Cloud with a Silver lining
I purchased the Chrysler Cirrus 3 years ago. The car looks great, rides good and takes imperfections in the road with very good control. I average over 30 miles to the gallon on long trips. I do not feel tired after 8 or 9 hours of driving I contribute this to the nice seat design. J.D. Powers rates cars after just 3 month of ownership stating owner satisfaction. I think 3 years is a better measuring tool. I have had not one problem. With Mercedes Benz working with the Chrysler auto group their cars can only get better. Nice job Chrysler.
Nice, but could have been better
This is a nice car. Built like a tank. Almost as heavy as one, too. Engine is under-powered, though, and is shoe-horned into the car. This makes it hard to work on engine components, which I have done several times. Tranny also hesitates to shift when you floor it. You practically red-line before it goes into the next gear. Avg. fuel economy for a V6. For the amount of driving that I do, I have to fill the 16-gallon tank up about once a week. Body and paint are in great shape, except for some minor dings on the doors from inconsiderate shoppers/neighbors/coworkers and a few tiny rust bubbles on the very tip of the hood from rocks flying up on the highway.
Reliable
I bought the car used with 87000 miles on it. It now has 139000. Replaced fuel pump and ball joints only. Excellent car.
My best Mopar yet!
I have driven this car about 120000 since new. At about 105,000 miles I had to have seals replaced in auto transmission, and new drive and accessory belts. The dealer recommended replacement of the water pump at that time Also water pump failure beyond 100,000 could happen with major damage resulting. So while in the neighborhood of the pump it seemed wise to replace it. A recent trip of about 1200 miles I averageD slightly over 30 MPG. Planning on a new car in the spring of 2003 awon't drive past a Chrysler dealer to find the replacement car.
Great Value
This is alot of car for the money. That was true when I bought it new and its still true today. It has many standard features, including leather interior, that are expensive options on other cars. 45,000 miles and not a single problem. I think it holds its own against much more expensive cars.
