Default G35 vs Chrysler 300

Well I have been a huge fan of the g35 coupe and was going to purchase it but I just saw a sick 300 on 22 inches and with the V8 hemi. I need your help in deciding?? Please be objective Thanks!

That's a tough one. I really like the 300C's looks but I question Chrysler's reliability/resale value.

Chrysler has a winner! Looks like it will be the next "Mod King". I should expect to see a lot of these on the SEMA floor this year.

The 300C is kinda sick. The design definitely says I want to be a Bentley.

BUT!!!

Issue 1 is Chrysler reliability. Supposedly it has gotten better since Daimler gobbled them up, but I still don't trust it.

Second is the window. Man it is tall. The top of the door just about comes up to your shoulder which makes driving with your arm out the window just about impossible. Not to mention that it is kind of restrictive when it comes to field of view.

Be sure you take one for a spin before you get all hyped up about it. I'd say that it's more of a baller ride begging for 22 inch 100 spoke Ds. It doesn't really compare to a G well. Totally different worlds.

i def. think the new 300c's are awesome, but -as everyone has said- it is the first model year (prone to problems) and the 300c and g are totally different beasts. On the same note, if you want to be unique go the g route. there are waaaaaaaaaay too many 300c's around here already. either way, as long as it makes you smile when you turn the key then you made the right decision.

The SRT8 will be badd azz, but it won't be cheap... I will be around high $40k.. I wonder what's fuel mpg for the new HEMI?

Hot car, but still a Chrysler. As for the window thing the 350z has an elbow out the window issue, too.

Fo shizzle.
I really like the 300, at first I didn't but it has really grown on me since I first saw it. And the SRT-8 version is going to be bad a$$! The blacked out one you posted looks good, except too much chrome on the wheels.

I actually like them but they are everywhere I look. The g35 is deffinately for me. But, if the 300 was a little less.... trendy, and I was 15 years older i'd buy one.

They're apples and oranges. If you want a fast, four-door cruiser with style, get the 300c. If you're looking for a slightly more focused vehicle that has a decent amount of luxury as well, get the G35.

Free loaner cars and a slightly better warranty may be reasons to consider the Infiniti. Also, if you want a four-door consider the M45. The last time I was at my local dealership, they had a buttload of them on the lot. They can't be selling for anywhere near sticker, especially with the new M45 coming soon.

you might want to wait to pick one up. They are going to get really cheap! They are using them as rental cars now.
