Chrysler 300 Company Car

Chrysler300 seems to be my best choice. Anybody have any experience with these? It's free: gas, plates, insurance, everything so it's no loss if it's a crappy car really. Is it a decent car? What's the good, the bad and the ugly? And our selections are a chrysler or a chrysler. Thanks for any insights.

I've driven the 6 cyl model and it's still pretty quick but the car is heavy. Otherwise I think it's fine.

On a related note the first Chrysler 300 is my favorite car ever. It's considered the first muscle car.

Grain of salt and all, but enjoy it anyway. http://driving.timesonline.co.uk/tol...icle654813.ece

It's one of the most purchased mid priced luxury cars in America right now. The styling is one people really love or hate.

Not sure of the quality, as I've sworn never to buy a domestic car again after my Buick, but for looks....I'd go for the 300C over the 300M

The chassis is very good since it`s based on the Mercedes E? class, but other than that it`s a crappy car.

Thumbs Up:

Great, solid chassis
Lots of space (interior and trunk)
Affordable, yet somewhat luxurious design

Thumbs Down:
Everything they add to the chassis is crap (suspension, engine, interior fit and finish, etc.)

Verdict: Nice and large, mid-luxury car if you`re not paying for it.

It's the nicest looking Chrysler.

Nice Porsche. Is it a 911 or Boxster?

Just a Boxster S. I wanted a convertible over track performance. And I just like the design of the Boxster. I'm such a girly man

Why is it girly? The Boxster is a better platform. If only Porsche wouldn't handicap it.

I was just playing with the view some people like to joke about. I don't really believe it's a girly car. True enough, hence why the Cayman S(suped up boxster) and the GT are designed as mid engine, but Porsche isn't going to let the Cayman S outperform the 911 for now on the track. Too bad, because they could be creating an amazing vehicle along the lines of the GT at a 911 price point.

Cayman is amazing! Oh yeah and the 300C, for free why not? Hell I would drive a lot worse than a 300C if everything was free.

Actually if you stripped it of amenities and only put on "˜sport' options, you could make it at least 10K cheaper than a 911.

I dunno. It kinda looks like a Bentley.

Seriously. It is a typical business persons car. Like the Taurus was back in the day.
