Chrysler 300C - SRT

[SELfor50]

Had a ride in one today.

Chipped, Dyno tuned properly, custom cold air setup...

As a passenger, f*kn CRAZY!!!

Got in the driver's seat.

When I say I took it for a 'blast. It literally was a f*kn blast!!!!!
VERY similar to the 6.9 in the sense that you don't realise your speed until you look at the display, and it just keeps on keeping on. Not gonna say what the reading was when i looked down...

Never driven something that has such a mountain of torque.
And pickup, I was speechless.

The dash has a 0-100Km/h timer built in. I only managed a bit over 5 secs.
It also holds 'records' in memory. My mate's record is 4.42secs 0-100.


I don't know what the standard 300C's are like, but I know the SRT is absolute mountains of car for 60-70K.

I strongly recommend to test drive one.


Anyone else experienced the pleasure of these car's?

Bought an SRT and chipped it and modified it.

Yes, you can't miss them, can you - I have always liked the look of them. I still recall the time and place I saw one for the first time - it was in a showroom in Taipei and I was blown away.

The SRT, and so many new luxury cars nowadays, have moved the acceleration stakes to another level. Whilst 0-100 in 7.5 seconds may have been the yard stick thirty years ago, nowadays you are looking at sub six seconds times. Regards Styria

The acceleration isn't even necessarily the crazy part but also how quick they get to 250+km/h - EFFORTLESSLY! ....not that we took her that fast on an open road...that wouldn't be legal.
And for such a big car, oh so stable.
