Winding Road Video: 2012 Chrysler 300 SRT8
Powered by a 6.4-liter Hemi V-8, Chrysler’s new 300 SRT8 is, to put it simply, a beast. There’s no better way of illustrating that fact than by taking it out for a few acceleration runs on the wet roads around the Winding Road offices.
First Look: 2012 Chrysler 300 SRT8
Well-heeled hooligans, your car has arrived. This is the 2012 Chrysler 300 SRT8. It shares the same 6.4-liter Hemi V-8 found in the Dodge Charger SRT8 and the Dodge Challenger SRT8 392. It goes fast.
Driven: 2011 Chrysler 300C
There is little argument to the fact of the last-generation Chrysler 300C being a very well received car during its time on sale in the US (2005-2010). Not only did the 300 record massive sales in those first few years—over 250K units through model year 2007—but it was a critical darling, too. That’s a fact that was far from lost on Chrysler’s PR team as they introduced members of the media to the new car this week, as the assemblage of marketers, executives, and engineers managed to utter some version of the phrase “most awarded car in history” about once every four minutes. We get it, people liked what the 300 was selling.

First Look: 2011 Chrysler 300
Chrysler’s big sedan is getting an equally big refresh for 2011. Visually, the new front fascia features a grille reminiscent of the smaller Chrysler 200, while the headlights and taillights also get redesigned. And yes, those are Audi-esque LEDs around the front headlights.
Driven: 2010 Chrysler 300C
In theory Chrysler’s 300C is an aging design that by now is in need of replacement, well… just because. Yet every time I climb behind the wheel of one I’m reminded of what a fundamentally good car this has been and still is. There’s a lot to like, here, starting with the 300C’s stout-hearted engine—the 5.7-liter, 360-horsepower Hemi V-8, which points out an ample 389 pound-feet of torque.
