Summary Bold exterior styling of the 300 has contributed to its success.
The current 300 SRT8s engine might share the pushrods of the original Chrysler 300 models, but the big touch screen, adaptive cruise control, and active suspension certainly werent available in 1965.Like an old muscle car, the 2012 Chrysler 300 SRT8 starts up with a roar from its 6.4-liter Hemi V-8, then settles down to a low rumble that makes the car shiver as if alive.At the same time, an 8.4-inch touch-screen makes useful features such as navigation and a Bluetooth phone system easily available to the driver.Largely successful mix of classic power and new electronics could also be found in the car.Of course, the bold exterior styling of the 300 has contributed to its success. Not many cars have a horizontal roofline these days.
