It was the Limited model, which is one below the Hemi and has the 3.5L V6 and AWD. It showed as a Premium on my receipt, probably since YYZ doesn't do the "Cool Cars" so much as other airports (occasionally Mustangs show up as Cool Cars).

When I was at YYZ T1 yesterday I noticed several 300C's in the Avis Preferred stalls in the lot, these would have the Hemi and classified as Luxury. When I rented my 300 Limited last week, I didn't see anything that I would've thought categorized as a Luxury car, as I was curious as to what I could've gotten. When I booked Luxury wasn't that much more than Premium, so maybe I'll try for a Luxury next time.
