This full-size sedan, built on the LX platform shared with the Dodge Charger and Magnum, was a bold statement of power and elegance, drawing inspiration from the classic 1955 Chrysler 300. The 300C’s design was characterized by its long, sweeping lines, a prominent grille with a large chrome crosshair, and muscular proportions. Inside, the 300C offered a luxurious and spacious cabin with high-quality materials, comfortable seating, and a driver-focused cockpit. The 300C was available with a choice of powerful engines, including a 275-horsepower 3.5L V6 and a 340-horsepower 5.7L Hemi V8, paired with either a five-speed automatic or a four-speed automatic transmission, respectively.
