1985 Chrysler New Yorker review from North America
"Awesome"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I guess the headgasket has a small leak in it, so it leaks a little bit of oil, but I've been religiously checking it and it just seems like a drop or two here and there.
The old owners got rear ended, so there is a small dent on the rear quarter panel, but trunk closes fine.
Clearcoat is starting to chip, but will buff out soon it'll be fine.
General comments?
I bought this car a few days ago from a very old couple that have owned it for the past decade. Always been garaged!
The turbo runs good, as does the engine and transmission.
The car rides like a dream, it has all leather interior with dual power seats, power everything. Has many electronic features NOT on most new cars (temperature, directional, fuel economy, estimated time to arrival, car TALKS to you!, 6 speaker sound system, cruise control, air conditioning)
The car isnt the fastest or best handling, but for cruising, you cant beat it. Get many stares from the ladies, with one very hot girl coming up and asking for my number (she had the same year/model car except maroon)
