Used 1990 Chrysler Le Baron Convertible Consumer Reviews
34 year old daily driver
My '90 convertible has been a daily driver from 1989 until this month 2023, when the blown headgasket finally started causing a misfire. (Almost everything is 100% original in the engine bay) My family bought off the side of the road from the original owner in 2015. The 2.5 L is not fast by any means, but extremely hard to kill. Even on her last legs I drove her to the shop to get the motor rebuilt, up a mountain at that. I would trust an old Chryser more than anything on the road these days!

More power than I should have
I had to add a review after reading the so-so others. I LOVE my Lebaron Convertible. The 2.5 Turbo is a fabulous platform to play with. Mine is balanced with forged pistons, new computer, exhaust, intake, cam, injectors, intercooler and extra turbo boost. It'll smoke the tires easily and I've layed down over 40 feet of rubber with it. At freeway speeds I can step on the gas and its still got plenty of power to give. It truly is a sleeper with a base of 150 hp, but you can easily add another 50 with bolt on upgrades, but you'd better hurry, not many accessories are left from MOPAR. The coolest thing though, is I've got loads of power and I can still get 25 mpg if I drive nice.
Fast!
fast little car. it is my dads car and it is faster then my 3.8L Firebird! it handles okay but I love the trans! it feels like a stick shift!
1990 Lebaron Highlander Convertible
I bought my 1990 Lebaron Convertible from the original owner for $500. It had 78000 miles on it. It is a dark blue color with a blue interior and a black top. It was filthy dirty when I got it, but it cleaned up like new. other than normal maintenance items, all I've had to replace it the rear left-hand power window motor. the car runs and drives great, but is pretty slow. Still it is great fun to drive. I gave it to my 16 year old son, and am looking for another one for me. really fun little car.
Great car!
This is a great car. Its worth ever dime. There comfortable, and great to drive. Its 13 years old, and looks like new. There engines are much better then the old 4 cyl. They have alot of power behind them, and for u fast drives i raced a mustang and beat it!!
