Choosing Your Chrysler 300C
The 300C offers the same engine choices as the regular 300. That means you can go with the standard 292-horsepower 3.6-liter V6, or upgrade to a 5.7-liter V8 producing 363 horsepower. Both engines use an eight-speed automatic transmission with a rotary gear selector. The 300C comes standard with rear-wheel drive, while all-wheel drive is a $2,500 option on V6 models.
You have a choice of the standard 300C or the even more luxurious Platinum version:
The most compelling reason for upgrading to the Platinum ($4,135 extra) is the extended leather interior, which will remind you of cars costing twice as much. If that's not particularly important to you, we recommend sticking with the standard C and putting some of that money toward the SafetyTec Group.
