Talk me out of it. It's all blacked out and I really want a nice spring summer fall car...

You'll be challenged and "observed" by both the popo, and the yoyo. Crack whores will knock on your windows at every stoplight.

I like it. Not many cars can pull off the "murdered-out" look (God, how I hate that term).

You'll get pulled by the cops more often with the car looking like that. If you removed the headlight covers and window tint (maybe even go back to stock wheels), it will look a bit more respectable. However as it sits it looks like a drug dealers car.

I actually kinda like it.... though it's definitely over the top.

$23k for a 6 year old 300C doesn't interest me. That thing looks absurd. I mean, it looks cool, but also embarrassing at the same time. Anyway, cops will pull you over constantly (and you'll deserve it) and probably draw on you for every traffic stop, looks like a pimp car.

if you do buy it, throw on a chrome front grill and a cop's spotlight on the driver's side. Maybe that will help you not get pulled-over as much. LOL

Only a 6.1L, and all the other drawbacks of a pre-2011 LX platform SRT (poor handling). Boo :p

I vote no!

edit: and the SRT is not a 300C. It's just a 300 SRT.

edit2: that is almost exactly private party KBB price for that car though. Still, ewww.

It's an SRT, not a C (the poster gave it both, for some reason, but that doesn't exist).

It was a 40-50k car new. The price is fair, assuming it hasn't been ruined, but it still is nasty, and will handle like a log truck. They didn't bother with proper suspension in the LX SRTs until 2011.

CTS-V is going to be about the same price for that year/mileage and will be a better car (less power, slightly lighter, not sure on handling though of the older CTS-Vs). It's nothing like the current CTS-V, but if you like that style of car (and if you're looking at a 300, you do), it's a better choice.

Low mileage is nice, but it's too old to be commanding that kind of a price.

The visual mods look stupid as hell and like others said you'll get pulled over constantly.

Also, almost any mod to a car will decrease, not increase its value. Visual mods will always make a car worth less, not more.

It's a Chrysler.

It looks way better stock.
They are reliable though. That engine is rock solid and the transmission is too.
I've always wanted a 300C SRT8.. I would just pass and find an unmolested one if it were me.
