The wife bought a 2000 300M with 160,000 on the clock.

It's loaded out & the drivers seat needs a insert sewn in but otherwise every last thing works great in this car

It needs tires but drives well has Infinity speakers that two have a crackle in them

I was actually wondering what everyone's opinions are on the cars overall

I'm pretty sold on the 3.5 & will put a water pump & full timing kit in it soon

Thank's ahead

Great cars.... We had the 300T (Touring)
Just dont let it loose the timing belt... It will bent all the valves....
I think the only other problem we had was one (2007 ?) had a short runner motor problem 2 times...
But all in all....love them cars !!!!

 

Is that the motor where the timing chain drives the water pump ? Or am I thinking of an older motor

 

The belt drives the pump I'll be changing all of that soon

 

They do have there share of problems alot of electical issues..Engine problems were mostly due to lack of maintanance and neglect...As Bob said get the timing belt water pump and tensioners down as soon as possible...Bill
