As a 56 year-old Mustang generation racer I have always had American cars. I bought a 300M with the suspension package and I was thrilled for 150,000 miles. That car kept me an American buyer.

I love my C, BUT it may be my last American vehicle. This has as much to do with the dealers I must deal with as it does the car itself. My friends drive Volvos, BMWs, Infinitys, and Benzes. They all rave about their dealer's service. They all love my car (looks and power) and so do I, BUT for the price I may be looking at a "G" or an IS or a 3series or even a used "E" class.

Five-Star Service is a joke. It is the little things that drive me nuts and when you get into this price range, the little things shouldn't be going wrong to drive us owners nuts. The service should be absolutely first class, especially on TSBs and other troubleshooting issues, but it is NOT!

When my other family car was a Volvo S80 T-6, the dealer I dealt with was wonderful. They did everything they could to make my service experience a good.

I would buy another one. I would buy a srt-8. If you think about it. All the manufacters have problems in some area, if you really think about it. For some more than others. If you treat your car right it'll treat you right.

Does their opinion jive with the members on this forum (as a Moderator, I am aware that many initially joined this forum to get answers to a car related problem they were having).

This poll is very simple. Based on your experience with your LX vehicle, would you buy another one?

This might be hard to believe, but (knock on wood - which im doing right now) my car was only taken to the dealer once and that is b/c im a moron and didnt know the flashing orange light was b/c my 22s didnt have TPM - haha

Nothing else has broken or screwed up on my car, and i have modded the living hell out of it - great car would buy another and am thinking of buying either a 300c or magnum r/t

I have been a Chrysler man for years and have had lots of different models during this time. I like my C but not sure whether I would buy another LX. I do not like the SRT8 but that is my opinion and not trying to put anyone down and do agree with the person about not having a spare on the SRT8.

I see that DC is ready to let go 10,000 employees with 2000 of them here in Canada and the Brampton plant is mentioned as the 300's Mags and Chargers are beginning to lose customer appeal, but I guess that is normal in the car market.

I will have to wait and see what is new coming on the market from DC but I feel the days of the big powerful engines may be coming to an end with all the talk of this global warming crap. It is bloody cold where I am right now and I see that it is cold all over the world, so go figure!!!

Well... counting the Chrysler Town & Country we had up until we purchased the Heritage Edition... the MSRT8 makes the fourth DCX vehicle in a row that we've had... can I have two votes?

05 RWD 300C, traded to 06 AWD 300C for winter driving. Odd but both cars have different 'personalities', Wish I could have one each.
