Last week while in LA before my flight down to Brisbane I hired a car for the day… as usual. Now I talked a couple of months back about how much I love National Car Rental. Well this day sealed the deal, because I scored again!

I have been wanting to try a Chrysler 300C for a while now, they seem to be the “pimp” car down in Australia, over here not so much. So after National managed to find me one in LA I gave it a good what for. I sadly didn’t take any photos of the interior (stupidly) but I did get a couple of the exterior of this fine beast.

This car was fully loaded! Electric everything you can think of. Leather seats, climate control, working sat nav (usually disabled in most rental cars unless you pay extra), sirius XM. But the kicker for me in this car was the cup holders. Wow… it had cup holders. Well yes. But it had dual action cup holders. One side of the attached switch and it chilled your beverage. The other side of the switch and it warms your beverage. And each Cup holder had its own switch. So I could keep my water cold and my coffee hot!

Plus the car wasn’t a slouch either. Probably just as good with the foot down as my truck (though I am pretty sure there was no hemi in this). It was a good car to drive around and now its a tough choice. Challenger or 300C next time? or better yet… something new…
