Wish It Were Better

1991 Chrysler Imperial 4dr Sedan
Handsome, very comfortable, roomy car,
but considering my low mileage and the
high-end price, seriously unreliable.
Since I have owned it, the ABS,
electrics, suspension, transmission,
wires (computer) and air compressor
have failed and had to be replaced
between the ages of 6 months and
approximately 6 years. Engine seems
fine because oil was changed every 3-
4,000 … miles without fail. Transmission
is particularly poor. Brakes not good
either. After 88,000 miles, I will
sell it because I have to keep putting
big money into it.
Little known great ride

1990 Chrysler Imperial 4dr Sedan
Overall great car. Perfect size for family of 5. Rear seat/leg space just comparable-or better- than Crown Vic. 15" wheels would have been better choice. Aquired car w/ 90000 miles & ran it another 100000. Air suspension gave out & replaced w/ New Yorker suspension. Elegant body design w/ high level interior. Would have kept it longer had there been a need for a 3rd car. Ample trunk … space w/ handy air compressor for emergencies.

1993 Chrysler Imperial 4dr Sedan
Big luxurious 1980's style American boulevadier. Quiet and comfortable on smooth roads, rough pavement causes abrupt and harsh ride. Poor handling, and lots of super floaty motions on quickly undulating freeways. Spacious, first class looking, fully equipped interior Impressively roomy rear seat legroom. Disappointingly, the first class interior styling is betrayed by average … contstruction and assembly. Rattles in doors and dash occasionally sour the luxury ambiance. Powerful but boomy 10 speaker Infinity Ultimate Sound system. Overall a nice blast from the past available for bargain prices. Imperials do not stand up well to abuse or neglect, watch out for well maintained examples.
This car keeps on going

Purchased said Chrysler Imperial in 1990 and have owned it ever since. I now have 137,500 miles on vehicle and have had no problems maintenance wise except for usual expected replacement parts, oil changes, tires,etc. I plan on keeping this car for at least another 20 years or so. You can take that to the bank!
