- 2023 Chrysler 300C review by The Straight Pipes. The Chrysler 300C is putting down 485 horsepower and 475 lb-ft of torque from a 6.4L V8 SRT HEMI. At $72,995 CAD, would you take it over the Dodge Charger, Dodge Charger Scat Pack, Dodge Charger Widebody, Dodge Charger Scat Pack Widebody, Dodge Charger SRT Scat Pack Widebody, or 5 used Chrysler 300 SRT8's?

I cancelled my '23 scatpack widebody order when I went to a dealership with a friend to pick up his hellcat and they had this 300c on the lot for sale. The guy who had ordered it backed out and they were offering MSRP no markup. Everything said in this video has matched my experience perfectly, especially how this vehicle CAN NOT make sharp turns on a damp street at all. But you can't help but fall in love with it. I got it in July and already have 7k miles on it. Driving it is just a pleasure and joy.
Congrats!
Get better tires. I put Michelin pilot sports on my scatpack and it was night and day.
I don't believe you. 😮
Get new tires and you'll be set
Happy for you! Just be careful bc you know folks be stealing these cars with the scat and hellcat motors
I’m working my ass off to get the car of my dreams I don’t care what it takes.. thank you guys for all the great content over the yrs
Just make sure you're debt free and have retirement savings sorted before splurging on a depreciating asset like a car. 😉
Hell yea fam have fun when you get it 💯
i would love to own this car if it was 25k lol
@@DeuceDeuceBravoyep.....I have learned that lesson
While I applaud your work ethic, do know that cars depreciate while real estate appreciates. Buy a house/property ASAP.
This car is the definition of the numbers don’t matter, big V8, nice ride, great cruiser, I love these old boats, they’re not trying to be anything other than a big old cruiser
I would call a car that slips everytime u give it power a good cruiser
Once you become a blue meth kingpin, this is what you upgrade to 😎
Lol I’m literally watching that rn 😏
Wrong. You buy a 2014 srt 300 like the one that sits in my garage
Back in the early 2000s there was/is a guy that owns a martini bar and owned a Chrysler 300 and on it he had a pinstripe that lead into a martini glass. So if not meth then I guess martinis work too.
@ClosedOpenness they don't know the history 💯
I seriously laughed out loud. This is hilarious
100% YES to the M5! Do it for us!
I agree I think it would be a great to watch.
No do the v10 m6 everybody does the m5 be different
I’m sorry, but I was in tears watching that priceless moment of Yuri looking back and forth at his buddy in utter confliction and confusion when he is asking Jacob if he likes the car and him saying that he loves his car as it’s sliding around and he can’t tell if it’s fast or not because of all the slippage
Yuri is so right about the amount of tech in cars. It may sound ridiculous compared to real older cars but when you compare to modern even dailies. Some seat adjustment, heated seat and steering wheel, gauges with most important info and thicc analog speedo and tachometers. Ok some bluetooth is nice too but i wouldnt mind CD player for some rare occasions
My car being a 2011 strikes a nice balance. It has stuff like Bluetooth, aux port and heated seats, but the infotainment screen isn't some overbearing focal point with too much going on like many new cars.
@flurpoid i still feel that uConnent 4 was one of the best system. Has everything you need that you would actually use from time to time, nothing that's unnecessary.
@@flurpoidyep, 100% agreed. My Jaguar XKR is 2014 and it's the same - all the modern amenities (backup camera and forward + back sensors, heated and cooled seats, Bluetooth audio and calls, auto-dimming mirrors inside and out (+heated outside), etc) and none of the bullshit driver nannies that don't work right. The only thing I wish it had is radar cruise control. My earlier XKR had that but apparently it was an option there after and no one ever ordered it 🤦♂️
Love the Chrysler 300,I got my S model with the 5.7 Hemi V8.112,000 miles and it still rides like a dream.
Everyone loves shitting on the Chrysler 300,while in the same breath lamenting how affordable V8 RWD sedans are impossible to find 🤦
Yes to buying a v10 m5, should also do an every generation corvette comparison and see which one you guys love the most
buy it v10 akwaoum like dive viper 2024 vioer hybride
I own one of these in Bright White. Absolutely ridiculous fun car. You did a little bit of comparison to the Charger Scat Pack (which has the same engine/trans), but there are a few additional things that the 300C has that you can't even get on the Charger Scat Pack. 300C has the full Laguna Leather seats, Scat Pack only comes in Nappa Leather/Alcantara as the top option. The 300C also has a full panoramic sunroof, not available on the 300C. And the final thing, equipping a Charger Scat Pack as close as you can to the 300C is a sticker price of $64K, $7K MORE than what the 300C stickers for.
Some dealers who have the cars on the lot are asking a few grand over sticker, but I got mine for right at sticker price as have a bunch of the owners.
i too have a bright white i call it a scat pack in a white tux!
From all of us at Brampton, one last time; thank you guys.
Hell yeah 💪
I had 2008 300C SRT8. Loved that car. Had 425 HP Stock 6.1L
Goodbye to the 300! Heck of a way to go out with some beautiful hemi action :) have always loved that exhaust sound
You guys are crazy brave giving that thing any throttle through cliche corner. Looking at your faces as that thing goes sideways is pure comedy 😂
Jacob's look of "OH YEAH", and Yuri's "just stop,...I don't wanna die". -- 🤣
Cmon guys. I LOVED the PT Cruiser when it came out in 2001. LOL. I still drive a 2016 300s and apart from the engine, there’s not much change to it. Thanks for the review !!!
I have a 2012 Chrysler 300C, but with the 5.7 hemi and AWD. The older ones also have the heated and cooled cupholders, which was the main selling point for me tbh.
I've actually taken mine to autocross and winter (snow) ax events where it actually performed pretty decent. I would love to have this sleeper of a car but I'd have to pay more than twice what my current 300C cost lol.
Great send off though, love to see it!
This car is a lot of things but sleeper is not one of them. You can hear it coming a mile away.
@@irtnyc there are many sleepers that have a loud exhaust. You don't really hear much till a sleeper rips away off the line or passes you. Most people aren't even aware these exist! Sleeper in my book but to each their own.
@@mister.midwest When's the last time Darth Vader ever sneaked up on somebody?
@@irtnyc How about the design, development, construction, and operation of the Death Star? By the time you were aware of its presence it was already too late! Much like the 2023 Chrysler 300C lol
@@irtnycYou have to admit he makes a great point😂 Its a grandpa car with a 392 in it. Not even a special badge. Definitely a sleeper.
im 6'7 and a charger was one of the few cars
I could drive comfortably without a centre console stabbing my leg or driving with my knees....
We're going to wake up one day and feel truly old, the automotive landscape will feel alien, and we will miss this car dearly.
The 300C is still a handsome car
+1 for M5
I so wish they made this with the 2015 facelift. A buddy of mine had a 2007 300 SRT8 and I really wanted the brute-in-a-suit combination. Eventually landed in a Charger Daytona 392, and loved it, but would have also liked the subtly of a 300 with the same power.
There was a gen 2 srt Chrysler 300 that was not the one pictured in this video. It had roughly the same body style as this 300c
If I bought this I would definitely get wider rear wheels it would look so much better and perform better!
This was a fun episoed of TheStraightPipes Love the chat about the boys on the assembly line buying these up !
Feels like Deja Vu as I was just watching Breaking Bad re-runs and went back to the scene with the 300C pulling up in the driveway lol
I drove the last version of this car, for daily and just for good old red light dash the car is very lovely, but when i took it to the B road at middle of the corner with middle to heavy throttle i felt the chassis has met it's limit, i lt almost felt the chassis is folded by the immense power from the engine
Remember this chassis design is 20 years old, the designer wouldn't have imagined have to do with this number of horsepower.
I am still student, I love V8,V10,V12,W12, & W16 Engine Cars.. One Day I will Buy All....
Should've had a CD player. I agree with you
As a European, I immediately think of a Lancia when I see that car.
True. And it hurts..
I would 100 percent pick this over a Scatpack, the Charger looks slightly better but this is still a mean looking sedan, it is rarer, and I like its more "luxurious" take on the platform, I am a sucker for comfy sedans that happen to be quick.
That's the oldest looking new car I've seen in a while.
Oldest looking?? Try the current Toyota 4 Runner. That car released back in 2010.
@@jonlosito2004
It got updated
I bought a 2006 300C SRT8 in late 05 and owned it for a little over 2 years when it was totalled off by a drunk who drove into it while it as parked. I was so pissed when that happen but I'm surprised it's 2023 and it's got a 6.4 instead of the 6.1 and it only has 485 from the 425 it had back then and a 5 spd auto compared to todays 8 spd trans. I would love to buy a OG 300 SRT and drop a C170 crate engine in it and lighten it up as much as possible.
I love these cars. Big American muscle. Nothing beats it. Nothing. Enjoy your baby engines out there
Boys.. I gotta say... the yellow Conti rain jacket, and the white Tuxmat Tee from a couple vids back absolutely f'in SLAP. Bought my first set of Viking Contact 7s to compare to the Blizzaks for the squad.
You’ll love them
This 300c is amazing and i want to buy one used. And yes, buy an M5 V10 but with a manual transmission, the SMG is horrendous.
Smg is problematic but a blast at full pelt. Around town not so much 😂
@@slowspecv69 true, and at the end of the day I prefer an SMG M5 than no M5 at all :P
I have m5 with 0
Problems original owner and 17k miles on it LMK 2nd lowest mileage on record I’m in San Jose California
Oh did I forget to mention Steven dinan tuned it and it is fully dinan badged
100% buy a v10 M5
But don’t cry when the v10 blows 🤣$$
Sorry lads, I'm gonna have to say No to the V10 BMW. I don't like watching people I like suffer needlessly.
YES, absolutely get a V10 M5. We need that content!!!
I love this car. It gives off ‘96 Impala vibes, especially in black.
The 300 and the Charger did compete with the Impala in the 2000s/2010s back then
@@jonlosito2004that’s not the point he’s making. He’s saying how the 1996 has nostalgic cool factors to it when you see one. This 300 brings the same vibes and energy. But you are correct about this competing with the SS impala of the 2000’s era
Living 20 minutes north of Detroit, would never own a Chrysler product. I see them getting stolen on I-94 all the time
I wanted one, but the blackout package turned me off. I will keep my 2018 Platinum with the 5.7L Hemi.
Please buy an M5 V10 for the channel I would love to watch that series
"bf goodrich gforce comp2 a/s plus 245/45/zr20" are the BEST TIRES for narrowbody scatpacks and chystlers with 245s. u can speed in the rain after u properly break them in. I use to race teslas and trucks in them because they thought I couldn't keep up, but id dust them. pretty good for winter too. the only downside is you have to replace them 2x a year if u speed a lot or doo burnouts, but they significantly improve the traction and handling. They also give you better 0-60s. 3.6 once & 3.8 five times. other than that 4.0 - 4.2 every time
You're right Yuri, it needs a CD player. 💿
Fantastic review, always the best., PT Cruiser burn at the end, gold.
That badge on the grill looks like it came from Pep Boys
Had Drivetribe not already done an M5 V10 I'd say go for it.
Never get in a car and say “your going for one last drive”
You're*
lol facts…..
Jakob and Yuri have you ever been pulled over while filming a video?
I'm down with the the throw back car reviews. DO IT!
these have always been in the middle east and are just called Chrysler 300 SRT they're still being built from 2010-2023 everything in between has the 6.4 engine
I own a 2008,300C station wagon (in Europe it's called 300C Touring) with a 3.0 Diesel and a 5 speed transmission.
It's an absolute dream to drive and gets pretty good gas mileage (average of 7.5 liters for 100 km). I can get almost 1000 km out of one tank. 🎉
I really love this car although it has already 280.000 km on the clock it still runs strong doing 170 km/h with the cruise control (but the the gas mileage is a bit worse 😂) on the autobahn.
Great car. I gonna keep mine forever but I wouldn't feel that lonely in the driveway if I'd buy a Hemi powered 300C as it's companion 😂.
Amazing

Yes, you absolutely need to get the V10 M5. You have to, because I have no choice but to live vicariously through you guys I would love to see it. I've always fantasized about getting one, but all the reliability issues scare me because I don't have CZcams and Continental and TuxMat money backing me.
"I wanted it for you." Lines from a true friend! 🤣
Don't care how nice a car is cants stand a turn nob for the transmission.. I do like these drove a 14 y with awd and a v8 was nice and drove a 08 y in the winter here in Detroit with winter tires and thr traction control on and she did so good. All my cars are fwd but I was impressed
Buy an M5 V10....you have too.
15:59 ayo out of pocket yuri lmao
😂😂😂😂😂
I think it’s a crime that Jakub doesn’t own a car with the 2URGSE in it. The ISF is the reason I subscribed 😂
GSF’s too expensive
@@TheStraightPipes sell the fox body
Absolutely positively buy yourselves a V10 M5! I would love to see your take on it!
I ordered two the night of the reveal. Once I knew my preferred dealer wasn’t going to try to mark up the car I cancelled the other one. Received it in June. The tires definitely suck and 275/40 Michelins or Contis are on the short list. Definitely not a boring car.
Because I am a dumbass, were you able to mount them on the stock wheels since they are 20x9?
@@1983jblack I haven’t done it yet. A few people in a FB group for the 23 C have done it with no issues. I just haven’t had the opportunity to get them replaced yet.
Good to know. That will be in the future for me as well
If nissan/infiniti Canada can get you their used fleet try out a comparison between the last gen infiniti G vs the infiniti Q
Ome of my all time favorite cars!! Sad its going away, hope to acquire one in the next few years while possible.
You guys are complete polar opposites of Doug DeMuro in terms of appreciating old school tech and i love it !! 😂😂
Ohh and speaking of old school, you should review a 2023 or a 2024 Toyota 4 Runner TRD Pro cuz it got some more updates, and the 4 Runner is getting a major redesign since the 5th gen 4 Runner has been on the market since the last 15 years now, and they're replacing that old 4.0L V6 after over 20 years now.
And mann.. that M5 V10 sounds like a great idea!! But i also think you should consider a Dodge Viper cuz that also has a V10 and you would do a comparison with your C6 Corvette if you still have that Corvette.
Heck yes Jakub, you should buy the M5 V10
I have a 2012 300 srt8. The complaints are short. I wish it were a few hundred pounds lighter, and expect the carbon fiber trim to pop off and warp in six or seven years. That's it for complaints. This car is all about the engine and stance.
Get a good set of summer performance tires and be prepared to store it for winter.
Yes, this car is the automotive equivalent of Kiss still being on tour. Who cares. They both put on one hell of a show.
I waiting on my 300c how much does pads, and rotors run you!?!
I rent this car with a V6. Going to ski up in the hills. Rear wheel drive only. So much pleasure and difficult also. One time i was obliged to u-turn hard because the hill wqs too 5%-7% . If i lost grip i was down.
The only thing faster than its 0-60 time is its rate of depreciation.
Who was the designer that ripped of this, the Charger, the Challenger, the Magnum, the Journey, the Nitro, the Grand Cherokee, and the Durango? Designs so good they all still look good 20 years on.
What? What? Dodge has the worst design language of all brands. The Journey? The nitro? The Magnum? Every one looks like doodoo after 3 years. The only 4 that age well are the charger, challenger, the grand Cherokee and Durango. Look at Dodges history. The intrepid aged horribly, the avenger aged horribly, the journey aged horribly before it was even released. The weird lines and squared edges make them look like the cheapest car on the road. Most Dodge products look like crap accept for their top models. Their trucks look sick af though.
My dudes giving a shout out to Houston ,TX with them swangas🤙
Hell yeah
Hate to tell you guys, but my 2011 SXT Charger had heated and cooled cup holders and heated backseats. Buttons looked the exact same too LOL
I’ve always liked the 300 but they need more body styles like a wide body and grill/ bumper changes add a spoiler too
That front badge is really heinous
Naw
I'm shocked that it doesn't have a CD player! I've held on to my CDs; purchased at portable player for my current car. I miss my VW Jetta TDI...☹
You should totally buy the m5 like so they buy it
My old dealer had a stage 2 chrystler scatpack with AK pops I knew him since he was a squeaker on black ops
It just makes me remember the Crossfire.
I wanted one after Heisenburg drove one.
You guys have completely ignored the 12-14 srt8 !!! Best version of all !!
Crazy how its really the same platform as a E55 😂
No bigger flex than pulling up to a Mopar meet in a 392 Chrysler 300
Even better with a demon swapped one😅
Lol
I'll flex harder in zr1 corvette lol
@@mrstinky2421Not at those meets.
To say RIP Luxury V8 when the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing exist is crazy.
Knowing Yuri wanted a PT Cruiser Convertible back in the day makes me feel like I've met my twin
I was running numbers on one yesterday... Yeah I got that lucky
The fact that he knows what swangas are has me rolling 🤣. And 2000s cars that you should review. I’d like to see you guys do a 2008-2011 Lexus GS460. It’s a really rare car and not a lot of people even know they exist.
Oh I know they exist. I had a GS430 dumped on Wald wheels
biy it

Hey guys love the channel since day one!!! However you are using the term “donk” incorrectly. It’s ONLY a few 70’s model Chevy Caprices and Impala’s

Not sure I ever saw Yuri look so terrified before.
@TheStraightPipes
Would love if you guys could get your hands on a 2nd Gen Chrysler 200 V6 and do a review!
I just love to look at it, a real American car!
(Im)patiently waiting for the M5 V10 video *jeopardy theme*
Interesting, is Yuri stating that 2023 is probably a good time to buy a car before they become too automated with OTA updates and stuff or because of the EV transition? I know were close to the end of being able to purchase cool (PUN) ICE cars which would be one of the reasons persuading me to potentially buy a new ICE car now.
