Re: [Chrysler300] 300M

["Jim Maiani" <jmaiani@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bob..What I can tell you is about my 99 300M.  It was a very nice car, my nicest up to that point.  It did everything well (like my 06 Charger).  It was fast (for a 3.5 v-6), comfortable, handled very nice and rode nice.  What I know of the special is it handled even better, had dual exhaust, some ground effects, but for the most part was the same as a normal M.  Overall, not a bad car.  Mine was a lease, and I had zero problems with it for 3 years.  I never had to take it back to the dealer for anything, just like my Charger.  At the end of my lease, I was coming home one night, 0 degrees outside, 60 mph, and hit a deer.  Because of the shape of that M, the front end clipped it legs, forcing the body to hit the hood and bounce over the whole car.  The front end was banged up bad, and the hood was smashed, but it still got me 30 miles home from that point.  No heat, but I got home.  Hope this helps.

I am going to look at a 2004 300M Special later today. Any comments from
those of you that may own or have owned one of these cars? Does the 300M
Special handle differently than the standard 300M? Is it a larger engine in
terms of output? Is the ride stiffer than the standard car? Any problem
areas I should know about?

Thanks!
