1993 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible review from North America
"A fast comfortable ride"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I first got the car it needed a new transmition, the dealers were very helpful and I got a rental while it was being fixed. It's needed a new fuel filter, air filter. The power wire to the stereo and interior lights doesn't work anymore, so I bi-passed a wire from the accessory to my stereo and still have no interior lights. Seats started to wear and rip, but its nothing seat covers can't fix. Other than that nothing has really gone wrong with it, but the rear crossbar needs a routine lube (due to snow)
General comments?
The car is pretty fast due to the Mitsu 3.0 engine. It handles nicely and rides very smooth, not to mention it's a convertible. I find that it leaks when it rains a little bit from the top bars of the convertible top. The interior is quite luxurious for a convertible and the air conditioning is freezing cold. The only downfall I've seen when the car was made is that it doesn't have alloy rims, down with the damn hub caps, white spoke rims look great on it. I bought the car from my dad this year for $1000, a very very good deal considering it has low miles and books for around $3 or 3.5 grand. The car is a great buy and really fun the drive.
