Chrysler rolled out three flavors of 300 at NYIAS. The first was the burly SRT8, which looks awesome in white. Next was the Executive Series, which brings old school luxury touches to the big LX cruiser. Finally there is the 300S, a de-chromed version rocking a Beats by Dr. Dre ten speaker audio system. The 300S will also be the first 300 to get the new eight-speed ZF transmission. More pics of all three rides after the jump!

.. CAN YOU SAY "EYE CANDY"?? I’m a hard core Mopar guy, and I gatta say I am IN LOVE with the new 300 and Charger, the 200 is great, but not my kinda thing, and the new Town & County is definitely the best ever (how cool is a chromed out black minivan that carts you and the soccer team around in style?) -- I think the guys over at Mopar did a great job bringing out these three attitudes, but of coarse my favorite (and the favorite of any real Mopar enthusiast) is big beautiful SRT8

I like it... It's like Chrysler meets quality (finally) meets: Jaguar, Audi, and Cadillac... thanks to FIAT; I'd buy one if I was in the market for a North American sedan with European sheik

Seriously though if you took of the Chrysler badge, and placed a Audi logo on the first picture. Wouldn't that confuse a lot of people? Then the picture of the rear (Grey Chrysler 300) dosen't it look like a hybrid of a Lincoln MKS, and Jaguar XJ? The food line, and wheels on the white one scream Cadillac to me... Am I the only one?

Here's my take: Interior- love it, absolutely love the red leather. The whole interior looks much cleaner and more modern. The steering wheel in the S model looks the best. Where as the SRT steering wheel looks too cheap-5th gen Camaro-esque. I feel like the interior in the last 300 was trying too hard to be European-level luxury. The wood trim proves that the new 300 is striving towards the 'professional business' person's automobile. I'd be anxious to see how much glare comes off the flashy black plastic in the S model. Exterior- Taillights are great, I think the headlights on the previous model were much more old school American luxury, the rims on all of the models look pretty decent right now, I dont like the grilles as much as the previous gen- especially on the black colored model...that looks too bentley continental ish. I will say this...cars often look much better in person so I will wait till I see a 300 in person before making a final conclusion. Driving- well if the Hemi versions drove anything like the last generation 300s, I cant wait to get behind the wheel! Im also anxious to try out the new 8 speed zf transmission.....though if Chrysler really wanted to make a drivers car, offer the SRT version with a true 6 speed manual.
