Chrysler 300 vs. Ford Five Hundred

[kko]

Have You sat in a new 300?

I chose the 300 because it looks than the focus, I mean ford 500, and the fact that it has the hemi; however, the 300's hugeeeee amount of weight kinda makes up for it having a hemi.

I like the 300. upcoming SRT will have 425hp and a starting price of 40 grand. Nothing else (luxury car wise) even comes close.

300. front fascia is ugly, the rest is nice. i especially love the high beltline/low roof look. reminds me slightly of the '49 mercury/ford/lincolns and of course the hudson hornets

These cars arent even comparable....Ones smaller than a Falcon, the others bigger...

I'd probably choose the 300 though for the RWD and V8

ok reality check guys, the chrysler starts with a boring v-6 and lists at a base of around 30k, with that equipment, a five hundred lists at 23k, add a hemi to the chrysler, or go SRT and it only gets worse. For basic transport, i'd take the ford.

yeah it's been bothering me too...it's apples-and-oranges

The 300 looks better even with the bargain-Bentley fascia, as the Ford has a Police cruiser/Taxi profile. The problem with the Ford is there are no engine choices, it's Ford's doitall 3.0 Duratec V6 making around 200Hp. The Chrysler entices with 3, including a large V8 and RWD. That combination with seal the deal for most enthusiasts. I give the nod to the Hemi 300 but wouldn't take either car, too many other desirable cars.

stopped by the Chrysler showroom & saw the 300C for the first time. all the big boxiness & ugliness that i saw in the pictures were gone & instead it looked large ,sleek & elegant car. the interior is very roomy & the controls setting felt like a german car. even the price is reasonabl. the 500 looks like a longer mondeo to me.
