Reviews SummaryThe Chrysler 300 is available in four trim levels—Limited, 300S, 300C, and 300C Platinum—with a choice of either rear-wheel or all-wheel drive across the lineup. Engine choices include a 3.6-liter V6 or a 5.7-liter V8, both of which get paired to an 8-speed automatic transmission. No matter which 300 you choose, you’ll get a bold and luxurious large sedan with plenty of power. | |
Reviews SummaryLincoln was a legend. The Continental, which carried enormous V12 engines in the ‘40s and several U.S. presidents in the ‘60s and ‘70s, was a masterpiece. Today, Lincoln is lucky to be in business after years of cost-cutting and intense foreign competition. But today, there are new Lincolns like the 2017 Continental, which alongside the Navigator SUV is the brand’s most critical—and possibly its last—chance at success. | |
