    Chrysler 300C

    Chrysler’s 300C was a big rear-drive sedan to rival the once-popular Falcon and Commodore served with either a V6 or V8 engine. The 300C moniker refers to the first-generation model, while for the second generation, the ‘C’ refers to the V6 variants only. The American sedan had slow but steady sustain in Australia thanks to the second-generation SRT V8s being used as highway patrol vehicles.

    The line-up currently starts at $12,760 for the 300C CRD and ranges through to $29,700 for the range-topping 300C SRT8.
