300C Photos and Mods

300c mods
Often times I look at Yahoo and Google image search for photos of the 300C that other owners have taken to post here. A neighbor of mine that's a true gearhead said the 300C is the most modified car ever. Those are great photos of the 300c to see.

I didn't think to look for these types of photos at Flickr, but wow, there's some great stuff. Check out these images of the 300c.

Yahoo! Autos Custom Launches at SEMA

Yahoo! today announced the beta launch of Yahoo! Autos Custom, a new site that provides a suite of online tools and services that enable enthusiasts to find, use, share and expand their automotive knowledge. Premiering today at the 2005 Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) trade show, Yahoo! Autos Custom brings together a number of powerful features and resources never before available on one site, including personalized gallery pages, a new Installer Search tool, exclusive content and more. Via the AutoChannel

The new Yahoo site allows you to create a web page for your favorite ride. You'll need a free Yahoo ID to do that. If you have a Yahoo email account, you can use that to login. I created a page for what else, a 300C.

The Yahoo Autos Custom site offers photos, message boards, info on installers and a general search tool as well.

Dub Car Show San Francisco 2005

Here's a very nice 300C SRT8 shot from the front at the San Francisco Dub Car Show. Notes from CarDomain:

"The Cow Palace, in San Francisco, offered a jam packed day of music, rides,
bling, models and so much more. This was the 11th and final installment for the
2005 DUB Car Show events calendar. What better way to spend a Saturday
afternoon, than to check out the rides and kick it to the style of Twista, Mike
Jones, Trillville, and the Clipse and to DJ Lady Tribe burnin' up the
turntables? How better to complete an all-star event than with the host of all
hosts, Vida Guerra?"

Here's another: sweet!

Chrysler SRT8 Test Drive

Inside Line, a website from Edmunds has done a follow up test drive of the 2005 Chrysler SRT8.

"The biggest challenge when road testing the all-new Chrysler 300C SRT-8 is finding a suitable road. Normally testing cars in Southern California is a dream come true. Year-round warm weather, picturesque scenery and miles of twisting asphalt sound like the perfect equation for reviewing the latest four-wheeled conveyance. But the last two months have seen rainfall on a biblical scale, transforming much of the Golden State into a dismal shade of muddy brown."

I like the Bottom Line:
"It's got racecar poise wrapped in street-wise looks — the 21st Century Muscle Car has arrived."

Full review and SRT8 Video and here's another cool

I have not been able to get myself to test drive the SRT8 yet. I know I'll want one and my 300C is still too new to even think of trading in or selling. What about both? BZZZZ! Wrong answer says the check book.

Chrysler Chronos


While searching the web for 300C mods, I came across this very cool Chrysler concept car from 1998 called the Chronos. That grille look familiar?

Allpar has a great description of Chronos and why it was never put into production. If the cabin wasn't so small, I would seriously consider a car like this.
