#37 of 4893 ehaase 3.8 naw by jediknight2b Oct 16, 2003 (7:44 pm)
We have a Grand Caravan with the 3.8, I hate that motor. It is noisy, rattles, slower than the M by a long shot. I just put off getting a '04 M to "wait and see" what the "C" looks like in person. I think it is better looking in the darker colors than the light.

jediknight2b, from what have seen I like the light colours better . But heck I really like them all
#39 of 4893 300? by guyquinn Oct 19, 2003 (8:54 pm)
If you placed a 300C and a 300M next to each other, you would have no idea they were from the same line. What's with completely throwing away the great 300M package and starting something totally new?

The 300C is a completely different kind of car with no relationship to the 300M. Replies to this message: velostic (Mar 07, 2005 5:26 pm) coby03 (Mar 07, 2005 7:49 pm) intrepidspirit (Mar 08, 2005 11:01 am) velostic (Mar 08, 2005 11:47 pm) and 1 more... dkrhardy (Mar 09, 2005 7:58 am)
#41 of 4893 300M vs. 300C by bmorisette Oct 20, 2003 (8:11 am)
guyquinn - I love the 300M but lets be honest, it is just a dressed up Chyrysler Concorde/Intrepid/LHS with a slightly better engine. Chrysler was whoring the heritage of the 300 series be reviving it for this car. I personally think the 300C is more deserving of the legacy of the 300 series. Who would of ever thought Detroit (via Hamburg, but who's counting) would ever produce a rear wheel drive V-8 car that wasn't designed with cop/cab duty in mind. I just had a terrible thought - imagine th 300C with a light bar. Crickey! Talk about menacing. If DC carries this concept to the Intrepid, they may enjoy some fleet sales to PD's around the country again.

Is no more a Letter car then the 300M was. The letter cars were known for their style Cutting age designs. (the 300M fits this better then the 300C) which looks almost exactly like a Bently (except for the lo beam headlight). The Letter cars were known for their power. Here the 300C may have an edge over the M. They were also all two door covertables or coupes. Here Both fail. So is the 300C a true letter car, you have to say no. The 300HemiC was the only Car Chrysler produced in the last 10 years that could claim that title.

I am the one that said the New honda's IMHO look better the the New Chrylser's comming out, and I still stand by that. I have a 99 300M and still think it is one of the best looking cars (especially for a four door) Auto mags still say the LH are the best looking 4 door sedans on the road. I have not heard anyone say anything even positive about the LX sedans. And Putting a 2.7L into such a heavey vehicle, what are they thinking. Even the 3.5L in it will be slower then the stock M. It is a shame the the chrysler vehicles insted of looking like cars of the future will look like cars the past. (the PT at least looks good). It is too bad they killed the only true successor to the Letter throne the 300HemiC. Hopefully in another 5 years they will not make the same mistake.
#44 of 4893 The 300C might make a great cop car....... by andys120 Oct 20, 2003 (2:12 pm)
It's roomy looking and ought to be faster than the GM/CV twins with a hemi underhood.   The menacing look is a bonus.

"is just a dressed up Chyrysler Concorde/Intrepid/LHS with a slightly better engine. Chrysler was whoring the heritage of the 300 series be reviving it for this car. I personally think the 300C is more deserving of the legacy of the 300 series."   The 300M was Motor Trend's Car of the Year for 1999.   Any bets on the 300C?   BTW, the LHS had the same engine.
#46 of 4893 Considering some of the clunks by andys120 Oct 20, 2003 (3:47 pm)
that have won COTY awards, Chrysler had better hope MT passes over the 300C.
