

All the cab forward (LH) cars will be replaced. The last one was made last week in Brampton.   Chrysler has displayed some concept cars over the past couple of years, but the 300C is the only announced production vehicle. It is due to hit the market near the end of February, 2004.   Don't know what the sticker will be, but I would guess a base of high 30's to low 40's.

Wow, high 30's and up?!?! Too rich for me. Maybe I am a just dinosaur, and a cheap one at that, when it comes to pricing of cars these days. Replies to this message: supernurseman (Sep 19, 2004 6:19 am) hardhawk (Sep 19, 2004 4:21 pm) michaelg1 (Sep 19, 2004 5:21 pm)
#11 of 4893 jigittes...just a guess! by intrepidspirit Aug 27, 2003 (3:12 pm)
But the Pacifica came out high (32-40k) and very quickly the low-ended models were discounted by dealers to the 25-26k range.   If the 300C is produced with a 2.7 litre engine, they may dip down to around 30k MRSP and be available in the 25k range fairly quickly, depending on demand. The 3.5L and hemi will of course be higher.   Again, just a guess...
#12 of 4893 LX pricing by jackdev73 Aug 28, 2003 (1:18 pm)
I have a feeling that Chrysler wont totally abandon their current customers in their effort to move up the price ladder. I believe there will be a 300 model, possibly the base 300 with the 2.7 in the hight 20s to around 30 with the Touring model with the 3.5 in the low to mid 30s. Just a guess and I hope I am right. Any firm answers when the first cars will arrive in showrooms? I would order one without driving it at this point. The anticipation is killing me.

#13 of 4893 solid doors on 300C by joelc Sep 01, 2003 (8:15 pm)
I hope DaimlerChrysler will figure out a way to make the doors slam solid on the new 300C. The Concord Limited and 300M sound tinny for 30+ K dollar cars. Maybe they could buy doors from Buick. It is a great looking car, read in Motor Trend it would be around $35,000.
