2016 Chrysler 300S: Complete Road Test

2016 Chrysler 300S: Complete Road Test
We evaluate both the V8 and V6 300 models.

[@robertmiller1984]

Great Review!!! Loved it. The 300 really is a great car. Im actually going to pickup my 2016 Chrysler 300S on Monday. I opted for the 5.7 Hemi. In Redline Red Tri-coat. Pano roof and all the other goodies. Super Excited. Will be posting a video myself.

[@chadhaire1711]

Too bad they only sell the SRT overseas

[@robertmiller1984]

chad haire Yeah I know. I loved the 300 srt

[@mikexcanxjerk]

How has the hemi been for you ?

[@suhailns3688]

Great great great review. This is my favorite car, it is perfect. I can't wait for the new video for you.

[@ericmarentette]

I've watched a ton of car reviews on KZbin and this is one of the funnest yet.

[@chadhaire1711]

have 191 other funny ones

[@JasonDROID33887]

Thank you for that review. I am considering purchasing a 2016 Platinum. So this helps educate me.

[@koso4292]

You can tell apart the v6 and v8 300s apart for one, the side skirts are different, the v6 is just a basic side skirt while the v8 have a indent line running across the entire side skirt, another way it's the spoiler, typically the v6 mode doesn't come with a spoiler at all, while the v8 usually will. The last part would be the rims, the v6 all come with 19s and the v8 have 20s standard. The honeycomb design on the rims are easy to tell by from the 19s and 20s.

[@jorgecarretero6155]

Mark P You are correct about the difference between the v6 and v8 but only from 2015 300s and on but my understanding is the 19s wheel are for the AWD and 20s for the RWD in v6 and v8 or that change also from 2015?

[@zeekstar2649]

Mark Prenaj yeah

[@donski170]

Watched this many times. Such a bad ass car!!

[@chadhaire1711]

this is old--you need to watch the newer ones--and read the fan mail from my new fan club. His name is C.J.Colvin. read his posts. LOL

[@donski170]

I am a big fan. I have been almost all of these. Besides informative you are very entertaining.

[@chadhaire1711]

well I should have an SRT tomorrow which should be more entertaining than the 300

[@CJColvin]

Don Gronczewski It's a big car for Mr.B.

[@CI_1111]

Just bought this, I’m excited for it to get delivered, it’s badass 🔥

[@猫肉-q2y]

言葉がよくわからないけど素敵な車を紹介してくれてるから良いです。

[@shiftintohigh5564]

My buddy put the Hemi emblem on the deck lid. But you could also put it on the side in the same place as a Dodge. Love you reviews Chad! Brutally honest! Like the 300.

[@chadhaire1711]

have 270 other vids to watch--many mopar. also find my articles on the DODGEFORUM.com site

[@shiftintohigh5564]

chad haire Thanks, and I will take a look. Partial to the Mopar FCA stuff. Retired from FCA. Actually AMC, Chrysler, DCX, Chrysler and then FCA. But I watched 1 or two off brand reviews because you are so snarky and dead nutz on! Kudos good sir!👍👍👍

[@chadhaire1711]

amc? holly crap...AMC Hornet SC360

[@shiftintohigh5564]

chad haire Yeah, most of that stuff was gone when I arrived. Although I drove an An Eagle Wagon, J10 stick shift pick up, Alliance convt(s) with a stick, Renault Encore. A few Grand Wagoneers. A slew of Cherokees And one I6 cyl 4.0 stick shift short bed Comanche that would fly! And oh yes...wait for it a Renault Fuego! ( dealers called it a rolling lawsuit) I cant even go into the Chrysler stuff. Viper trucks, SRTs, anything with aHemi. But also back in the 4 Cly turbo era Shelby Daytona Zs. One Twin Turbo Stealth. Owned a Viper, just sold for the 911. Yep 32 years of weird Field cars. I have a, Alpha Romeo Stelvio now as daily. It is off the hook. I will look to see if you reviewed it.

[@chadhaire1711]

I did

[@2012htcme]

Enjoyed your review man thanks for that!

[@chadhaire1711]

see my Hellcat & SRT videos

[@DC_RC]

ONLY THE V8 5.7 300s HAS THE SPOILER. THAT's HOW YOU TELL :)

[@chadhaire1711]

No that is how YOU tell. Do you really think that out of 340 million people more than 500 will notice? LOL

[@mederic999]

Chrysler is planning to keep this generation of Charger/300 until 2020. By the way, the dual exhaust is also standard on the V6, so indeed there no way to tell them apart except by hearing the engine sound...

[@chadhaire1711]

It is optional on the V6

[@moparfam300c]

+chad haire I want the HEMI, it's bad enough FCA discontinued the SRT model with that fire-breathing 6.4L HEMI, this is the only 300 I know (with a HEMI) that can relate to the SRT because since it's a sport trim, it's has bolstered seats, lip spoiler, paddle shifters, and 20 inch wheels, especially that 5.7L HEMI engine (which is all we can get)

[@chadhaire1711]

they still make the SRT but outside the US

[@moparfam300c]

+chad haire Naw, they got those at the car dealership right now, of course there not here in the United States, like I didn't know that already

[@donski170]

You need to get these sport cars on a drag strip.

[@xxxmarwin59]

مثل مالتنا بضبط هم بيض وهم 2015 وهم نفس التايرات وهم مثل الحدايد مال تايرات وهم بل رقم

[@sanchezbrooks5457]

Woohhhh my brother good review

[@chadhaire1711]

have 253 other videos to watch

[@raiders1846]

U can tell its a v8 because it comes with the spoiler the regular v6 300s doesnt come with the spoiler

[@chadhaire1711]

yes it does

[@terrylee773]

I have one without and it’s the 5.7 but I will be getting one installed

[@chadhaire1711]

@Paul Racine it did if you ordered it.......or are you saying the factory is wrong and you know better?

[@stephencarden4133]

Dude funny af

[@100RentalCars]

I'm not a huge fan of this car, but it does look good in white. Does anyone have a 300c with a sunroof? I'm having a bit of an argument on my channel about head room. I say this car has none, but everyone else is telling me it's not an issue for them.

[@gspainting11]

100 Rental Cars I just wanted to respond to your argument about the sunroof in the 300 C. I have a 2015 300 C with the hemi engine. I am not the tallest guy (5‘10“) and I have plenty of headroom. Also it’s very comfortable car.

[@Dialysisforever]

I just watched a review and he says there is a lot of head room - kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJm2ZXSbbpihjpo

[@coureurdebois]

dont you love all those plastic and injection mold interior panels. : )

[@CJColvin]

Justin Bouche Chad Haire loves every car that's made out of plastic and loves cars that doesn't outlast the engines in the 92-96 Ford Trucks.

[@jacobreed47]

I can think of others with rwd and a V8 option that's American. CTS V. dodge Charger,Cheverolet SS sedan.

[@chadhaire1711]

Dodge is the same car

[@TheGomer84]

Jeez Chad keep crushing Chryslers under trees and they won't give you anymore cars to test.

[@chadhaire1711]

what about the Acura NSX I did last week?

[@blackice7408]

Do the 2017 and up Chrysler 300s with the hemi have the active exhaust systems like in the chargers and challengers

[@chadhaire1711]

I did the Chargers with same engine..... same car...look it up.

[@blackice7408]

chad haire yea I know. I've seen it. I'm just asking if the 2017 and up Chrysler 300 S have the same active exhaust system as in the 2017 and up charger and challenger rt's

[@chadhaire1711]

I am told it is and for cost cutting it should be.......as they are the same basic car. The pipe angle might be different

[@blackice7408]

chad haire ok thanks man

[@djhaloeight]

no they don’t. my ‘19 300C just has regular exhaust. quiet as a church mouse.

[@kn7gez]

Where's the cat?

[@chadhaire1711]

+kn7gez sleeping

[@xxxmarwin59]

اسف مو 2015لا 2017

[@redthunder186]

you can tell from the spoiler the v6 doesnt come with one

[@chadhaire1711]

like the average person knows that?

[@graham3400]

That was a bit of a jackass remark.

[@chadhaire1711]

I am like Trump--tell it like it is.

[@graham3400]

.

[@chadhaire1711]

So you are a mind reader and know what he was thinking? hahaha I don't need any help with my videos. But I welcome all comments and insults. So fire away--I am not blocking you--but come up with something better next time.

[@BrandonLee-rv6cy]

Door trim

[@ImportDomestic2006]

I can think of a couple! How about in the late to thousands Pontiac G8 or how about now since 2014 to 2017 the Chevrolet Chevy SS.

[@walkermatthews7514]

“Complete road test didn’t start till about 11 mins...

[@chadhaire1711]

so it would have been better not to describe what we are driving before hand?

[@juanemiliobertiniarbelaez429]

[@donski170]

[@zeekstar2649]

aDayInTheLife fiat bought out chrysler.. the dude is trolling lol

[@Dialysisforever]

I think I will put a big ole Fiat badge on my Scatpack then go kick some Mustang butt.

[@mikexcanxjerk]

You think this car is a gas guzzler ? Or no , I mean 25 ish on the highway is pretty good , but what if you're doing mostly city ?? Need an option debating between the hemi and 300 S version

[@chadhaire1711]

[@mikexcanxjerk]

chad haire I’m aware of the EPA SIRRRRRR, but in real world driving is it bad or okay

[@chadhaire1711]
