Just not my style but can't argue with 425hp for $39k. I does have road presents but its still ugly to me. Looks like a they hired the hyundai designers copy a bentley.

I was at the car wash the other day and asked to see the interior of one of these...... I wasn't impressed. I agree you can't argue with the horsepower but just like the CTS...... hardly anyone gets the V and hardly anyone pays for the extra horses.... The guy at the car wash had the intro model.

It is kinda true. The rear is pretty ugly, the front is okay. I don't know about this version, but the 340-hp version has received numerous of complaints about its handling from magazine editors. But then again, it's not meant to be a sports car, I guess. Regardless, there are sedans that handle very well, e.g. BMW 545, Acura RL, etc.

The side profile is the best view of the 300C, but ya, the rear end is about as bland as it gets...nothing original. The interiors in these aren't as great as some people make them out to be either. A lot of the cubby panels still jump open, and to me, the whole interior feels like a mix of 2 styles that don't quite merge.

There was an article on this car, the Pontiac GTO, & Cadillac CTS-V in this months Motor Trend. Of these I would get the GTO first (even though it was the slowest, and the longest in braking but about $10K less than the SRT-8, and $15K+ on the CTS-V.

It needs it, every 300 with a hemi on the road has tried to take me on the road in my Sti. I think that thing acts as testosterone for middle age men. Ill be driving along and one will pull up next to me at speed and just try to take off... me... totally not expecting it... have to adjust, shift down and spank the crap out of them. Hell.. half of them had new plates on to. Hated to make them hate their own car but I can resist.
