Great looking car after 14 years. Still attracts attention for its beautiful styling.

Best car I have ever owned for value and low cost operation. Averages 26 MPG in all types of driving.

Spacious interior and trunk (18.7 cu. ft.).

Cab forward design pushes the wheel well back into the area where your left foot needs to rest while driving, and it's uncomfortable.

Very respectable power and torque for a 4 speed transmission and 3.2L V-6 engine.

Handling is nimble and sporty for a car of this size.

Good fit and finish on all body panels, and no exterior rust after 14 years in Michigan winters.

Air conditioner lost some freon charge annually, and I added cans as required to keep it charged to the correct pressures. Freon charge with sealant finally did the trick, and it no longer leaks.

For a $25,000 car, I have been very pleased, and would purchase another Chrysler vehicle.

Both head gaskets blew at 140,000kms, along with the intake manifold.

Electronic problems galore.

Transmission case cracked at 160,000kms.

Altogether I have spent over $9000 on maintenance and repairs over the last 2 years.

I can't stand feeling the road through my accelerator pedal. My Nissan Micra had a more substantial pedal.

Hot start problem that no dealer can figure out.

Nice to drive, good paint, but just like most Chrysler products, they're unreliable. I have been stuck on the side of the road 5 times with this car.

Oil light comes on when stopped.

Sound system confusing.

Steering wheel alignment.

Driver window makes weird noise when rolled up.

This is my first official car, and for what I paid, I am extremely satisfied. Sure, there were some issues. When I went for a test drive, the brakes were very touchy, but the dealership replaced the brakes and gave it an oil change for free. Pickup is awesome. Comfort and style are fantastic.

So the good ol' Chrysler Concorde... Well let me start out by saying the car blows. I bought it from a dealer with a warranty for the transmission and engine. Well those weren't the problem, it was the front end; first the tie rod went out.. then the stabilizer arm went out.. then the control arm went out, then the wheel bearing went out. Now the struts are going out in the back.

Oh, and the plastic between the windshield and hook is on its last legs, and the windows barely want to go up.. and when they do, they make this screeching sound that will wake the neighbors.

Oh, and can't forget the lovely power leather seats.. mine are special; they stopped working and fell back. Nice, but I mean it's a good car; I recommend it to everyone who wants to spend their money on a car, get a few months out of it, and then use it as a lawn ornament.

The car blows.
