What Owners are Saying About the 2005 Chrysler 300

"Outstanding"

"When I was on the market for a new car, the 300C caught my eye and I have never looked back on my purchase. Great power, outstanding comfort, spacious interior and large trunk. Handling is by far the best for a vehicle of this size and weight. The sound system, Boston, is superbly balanced and with minimal distortion at window breaking levels. After 3 years I still get 26MPG on the highway and 20 in town, unheard of for this size vehicle. Hats off to Chrysler for this one!!!"

"Very Good car"

"This is essentially an E class Mercedes with a Hemi. I am getting about 20MPG in my commute which is almost entirely hiway. It handles fairly well and has good power. The brakes seem to require a firm foot, but when pressed hard it will stop. The integrated NAV is nice to have as it integrates into the steering wheel and information center plus adds a 6 disc CD changer. The sound system is more than adequate - but if you like it loud you may want more power. It does require 7 quarts at oil change time. I have been running regular unleaded w/o any issues."

"Best car I have ever had in 37 years of driving."

"Still going strong after 201,000 miles!"

2005 Chrysler 300 Depreciation

Annual Depreciation is an estimation of what your vehicle's value might be over time based on an average of similar vehicles. Estimations are calculated by comparing Kelley Blue Book Private Party Values of vehicles similar to yours over time, as well as forecasts from Manheim Auction data comparing current and projected auction values against current Kelley Blue Book Private Party and Trade-In Values. This is not a guarantee of actual depreciation. Local weather conditions, market factors and driver performance will also impact your vehicle's actual depreciation.
