Used 1992 Chrysler Le Baron Convertible Consumer Reviews
Good fun for little coin!
I've always loved these convertibles and picked one up a 92 cheap in 2005 for my daughter to destroy while learning to drive. She didn't like it and it sat for a year at the side of the house. I started driving it instead of my V10 3/4 ton to save fuel on non truck runs. And it was fun! Junk yards abound with these and other models with common parts. I've spent idle time picking out better parts from wrecks and have basically rebuilt this car. This car is simple to work on and improve. Nobody pimps these cars out. So I am! 1 inch lowering kit, fresh stock paint, upgraded chrome, interior swap from other similar year Chrysler models, Chev Z24 16 inch rims. 225,000kms and going strong!
Love the Car!
This has been a great car, heavy and sturdy, can stand outside of the car and turn the car on even starts up with no problem after months in winter storage. The car has power, my daughter raced it against a Mustang and won. This car is easy to take care of regarding maintenance, and is easy on gas usage which is very nice. The only thing that I wish it had was a drink holder. After all these years it runs great, looks great and we still have a blast driving around with the top down, that is the only way to go.
1 Fun Ride
Very simple to work on, parts arent to expenisive compared to other more expensive convertibles, looks just as good as a new bmw convertible, not very expensive to own or buy, little bit of muscle, not to bad on gas, reliable, not the best car for long trips due to not enough back seat leg room still bigger than most in its class
For my information
Handling of car is exceptrional, enjoy driving. The foriegn motor has never given me a ounce of problems. Transmission could be better.
Good rag top for the money
Bought my Le Baron used with 18000 miles in 1993. Repairs were tranny replacement at 64000, and a water pump. Needs a cable kit for rear window but Chrysler wants $70+ for a length of cable and couple of plastic spools, so getting along without that. Very good top-down car and that is reason I bought it. Decent power and gas mileage, but the seats practically on the pavement and visibility difficult without a booster - sit so low that any following vehicle will glare the rear view mirrow even with low beams. This has been a reliable car and I expect to keep it around.
Okay
I like this car better then my Mothers Linclon Towncar which is a peace of junk. Buy this car. reliability could be better like Honda
Finest car I've ever owned.
In 2019, bought it new 28 years ago, 160,000 miles now and never an engine problem. Whatever the opposite of "lemon" is, this is it. Famous for coolness during the Miami Vice era. Red, the color of Marilyn Monroe's lipstick, with white interior and a beautiful white boot to cover the top when down. Original paint still beautiful (garaged) and somebody tries to buy it from me on sight about every six months. Have put 3 new tops on. Rear window motors died once, top's motor needed replacement twice. Otherwise, just normal maintenance. A future classic car, and I'm leaving it to my kid. Love this car. It's not a "car"-- it's a family member. :>

92 LeBaron Convertible
Bought this car for my two daughters who wanted "anything that the top comes off". The 92 LeBaron convertible is a beautiful classic design. Mine is white with grey interior, trunk lid luggage rack and I have added 15" alloy wheels. It looks great! Unfortunately the car has had problems with its power windows, power top motor, theft alarm, water pump and AC. Some of its due to age however, and if you have a reasonable mechanic with access to used parts, its a big convertible with lots of power.
Welcome to the 20th Century
I own 3 mopars, a '74 charger with a 440, a 2001 neon, and my daily commute, a 92 lebaron. The elctronical problems are limitless, although when working (some to most of the time) a very nice cushion to the outside world. It has get up and go, mostly due to its low end torque and light weiht (only a 3000 pound convertable, thats a skinny lass) The tranny likes to be told what gear, but still doesn't rev too much past 5650 rpm's. It's a nice all around car when working properly. It trades in power and manueverability for comfort and a topless flare.
Little Old Lady from Pasadena's Convert!
My mom purchased this car and passed away in 2001, leaving me her car. I drove it a lot when she had it (she was 85 when she died!). My complaint is that when the top is up, visibility is blocked when turning around to check for cars approaching when merging onto the highway and paint job was not the greatest.
Great, fun convertible!!
Fun, fun, fun...great first car fo any 16-year-old, and great for any age group really!
TOO LOW
THIS IS A FUN SUMMER ONLY CAR. THE SEATS ARE TO LOW WITH THE TOP UP IT MAKES VISIBILTY DIFFICULT. IT'S GOT PLENTY OF PEP AND GAS MILEAGE IS GOOD. ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS ARE PLENTY. IF YOU HAVE A FRIEND THAT GOOD WITH WIREING, YOUR GOOD TO GO. I READ SOMEONE SAID THERE A LOT OF WIND NOISE,I CAN SEE THEY NEVER OWNED A JEEP WRANGLER,WHAT A PIECE OF CRAP. GOT A MEGAPHONE? ENYAW
Okay buy.
I Drive this and my 1991 Honda Accord and my wife's 2003 Infini G35. The G35 and Accord and my father's Taurus all ride better because this car rides avragely with only 59,000 miles on it. This car has wonderful looks and the best cd player. The ride is not to brag about. The Pickup is not the G35 but it is better then my father's Taurus yet it isn't the "91 Accord. 1992 was my lucky year, a son, Clinton elected, and a Chrysler.
