2008 Chrysler 300 SRT-8

Our company just bought this car in Chrysler Makati, Philippines. It is a luxury car so we are expecting very good service however just three (3) weeks after getting the car and unfortunately we had to passed by some unfortunate roads and minor flood, water just go inside the car! It was very scary.... and very unexpected. Everybody was thinking that there's hole under the car. We just used the car for 3 weeks and yet when we when we had it serviced, they charged us a whole lot of money! What kind of service is that and are they not liable for the repair of the unit for free?!!!!I was very angry so we tried to communicate to them the problem and yet they cannot give us exact answer to my inquiries.. everybody was pushing me to another department prolonging my agony! The unit is not designed properly even to overcome minor floods and the service is horrible.... its not advisable.!!!!...read morehide

Pros

Speed handling looks and luxury

Cons

NONE really but the 13mpg when i step on it

This is my frist American Car in 19 years i have owned bmw's and Acuras and this car is great awsome comfort and options and the power is Great u can take almost any car from a roll or a stop. Zero problems in 14k miles the only downside is the MPG but if you are worried about that then u should not be looking at a 6.1L 426hp car...read morehide

Pros

Great acceleration, responsive steering, great ride comfort, excellent Kicker 13-speaker sound

Cons

MPG (if used as an every-day car)

I am in the U.S. Army, currently living in Germany. Not only do people stare in awe (Germans, since they only offer the V-6 to the locals here) but on the Autobahn my 2008 SRT is untouchable. I've driven as fast as 150 MPH and never felt as though I wasn't in total control of the vehicle. The acceleration is frightening at first, but you soon come to realize, and understand, how awesome this car is. The Kicker 13-speaker, driver surround sound system is far better than I initially thought it would be. The factory 20-inch tires/wheels own the road, and handle extremely well in the unpredictable climate changes here in Europe. The 300-series family may all appear to be similar but, when you hear the growl from the SRT exhaust, there is no mistake that the 'big dog' of the litter is running the yard! My only regret will be returning to the U.S. and missing out on the speed, power, and grace of this vehicle commanding the Autobahn....read morehide

Pros

BEAUTIFUL RACE CAR

Cons

A LITTLE TOO LOW

I'm in LOVE with my Chrysler 2007 SRT-8!!! I had a 2006 Touring and traded it in for my SRT-8. My car is black and the inside is just beautiful, comfortable, and the navigaton system really comes in handy. The car has a 6.1 hemi engine and is pretty fast, although, I had an incident where I parked a little too close to a cement barrier and already scratched the bottom of it... cant tell at all, but I know its there... This is the best car ever, its really just a bit too low, other than that, I LOVE IT!!!...read morehide

Pros

Looks, interior, speed, a real attention grabber.

Cons

Too good looking for it's own good.

I love this car! I bought mine in 2006 and it has not a single scratch or dent on it. This obviously speaks for the high quality paint work and body material composition. Push the peddle and OMG!!! ZOOM!! "Color me gone!" I have left so many aggressive drivers disappearing in my rearview mirror just inhaling the fumes of my exhaust. It's luxuriousness, comfort, appearance, handling, performance, and price make this car King of the roads and highways over any other so called luxury car or muscle car. This baby is hard to divorce!!...read morehide

Pros

everything you could ask for in a luxury vehicle. plus blinding speed

Cons

have owned vehicle for one year and so far there is nothing to complain about

best vehicle I have ever owned. If there was one thing I had to pick on the gps/ nav. system takes too long to initially set up, but once set is very accurate and precise

Pros

Lots of power, Has a look of class, Turns heads

Cons

Breaks squeal

I have put about 15,000 miles on my 2006 SRT8 and everyone of them I have enjoyed. The car combines power/speed in a very classy package.
It is a muscle car no doubt but he looks like a upscale sedan. I refer to it as a sleeper because it does not look like a sports car but with 426 horsepower under the hood there is little doubt it can move.
The SRT8 package puts an edge on it that the other 300's don't have. You see a lot of 300's out there but very few SRT8's and people do check it out all the time. They can't quite tell whats different about it but it definitely stands out from its cousins.
The only downside besides racing from gas station to gas station which is to be expected is there is persistent squeal coming from the big Disk- breaks with the metallic pads. You are still grateful to have them because at 2 tons it is a lot of car to stop. If you "bed in" the breaks the noise does go away for awhile. It has just enough bells and whistles and more then enough power to satisfy me.
When you have to get somewhere in a hurry with class the 300c SRT8 is the way to do it....read morehide
