A bit sluggish on acceleration.
Noisy cabin, a convertible.

Look up a YouTube channel called "Car Starz"; there is a video devoted to the car in the movie, explaining all the details of this customized Dodge.

Some sources say it's a Chrysler LeBaron, others say a Dodge 600. Either way it's a "K" Car that wore many different nameplates of the time.

Was this the car in the movie "Planes Trains and Automobiles" 1987?
Pretty sure it was a convertible, but had wood on the sides.
