The Chrysler 300M is a full-sized luxury sports sedan produced by Chrysler from 1998 to 2004. Chrysler Corporation revived the 300 name on the 300M. This time it was a front-wheel drive, 255 hp V6 engined car using the Chrysler LH platform.
While not technically part of the famous "letter series" that was built from 1955 to 1965, Chrysler did use the next letter after the last of the series, the 300L. It was 10 inches shorter than the Chrysler Concorde to make it exportable to Europe as a sports sedan, and was priced above the Concorde. The 300M was positioned just below the flagship LHS (1999–2001) and Concorde Limited (2002–2004).
Chrysler redesigned the LH-cars in 1998. The Eagle Vision filled the "import-fighter" segment and its second-generation replacement was benchmarked against the BMW 5-series. However, the entire Eagle line was dropped by Chrysler. The automaker brought back the "300" model name, although the cars were not rear-wheel-drive, nor did they have engines rated at 300 horsepower as did the historic models.
Had the Eagle brand not been dropped, the 300M would instead be sold as a redesigned Vision. Indeed, design images surfaced on the Internet showing a 300M with an Eagle badge on the grille. The 300M was similar in exterior and almost identical in the interior as the Concorde. The 300M also fit the European "5 metre" (16.4 ft) size class for exports to Europe, unlike the substantially similar, yet larger Chrysler LHS. It had the same wheelbase as the Dodge Intrepid, Eagle Vision, and pre-2002 Chrysler Concorde, reducing its length by cutting front and rear overhangs.
The 300M Special was offered beginning midyear 2002. It featured a 255 hp 3.5 liter engine designed to use premium (91+ octane) gasoline and producing 258 pound force-feet of torque, with a 3.89 final drive ratio. Performance-type dual exhaust, high-performance brakes, and 18-inch Z-rated tires were standard, with Michelin Pilot Sport 245/45R18 performance tires optional. Other standard features of the Special included premium "Waterfall" leather seats, signal mirrors, body cladding, and slightly lower ride height. This model also included high-intensity discharge headlamps and imitation-carbon-fiber interior trim panels that replaced the standard woodgrain trim panels.
