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.

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...

LX pricing by jackdev73

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.

solid doors on 300C by joelc

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.

To each his/her own when it comes to styling... by csandste

Although cab forward may be form over function this thing looks too bottom heavy for my eye. Funny because almost all German cars whether VW, Mercedes, Porsche, Audi or BMW are very attractively styled. Is this some kind of German revenge because of Iraq?

I don't know what you are talking about. My 300Ms doors closed with a very solid thunk.
 
I think you are referring to some other cars.

Chrysler 300C and Pacifca by oedipus1608

When the Pacifica was first went on sale, bad marketing and high end only models at the dealership caused slow sales. However, dealers never discounted the Pacifica to the 25-26k range. Sales of the Pacifica quickly increased and it now approaching its projected level of sales. Chrysler has said that they have learned from their mistakes with the Pacifica. The hemi powered 300C will have a base price of 35k and will probably escalate with options to over 40k. The 3.5 liter engine will base engine. The 2.7 will not be offered.

Just a commentary...... by soozpk

I sent this commentary to AllPar.com to post, but I don't think it ever was, so I'll do it here.
As a prospective buyer of a new 300C, (Brampon will begin to build them the second week of Jan 04), I have to say I have mixed feelings about it at this point in time.
I had been at my local dealership getting my '94 Lebaron Landau repaired, when I popped my
nose into the showroom. There was a Pacifica there, listed at $35,000 (US). Okay, I got in,
and my first impression was not the layout, or comfort, but how cheap the blue pvc plastic
made the interior. Get this, NO woodgrain, whatsoever. I have LOTS of woodgrain on my Lebaron dash, AND, of course, that's just plastic. At 35,000 bucks, one must have some
perception of luxury, so toss in the woodgrain, at least. From the pics of the 300C's interior
that I've seen, the dash is also pretty much devoid of woodgrain also. Which brings me to
another possible problem. The 300C concept car has two different sized tires (wider on rear)
and I believe as does the production CrossFire. I do hope I'm wrong in this regard, as surely
there's no room in the trunk for two different sized tires. What size does the Crossfire come with????? Again, I hope I'm wrong on this.
