The 2000 Chrysler 300 for buyers

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2000 Chrysler 300; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before buying the 2000 Chrysler 300, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

Before you sign for the 300

A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.

Engine and fuel

It uses the 3.5L 6-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

It is rated at 12.4 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 37 litres. Expect about $19.22 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,550 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Size and space

As a large sedan, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. The EPA lists 481 litres for luggage, roughly a family's bags for a long weekend.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.

Rent it for a week first

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent first, buy later: a week with the 300 answers the big questions. Rent the 300 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.

The cost of driving it

The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $192.20 at our price setting.

Picking a year and a trim

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
