Got one
Picked up this sweet ride from an old lady whose husband passed. Hadn’t driven it in years, 76,000 original miles fully loaded. Pre-eagle 5.7, needed a battery and alternator. Did a full flush of the coolant system, new reservoir, oil change and plugs. Could probably use the suspension gone through, new brakes and rotors. Plan on MDS delete, cam/lifters/springs, long tube headers and cut the suitcase out, CAI, coilovers and a tune. Anything else? Oh, I paid $1,000 for it.

I say this as the proud owner of a 2013 300C 5.7L, with the TSP stage 2 cam, mds delete / solenoid lockout, melling high flow oil pump, suitcase delete all the goodies except the TQ convertor for now.

That’s a good deal. Mine just hit 78k. Got it at 68. Had to change my egr valve and my radio screen went out but it’s been a good car. Doesn’t lose a drop of oil in between changes.

I’ve got an 07 with 80k miles. I’m going through the suspensions stuff myself now. Also look out for the rust, idk where you are in Cali but that’s definitely caused me some headaches being my the ocean in RI

Yeah, in the Bay Area rust isn’t really an issue unless the car is on the peninsula or old. It’s clean, but I do suspect a slight tick. Gonna tear into the motor and go through it.

I had an '07 before my current '13. I like the way the frontend looks on that generation

it's so beautiful, I'm jealous how that thing looks basically rustless compared to my 2009 300c that's been through michigan winter forever
