Too bad about some of this car’s qualities. I know they make it more endearing and muscle car-ish to many, but for me they keep it from moving from “cars I love” to “cars I would actually want to buy”. I do love it though. It’s just so badass.

Too bad about the interiors, though

That’s the main gripe I have with them. I can live without a Merc-level interior in a car like this, but I’ve been in several of these. The quality of the materials really lives up to every Clarksoneque simile you’ve ever hear. It’s dismal.

When it was introduced though, all the critics were like “hey, chrysler’s FINALLY figuring it out!”

10 years later and it makes me puke

Really... I have strong feeling the other way with these, always wannabe gangsters. Maybe I’ve been programmed, most people get a Euro or Japanese car here in SF and the only people I see in these have horrible rims and creep up next to me with loud music and try to make everyone at the light notice them.

That’s the normal, non-SRT version.

I liked mine a lot while I had it. It got more attention than I ever thought it would. It was a 300c Hemi not an SRT, but Flowmaster dual exhaust wasn’t very subtle.

At the time, I thought this was as good as Chrysler was going to get. The interior was a Fischer Price nightmare and the panel fit was shit, but it was like 90% of the way there, and that was the closest Chrysler had come in 30 years.

The, the current 300 came out and narrowed the quality gap to like 99.5%.
