Did This Russian Driver Really Fill Up a Car With Concrete Because It Was Blocking Him?


You'll forgive us for being a bit skeptical about this bizarre incident, purportedly filmed in Russia, as it’s not every day that someone calls a concrete mixer to fill up a car because it was blocking the way…

In the video posted online, we watch the driver of a white Chrysler 300 approaching a blue sedan that had parked right in front of him. He then smashed the mirror before breaking the window – all while we hear the two people who were filming the scene giggling their heads off.

The number of senior drivers with the financial power to buy a car will only go up in the years to come all around the world’s more developed countries, but particularly in the US. It is therefore necessary to engineer and develop these vehicles to appeal to older buyers, which make up a large proportion of the total number of buyers. Read more »

A 72-Year-Old CEO's 2013 Chrysler 300 is "Amazing" and "Like No Other"


Each decade has its own style and flavors, and even though certain fashion trends come back in style from time to time, we think that some things are better left in the past. Of course, that's our opinion and you may freely disagree with it.

We're told this 2013 Chrysler 300 sedan that we found on eBay was "custom factory built for a retiring 72 year old entrepreneur" and CEO, who obviously had some fond automotive memories from the 1970s and 1980s.

Hear the Hemi in New POV Test Drive of Chrysler's 300 SRT8


The Chrysler 300 SRT8 is a cut-price alternative to the German super saloons. It gets unique styling, a beefy V8 engine, stiffer than normal suspension and big brakes. The result, according to most reviews I’ve seen, is not quite up there with the best of the breed, but it is still comfortable and with its 6.4-liter 470 hp Hemi V8, it’s fast enough and sounds great.

Chrysler Reportedly Considering 300 V6 Diesel for the U.S.


With German automakers strengthening their diesel lineups in the United States, Chrysler is also considering adding an oil-burner to its U.S.-spec 300 sedan. Sourcing the engine wouldn’t be a problem, as the European version of the Chrysler 300, the Lancia Thema, is already available with a diesel unit as is the latest Jeep Grand Cherokee. Read more »

Poll: 2014 Chevrolet SS vs. Dodge Charger vs. Chrysler 300


For sure, there are plenty of sporty flavored, rear-wheel drive sedans in the market, but the first two cars that come to mind as direct competitors to the new 2014 Chevrolet SS are without question, the 2013 Dodge Charger and the 2013 Chrysler 300.

General Motors won't be releasing prices for its bow-tie-badged Holden Commodore SS V until later this year, though, we anticipate to the SS to carry a similar price tag to its Chrysler Group challengers in the non-luxury, rear-wheel drive performance sedan category.

You've Been Donked: Watch Florida Cops Surround this Pink Chrysler 300


Some people lower their cars and dress them up in absurd aero parts to mimic the feel and look of racecars, while others prefer to leave their rides just the way their makers envisioned them, and then there are those who just can't live without a hefty dose of bling, ridiculous sound systems and huge spinners. To each his own, we guess.

Those owners who take the extra step or two it when it comes to customizing their rides, undeniably do it to draw attention upon themselves, though, sometimes, the attention may come from the wrong people.
