DCX has stepped up to the plate in the past couple of years and have been making great vehicles that fit my needs. I used to be a Ford, cough cough cough, man....
IMO the Writers, Editors, and publishers of the Mags are extremely BIASED when it comes to Mopar vehicles.... Just like most media employees. IMO
Well - as of November 26, 548 people have looked at the poll, 88 have voted and 22 have posted a comment.
These poll results might be important to the thousands of visitors that come here thinking about buying an LX car (Chrysler 300; Dodge magnum; Dodge Charger), don't you think? Especially with all the negative buzz from Consumers Reports saying the vehicle was reported as unreliable.
Now, 88 votes, regardless of how you vote, are not enough to give this poll statistical accuracy. Your vote, as an owner, can help give all of us a realistic, accurate idea of how these cars stack up.
And - if you are an owner, but not yet a member, why not join so you can vote? It's easy - just a user name and an e-mail address and you are a member!
If we triple the vote, then your opinions will count for something.
Click on the poll now and vote, please.

I know it is not normally done, but I feel Chrysler has to spice up 300s and especially more luxury 300C for 2008. Yes, midterm upgrade to interior, NAV, sound system and few other areas is a must. This will add new life to the car and return of people who change a car every 2-4 years. Yep, technology is changing fast and I definitely will not want to pay the money they ask for the NAV/sound, if it stays the same. Since I used to NAV, it is a must have accessory in my car now. I am hoping DCX is reading.
we love ours. Luxury and performance rivaling many cars that cost thousands more!
Dealer network needs improvement. Car is great.

Well since my first LX was a 300C that was nothing but a nightmare and was eventually bought back.....then I looked for a car for months....couldn't find something that met my standards and finally purchased a 300Srt.....I'd say chances would be good that I would buy again. Personally, I just don't see the value of paying at least twice the money for something that would fall into the parameters I'm looking for. All of the other cars I didn't even feel comfortable in so that even makes it worse for me to justify buying something else.
With that said....there definately needs to be some technology updates in regards to creature comforts so as to seal the deal for me to buy again. Maybe its a model thing where they don't want to put "nicer" components in the platform so as to have that carrot there for people to buy up....dunno. I'm interested to see what the Challenger SRT will bring to the table. At this point for my 300 I'm waiting for the aftermarket to get sorted out so I can pull the trigger on a stroker/forced induction mod. Also, DCX really needs to educate their dealers on customer support. Maybe its my area...nothing but 5 stars here....but they don't seem to care about you on an individual level. The way I see it if you buy the "flagship" model and have a problem with it....the dealer should at least make you feel like they want to help you fix it.
I just can't see myself buying any other American car....not even a C6 Z06. My buddy has one and it barely has over 1k miles on it and its beginning to rattle and make noises like his earlier ones did. No way would I pay what they are selling for....SRT for me any day of the week right now.
