Welcome to another Episode of Ross Reviews AU on this weeks Video
We take out this 2015 Chrysler 300 SRT.. This Beauty has the glorious NA 6.4L Hemi V8 and let me tell you it's a powerhouse engine pushing 465hp from factory!
This car reminds me so much about what was great of our recently dead australian car industry.. well at least on paper.. So does the 300SRT deserve its place here in Aus???
lets find out :)

I made a mistake this car was sold in the US... very very confusing let me tell you haha this is the very last 300SRT the US ever got.. the 8spd one is the Aus & middle east only one.. i will find one soon and review it :)
Reach out to some Aussie chrysler Facebook groups man, someone nearby will let you drive theirs.
@@cmaeornthered will try :) be great to feature the aussie one
Is it better than a hsv vz r8?
@@ezeegtxl my opinion... NO WAY! VZR8 is a dream car of mine..
Yea.. the 2015+ update with the 8sp. Is such an improvement. Also they made the car sound a lot better/louder. Also get a full spec SRT that comes with heaps more features and the 3 stage suspension.
I have a 2018 SRT. It has been the best driving experience of my life. I totally love it. The look, the sound, the ride, beautiful.
Right on! im very keen to experience the 8 speed SRT i think would improve the car a lot! and yes as a total package this car is amazing! (especially for the price!)
Read a lot of comments like this and reviews from owners also so I bought a 2016 HYPERBLACK and they are right I love them also 👍
My brother has one of these, all white & straight pipe.
It goes hard & sounds sick man!
ohhhhhh hell yeh m8.. would love to hear that
I love the 300c, nothing beats the sound of a hemi
Love em eh
Ive had both generations of 300 SRT, XR8 Falcon and VF GTS. The Chrysler 300 SRT is massively underrated.
i agree after driving them all.. i dont think its still the one id choose, but again it's a great car that does everything very nicely
I've always liked them, pretty gangsta.
very mafia
5.6 is a great street time, don't worry about what the other times say with a perfect track this is what counts. Ive had the the 8speed version of this and its just a great car. Srt handles beautifully fo both comfort and sports driving. And everyone loves the hemi.
its so true eh.. you just gotta love these modern "old school Muscle cars". Big comfy with a huge engine! haha
This reminds me of Yankee version of the VT vs VZ commodore's both the same but different with the VZ being the best of that chassis design. Good review like always fella gotta love that hemi V8 sound!!! Bloody cheers to car giant for letting ya review their cars im sure you have helped sell them some cars too. My mate is wanting to sell his stroked 427 manaro, hint hint, time to come to NSW
you gotta love a Hemi V8 eh haha yeh they have been a blessing for the channel letting me take out these cars no questions asked lol m8 i wish i was able to travel!!! i should have already been to QLD n back by now
I like car Australia car love Chrysler 300 srt sedan big fan of Ford and Chrysler and dodge very nice pretty car
Like the channel mate. Super honest but still exciting to watch,
I live in nsw but you’re more the welcome to review my 09 ss ve black Manuel Ute with a few little extras 😉
thanks for being a fan! gald your enjoying it.. as soon as the borders open im keen to head east.. appreciate the offer hope i can review it one day
Awesome review man! keep going :D
Thanks, will do!
I’ve got a 2012 srt8 6.4lt. Same colour. Believe me, she goes! Ross said he got 5.5 for speed. I can get 4.6! And that’s before I changed the exhaust to a 3” Mantra system. Emphasise the note & a touch more torque :)
Who buys these cars you ask? A bus driver with an adrenaline addition :)
And at the end of the day, she’s just my shopping car :)
Thanks for the info! haha love your enthusiasm mate... they are good cars! i had a lot of fun reviewing it.. hoping to take out a ZF one soon
Nice one Ross. Brembo brakes too. Those wheels fill the guards very well. If I was ever going to move on my XR8 I would consider a 300. I don't want or need an SUV or dual cab. A V8 sedan does me fine.
Totally agree if ya want a new V8 sedan thats similar to the aussie stuff this is really all ya got now.. n to be truthful its a LOT of car.. especially for the money. worth a test drive if your interested
What a BEAST! 🔥🚀
Got one love it very capable car, flat tracked it dragged and also hillclimbed all done in comfort and safe stable with power on tap
Bloody love these beasts! I didn’t know they had so much power and sound so good though. I just loved their mafia look
they are so mafia eh! and they go HARD!
Workmate has one its so gorgeous. Love these in the pearl white
they are very cool and quick! cars..
Good alternative to Ford or Holden V8 sedan. Later series 2 with 8 speed with active shocks, autonomous braking is better choice.
on the hunt for a 8 spd! very good alternative now since all the competition is gone
WOOHOO Thanks Ross! Strange this SE hasn't got all the options like radar. my SRT8 is fully loaded and in rather rare Deep Cherry... I also have a 5.0w LTD so it's big sedans ftw.
good on ya! nice purchase id say.. i really like the 300SRT! very very keen to test out a 8spd one
Another awesome review Ross, on the 5 speed vs the 8 what about reliability, have you heard if one is better than other in that regard?
not too sure on long term reliability as still is a chrysler product lol but the 8spd is def the better option.. faster & more fuel efficient
Still better than anything ford or holden even made. Reason why they shut down while mopars are going strong
i wouldnt go that far.. its a great car tho
The model shown does have 'launch control'. You need the dealer to activate it then from memory you need to press the traction control button a couple of times. Only issue with the launch control for nearly 2 seconds all it gives you is wheel spin like some P plater taking off. Mine had a leather dash which bowed twice. Got one replaced under warranty, the other was going to cost me $11,000 to have repaired. The leather dash was $9,000 alone. Great review.
damn why did they make it so complicated haha.. as you can see this car had no trouble spinning the rear up on a launch lol.. good fun this car was.. and that steering! wow impressive..
glad you enjoyed the review
If you get it from a wrecker it will be a few hundred bucks most likely
Would love to drive the 8 speed zf box . Would improve the 0-100 test .
Thanks for your video. They are always cool 😎
Thanks man! Glad you are enjoying them.. yes on the hunt for a 8spd!
Do these have cylinder de-activation, I read that this is not a good thing and can make the engine go BOOM!
The 2020 SRT goes for 85k, i couldn't justify it when i bought my VF2 SSV Motorsport for 62k. I like the 300 SRT, I've always wanted one but the price was a huge let down imo for what you get.
yeh fair call i have yet to review a 2020 model but i believe they start at like 77K but options would bump it up to 85+ in no time
It's really the ultimate loud and powerful sedan
i think your right at least for something that can still come "new" so ya SRT is winning
Keen! these cars look very mafia 😎
agreed!
These cars look very Highway Patrol and Undercover
One of the mums at my daughters kindy has a black SRT Jeep with red badges , it’s hot !
So is the car
haha classic m8.. im keen on trying one of them SRT Jeeps
i love em, i think i wouldnt get that exact model, especially after seeing this. but also i think maybe they arent so much marketed towards filling a certain criteria within the market, as much as they are made for those of us who love them regardless. the style, the power, the size, the luxury compared to other chrysler products that are its competitors like charger/ challenger. yeah i think you either just love em or you dont. great vid man, thank you
id def go a 8 speed.. but still its a great car and i loved reviewing it.. maybe if you got a really great deal on one id consider it
@@RossReviewsau yeah I want a hyperblack, it's perfect version for me. Plus, like the satin vapor limited editions likely become classics if you're patient
@@REGULATORnpt agreed
Hey Johnny mate,another nice review she gets going for a big tank,I'd have one for free but wouldn't buy one I love my Fg too much lol,you all take care man.
it does go alright eh.. n yes this car is 100% a tank lol
Big bad and beautiful. Great review!
Yes! Thank you!
Would love to see you do a review of e49 charger its still incredibly fast for 0-100 the valiants were the best imo.
Would love to see one
My grandfather drives one...I think he is a gangsta!! 🤣🤣
😎👨🦳😎
Buy one now in Australia they stopped production in 2021' And its technical a Canadian car 😁😉
true yes i heard they are stopping :(
@@RossReviewsau Oh ffs, now no more V8 sedans anymore in Aus. fml
@@NoOne56488 there are very few now :(
A few years ago they virtually disappeared from the roads now im seeing a few fully restored ones with pimped out rims around, could they become a collectors item?
i reckon they will be collector cars since so many have been flogged out n ruined.. the good ones are bloody great cars n should be looked after :)
I own a 2016 300C we cannot buy the SRT8 here in America since 2014. I also own a 2007 SRT8 Charger.
They are both massive cars, but really fun rides.
You mention it shifts sloppy and won't accelerate how you like, these cars have adaptive drive learning, if you reset the system, or teach the car aggressive driving it will respond better.
Google the fuse pull for the system reset for adaptive systems on the car.
thanks i did not know that.. ps i love the chargers
8spd 300 SRT8 is an Australian only thing, best we get is a 300S with a 5.7
@@davehicks6836 yes i believe only australia and the middle east get them.. so very keen to brag in one haha.. jk
M888, I see some of them around. Always try to race them in my ss, none want some of the cake
haha! hey dont worry if ya see the F6 out on the road soon its on😈
@@RossReviewsau be careful you might scare the ss off saying that Ross 💋
You didnt mention the awesome panoramic sunroof
this is true & a feature of the Satin Vapour Edition.. you can tell i struggled a bit on this review haha my apologies
I’d get one of these but I couldn’t help myself I’d stroke the engine with a supercharger & convert it to a manual transmission!!
oh HELL YES.. that would be epic
Best modern sedan made in last 20 years
Me get one finish my finance for car 4 years. 2019 Chrysler 300 srt sedan v8 auto
Me get car. Me drive it. Me happy 🙂 🦍
So the number one goal is to be poor and have car finance your whole life ... excuse me while I laugh hysterically 🤣😂 at foolish choices that people make to impress people they hate on credit !
im not one for going any bigger than 20in on sedans but these 300s need a 22 with low profiles, This one looks a little odd with the large tyre sidewall on the 20inch rim and the large space under the guards, or maybe just adjusting the coil overs can get this car sitting a little better
yeh maybe just adjust the ride hight down a bit.. the ride would be rough on 22 i would imagine lol
you need to drive a facelift model with updated 8 speed
100% I’m very keen to find one
How does this compare to the 6.2 Holden/Hsv?
HSV is better.. but I will say this is one hell of a good car.. if this was the 8spd we would have real competition!
Firstly Jon, what you doin' uploading on a Monday arvo? Now what do I do come Saturday morning?
As for the car, I have always had a soft spot for these gangster specials. If they were good enough for Niko Bellic ( GTA V ), they'd be good enough for me.
im trying to upload monday arvos now as i seem to get more viewers🤷♂️ plus it gives me all weekend to try n finish the videos so they are ready haha
ya very mafia these cars😎
@@RossReviewsau .... From your perspective, I can appreciate the move to Monday arvo.
I always imagine the 300's doing a drive-by with a miniature Gatling gun hanging out of a back window.
Gta iv
That running gear, in the better looking Charger body would have been even better.
In John Wick black, too thanks 😎
Yeh I love the charger & challenger😈 wish we got them here
always loved them due to the mafia style they bring
very mafia eh..
well, if you know how to launch...my sister has the old satin vaour and ive repeatable 4.5secs, and in my 2017 8spd core version, its actually slightly slower at 4.6ses......but soooo hard to launch
is there launch control? lol
@@RossReviewsau Yip, one button and away you go....gotta love FCA sometimes....you can also preset the RPM for launch...the gearing is just a bit shorter in the 8spd so its a bit more snappy off the line and harder to launch
When is the review coming out for the Vy ?
next week :) just finishing off the edit
05 was the best year for these babys.
i reviewed a original SRT was still a blast
Would you be keen to review my manual 08 fg xr6t ute at some point? I'm located in Perth
yes! I think you messaged me already..
@@RossReviewsau i did just wanted to make sure to get in contact
Was this recorded in Brigadoon/Gidgegannup?
canning damn
@@RossReviewsau ah ok.
Can you guys get hellcats in Australia?!
We can get Trackhawks but that’s it 😓
To launch the 300 SRT, you need to press the traction button twice and then it’s activated
Thanks
Preferred their look before when the front was more square.
i like the look of this one i think more tho i will agree the front end looked better on the old car.. to soft this one
Is that gtf video still coming?
yup.. but ive been very busy with reviews lol so still have another 2 videos coming out before it.. next up is the VY Senator Signature sires
newer ones sound SIIIIIICKKKK....honestly nothing better stock
gotta love a V8 for that eh
just have to point one thing out the torque number seems very low for 465hp
ya.. its still 465lb ft but generally torque is larger than the cars hp
They should make a hellcat version of this
oh they really really should!
Just a whipple for 15k and you'll fry tyres in every gear....
@@shackleton274 not on a 6.4 you’ll blow it up with only 8lb of boost
The newer ones are so much better....i had a 2014 and now i have a 2017...which ive had for 4 years...
the 8 speed ones are better still have yet to review one of them tho yet..
@@RossReviewsau haha, well i would offer however i am in NSW...and mines done over 100km over the last 4years....so probably not the best example...man i love it though...no idea what to get to replace it
470Hp 470Torque
Weird the Aussie stats say 465🤷♂️ but ya
They were 465hp in this shape.. the 8sp/facelift in 2015 moved up to the 470hp.
The problem with the 300 in aus is that everyone likes them, but nobody wants to buy them.. their depreciation is high, which makes for a good used buy I guess..
yeh i found my self saying a similar thing.. the car was great but i don't think i would buy it lol... i found it hard to imagine the buyer
It’s too bad we can’t get them here in North America!
this particular one you did get actually! this was the very last one North America got.. from what i'm told tho they are incredibly rare over there tho
Australia has the newer SRT with the 8spd :) hope to review one very soon
@@RossReviewsau I was waiting for the 8 spd! I was in the process of buying a 2013 300 SRT, when it sold right out from under me! Then I decided to wait for that 8 spd, and they canceled it here! Loved the look with the black chrome package
Try launch control much better 😉
didnt think it had launch control
Well when I get one I’m not getting a silent one bruh wtf is this silent srt for ? 💀
Opens that exhaust up!!!
For the money it could make a good platform for some mods. Probably keep my Tesla though.
for the money its hard to fault from a performance aspect.. still yet to review a tesla tho i will say i would miss the sound :(
@@RossReviewsau I thought that as well but the acceleration more than makes up for it. It is brutal.
I would own one if my wife would let me . Iam on the look out for the Jeep Cherokee srt 6.1 the old model. Could get away with that . 😬
Don’t bro they pop motors like a whore pops cock. Shitboxes. If ur in aus and u want a v8 go with an xr8 with a blown 5.0L
im keen to get into a Jeep SRT next :) cargiant always has a few so will have to take one out soon.. maybe even a track hawk
All that to keep up with any Barra powered car ))
As if America didn’t get these? For real?
Yup America stopped in 2015 with the SRT and this is that car they missed out on 😅 even tho they make it 🤣🤷♂️
I live in Detroit Michigan and we don’t get those and we are all mad about it bc they sold great here and Chrysler in the US for whatever reason only continued with the dodge version. We’re still mad
@@richardmahoney9415 I’m guessing because it’ll interfere with the 4 door Dodge Charger sales.
We don’t get any factory rhd chargers, never seen a charger in real life tbh.
@@richardmahoney9415 or a CTS-V aswell
Put the hellcat blower on it... get it into Hellcat status maybe worth it.. Closest we will get to a Hellcat in this country. This country's a Joke... choices Are buy a mustang mustang or a mustang....
Bloody wish we got hellcats here here too fella. Id rather a old commodore then a new mustang anyday hell id rather a barra then a mustang. Its sad to see our car culture come to an end but its going to be like a bogan version of the delorean in the years to come and im looking forward to that!!
you guys can import hellcats though right? these SRTs are american cars built and canada but we americans can't even import them back into its own country lol
@@fuegococoa we can but we are talking Ferrari money with conversion imports,tax... a ZL1 here costs 130-140 grand
its crazy that we dont have more of the american muscle cars now.. as they are getting some really good ones at the moment.. HSV n FPV should come back n even rebrand some of them🤷♂️. funny enough HSV is actually working with VW now n doing up a Amarok....
5 speed auto in a 2015 car... That's just a massive let down to be honest.
Yeh agreed.. a few months after this came out the introduced the 8 speed
From 2012 late or 2013 8speed was option , up to middle of 2014.
I have a late '15 with the 8 speed.
have you ever thought about doing a 'Ross Reviews - Wives Edition' channel?
Take a different wife for a test drive every week and give your opinion ......
🤣 oh man one wife is enough for me!
GF edition maybe 🤫🤣
Talking about an interior in a performance type vehicle is strictly filler content
you would be surprised how many people care more about the looks over the actual performance
The kind of person this car is made for are drug dealers lol
haha i think your right
Cool car if i was mexican and haul cocaine for a living 🤙
Haha 100%😂
Seems like a tryhard Euro luxury car with probably even worse reliability (if thats even possible). I would take a G6e Turbo or a Calais v8 over this all day even if this does have a few more fancy interior gadgets.
i get your point for sure.. i was confused about the car while driving it haha not that its bad but im like whos the main buyer here lol
It's a cruiser, plain and simple.
Doesn't come close to a xr6t.... sorry👎
Fair enough 😅 not much does tho to be fair 🇦🇺🤩
@@RossReviewsau that we both know👍👍🇦🇺
Have you driven one? The Ford needs mods to beat one. Then again I've seen one of these with twin helions, so mods can make any car faster at the end of the day.
Rubbish
