Chrysler's new 300 SRT8® is a powerful performer that challenges the likes of BMW and assorted other instruments of awe, Scripps Howard News reported.
Blessed with a 470-horsepower, HEMI® V-8 engine, the Chrysler 300 SRT8 is outlandishly strong on free-way ramps and beyond, offering impressive luxury at a more affordable price, Scripps Howard added.
Just listen to the music pouring from the 4 inch diameter exhaust pipes on the Chrysler SRT8, whose HEMI V-8, incidentally, was increased for 2012 to 6.4 liters, or roughly 392 cubic inches, said Terry Box of the Dallas Morning News.
More graceful, elongated headlamps flow into a bold new grille that looks terrific blacked out, Box declared.
As with every HEMI powered car, the motor shoved me into the seat right off idle, swelling in power through the mid-range and then getting hoarse and mean near its 6,400 rpm red line sounding a bit like a 426, Box wrote in the Dallas Morning News.
The Dallas Morning News asked rhetorically, How in blazes do you justify a $55,000 Chrysler? Easy you compare its performance and style with those in a BMW 528 or Mercedes-Benz E350, the newspaper concluded.
