Interior fit and finish looks great, certainly much better than the locals!

Congratulations Bosco! It's a nice looking machine.

Saw one exactly like it this morning waiting to turn on to the city bound on-ramp of the M4 off the Northern Road. The guy gave it a bootful down the on-ramp and gee it sounded nice!! Only thing was this stupid motorcylist sat right on his tail the whole way down.

Happy motoring and I'm sure you'll enjoy all the creature comforts!

Yeah all great love it,Heaps of tech stuff but really like the sound system and the keyless entry,start.
Sounds good what you hammer it but still needs a cat back system and a tune to remove all the torque tags

Overall its a sweet ride

She goes into a fancy dress store dressed like a bum, but with a bottomless credit card that she can use as she pleases and doesn't get any service, actually, gets asked to leave if memory serves.

Then she returns the following day......

Before buying my GT-P I tried to get a test drive of a GTS Coupe at Madills Noosa several times but as I was turning up in a "povvo" Fairmont Ghia was constaly given excuses as to why I couldn't.

I turned up in my shiny new GT-P about 6 months later and parked it in front of the showroom near to the now heavily discounted previous year GTS wandered in and found the sales guy and then told him in front of the DP not to worry about not letting me test drive the GTS as I bought the blue car out the front.

Yeah have heard of this happening a few times.
Like a mates dad who walked into a Mercedes dealership as a keen and serious buyer... In shorts and thongs. Didn't get any serious help so purchased elsewhere.

Guess they have to treat every person as a serious buyer, which I imaging could get frustrating.

Damn straight! Probs pay more in tax than he makes

Rodge · 15-12-2012, 06:06 PM

Congrats, looks nice and crisp in white. I am certian you will really enjoy it, they're an outstanding motor vehicle and Chrysler deserves to sell them by the boat-load at that price.

GTBenny · 15-12-2012, 09:43 PM

Very nice. If I couldn't buy a GT335 I'd seriously consider one of these.

chopstar87 · 18-12-2012, 01:23 PM

That is one beautiful car... I will be ordering my 300 next year (hopefully Feb)... its was a hard fought fight between the 300 and G6E Turbo, Features vs Performance. but I came to the decision i would use the features a hell of a lot more then the awesome performance of the Turbo.

The budget cant stretch to a SRT8 this time thou :( as i am saving for a wedding in Bora Bora for me & the fiance', but I am getting a 300C luxury.. in white, these cars look brilliant in white... I assume that's why they call their white "brilliant White" lol!

Rodge · 18-12-2012, 01:28 PM

^^Nice car mate, wouldn't rule one of them out for myself at the next change-over.
Sooooo much comfort and technology there's no great hurry to get anywhere, you might as well cruise and enjoy the ride. Well worth optioning in the 19 speaker Harmon Kardon sound system IMO. I agree, the white looks really crisp and clean. Enjoy !!

You getting the diesel or the petrol ?

chopstar87 · 18-12-2012, 03:02 PM

petrol... its a nicer sounding engine and has a good punch for this type of car (considering the weight) and the 8 speed is just so smooth.

I am optioning the stereo for sure, i have been told mine will most likely will have to built for me as not too many are floating around with the upgraded stereo, it was the main reason going the Luxury over the standard 300c, as the 300c couldn't option the upgraded stereo. if its going to be cruiser, its going to need a brilliant stereo in my eyes.

chopstar87 · 18-12-2012, 05:56 PM

It was really good, my local dealer gave me a standard 300c model over night test drive when i approached him and told him i was cross shoppin it against a g6e turbo. The longer i had it, the more i loved it!

big_landau · 05-09-2012, 06:59 PM

the only way an au could look hot is if you own one,to me its like getting on the drink big time and waking up next to some fugly chick.i couldnt face either one first thing in the morning and i would be running down the street with a towel wrapped round my behind in full flight trying to forget about what i had just seen.

for an AU owner to call another car ugly, it must be hideous !!!

Hmmm! Each to their own, however I'm fairly content with my two AU's and the way they look.
I could not justify the $98500 on the road for a GT-P as nice as they are. Beautiful motorcar without a doubt.
The straight line performance of the 300, on paper at least, does look impressive for a vhicle of 1900 plus kgs.
I wonder what they are like if you throw a few twisty bits in the mix.
Nonetheless, they would appeal to some and not to others.
Its the way the world spins.
