The Chrysler 300 stands out with bold styling harkening back to its glory days in the '50s. It is the first big rear-wheel drive sedan to come out of Chrysler in many years and its ride is smooth, solid, and comfortable.
There are three engines available: a 2.7-liter V6, a 3.5-liter V6, and the 5.7-liter V8 Hemi. The base Chrysler 300 comes with a 2.7-liter double-overhead-cam V6 engine making 190 horsepower and 190 feet-pounds of torque. It's mated to a four-speed automatic transmission. The other trims include: The 300 Touring uses a 3.5-liter single-overhead-cam V6 making 250 horsepower mated to a four-speed gearbox; the 300 Limited with more luxury amenities; the 300C brings the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 mated to a five-speed automatic with AutoStick; and the SRT8 is powered by a 425 hp 6.1-liter V-8 engine.
For 2006, the Chrysler 300 changes are minimal.
Purchasing an older vehicle, such as the 2006 Chrysler 300, makes good financial sense. You're able to avoid the steep depreciation rates that occur with brand new vehicles. This essentially gives you the advantage of getting a 2006 Chrysler 300 for less money than when it was new. If the 2006 Chrysler 300 was properly maintained, you also have a good chance of steering clear of problems that would have developed when the car was new.
The amount you pay for an older car depends on various factors. One important element is where you buy the vehicle. You're likely to get a better deal if you buy it from a private party, as opposed to a dealer. On the other hand, a reputable dealer will normally have some kind of limited warranty, so you can drive away knowing that if the car breaks down right away, you'll be covered. Another factor that may affect price on a 2006 Chrysler 300 is whether it's "certified" by the manufacturer. A certified vehicle will cost more because warranty service is provided that normally doesn't come with a used car.
Another dynamic that will play into the purchase price is the resale value. A used vehicle with a high resale value will obviously cost you more. It is expected that the 2006 Chrysler 300 will have a good resale value. This assumes that the 2006 Chrysler 300 is in good condition and has a reasonable number of miles.
