Objections to the 2005 Chrysler 300C SRT-8: Editor's Advice: Chrysler's 300 line is impressive, and the new 300C SRT-8 is the icing on the cake. Muscle car purists will thrill at lighting up the big 20-inch tires with the SRT-8's 425 horsepower Hemi V8 engine, but may balk at the lack of a manual transmission offering. Chrysler's SRT division seemingly has the Midas touch, and the 300C SRT-8 is sure to be a hot seller. Just don't be surprised if there's a waiting list and premium to be paid at your local dealer for Chrysler's full-size rocket ship. |
