Buy a Lincoln TownCar instead

I bought a ‘95 back in 2000 for $14,500.00 with only 50k kms on it from a mature lady. It served me well for 3-5 years but soon after I had problems all over. 1) The steering column was off and had the steering alignment done several times and was never corrected. 2) Weather stripping for the doors were horrible as they were coming apart. 3) The computer needed replacement but Chrysler didn’t want to get me one. 4) It wouldn’t start in winter. 5) When going for a couple hour drive with 3 passengers and some luggage the engine would overheat which is ridiculous for a V6 166 horsepower engine. 6) Exterior decals/styling parts would start to fall off. 7) Prone to rusting even though I wash it every week. That’s just about it for mechanical problems. It’s crazy now that I think about it that a V6 mid-size car has the same fuel consumption as a V8 full-size Lincoln TownCar that I recently bought and the Lincoln is a ‘07 model! In-line 6 and V8 engine’s last longer than V6 engine’s anyway. The interior material is horrible for the price I paid for. I never stalled with a Chrysler Concorde but not starting in winter was a big inconvenience for me. There was a big lag of acceleration even while on the hwy as well as from a start. I liked how the front end was longer than most at the time, good for crush space. It had a moderate sized trunk. It didn’t have any struts when I bought it but put one in a year or two prior to selling. Every car should have struts for the front hood. Their cheap at a Auto Wrecker. I’ll never buy a Chrysler or even anything GM related again. Bad product.

I've had this car for over 5 years now with no major problems, even though I've put it thru almost every conceivable terrain and traffic.If you're looking for reliability + affordability +comfort, take a look at the Concorde. They changed the design in 97 and went crazy on the ovals, personally I like mine better.

VEHICLE HANDLES VERY WELL AND HAS BEEN EXCELLENT AS FAR AS REPAIR ISSUES ARE CONCERNED. THE BIGGEST EXPENSE THAT I HAVE ENCOUNTERED WAS THE RACK AND PINION UNIT,
