It is a great looking car. I was blown away with its looks.
Least favorite feature:
Unreliable engine and ratling noises
Advice to buyer:
Consider buying more reliable cars - don't buy a 300
Detailed review:
Three years with this 3.5L engine car. First year was great - no problems. Second year - the A/C temp and fan lights in the dash went; dealer says that they can replace the circuit board but the replacement part will have no lights (Huh? So why would they replace it???). Third year - disaster: Right front tire rod loosened, Engine Indicator light went on - rough idling and acceleration. This required valve work - needed repaire twice. Just had another recent flash of the Engine light. Now, the suspension and ratling noise is getting louder. I have lost confidence in this car's reliability.
