I bought my Lebaron with 98,000 miles and now have 149,000. It has been a great car and I have replaced parts mostly out of precaution. I do an average of 40 to 50,000 miles a yr. The oil gets changed every 3 to 4 weeks. If you can find one with the 3.0 V6 go for it and enjoy it.
Not a bad ride at all

Bought this car from a retired couple who bought it brand new in 94 and stored it every winter. Paid $2200 for it with 87,000 miles in great condition. 2 years, 2 winters and 16,000 miles later, it's still going strong with no major maintenance (other than oil and such). However, the winters have taken their toll on it. I use it as a work car and it gets me their every day with no major issues. Check Engine light pops up every now and then (O2 sensor), and idles kinda low when warm (hangs around 400 rpm), and the 3.0 L Mopar engine loses its power significantly when A/C is on (Illinois summers are atrociously humid, so top stays up). MPG is around 23 hwy, not bad for an American V6.

i bought this car as my first car during high school. it had 163k miles on it. still looked decent. i put this car through hell! weekly trips to the beach, hours of driving. this car refused to die! after 2 months it started blowing serious smoke, head gasket. kept driving! just added oil every other week. the convertible was nice in SoCal., i definately drove the car with style. not too many out there, def. a head turner. if you have the chance to get one with lower miles get it, it will run forever, even on its dieing leg it can still be sold and continue on the road.
Fun car, cheap & reliable

One tranny problem when new. Head gasket at 100+ K miles. Parts are easy to get & cheap. Never stranded. Car still gets comments (total cream puff).
A Great Topless Ride!

This is a great car to own and drive! I purchased my LeBaron 3 1/2 years ago and have driven about 70,000 miles since I got it. It's always fun with the top down, and not bad with it up! The 3.0 L V-6 has plenty of power and starts easily. I have had a few problems: transmission rebuild (@149K miles; $1400), new starter ($185). Parts are easy to get.
fun car to drive anytime

I've had the car for four years now and love it. It gets great gas mileage. When its cold out the heat kicks on immediately. I haven't had any serious problems with the vehicle. top needs to be replaced, but its also almost ten years old. My only complaint is the AC leaks into the car underneath the glove compartment and the belt slips when you turn the ac on and accelerate. other than that the car is great. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a convertible to just drive anytime. It also gets great mileage in the city.
Great car

This has been an amazing car. It has Japanese (Mitsubishi) technology which might explain it's reliability The 3.0 V6 engine is "bulletproof". It still has the original top and exhaust system. I put on 1 set of pads on the front and the rear bonded are original. As a precaution 2 years ago I changed the spark plugs, timing belt and water pump for a very meager sum. All in all it ranks as the best car I ever had.

I bought my Lebaron 3 months ago strictly for the looks. Since owning it I have replaced a belt tensioner and a motor mount. The car is a blast to drive and never leaves me stranded but it does seem to be trouble prone. The top leaks really bad and the tranny leaks oil. Now I am having a problem with overheating when the AC is running. It only overheats when the AC is run and I have already replaced the Therostat. I may have to replace the radiator. I had to disconnect the Electric motor the raises and lowers the top because it overheats and I can't afford to replace it right now. With the top disconnected, it raises and lowers fine by hand.
Full of Leaks

Although this is a fun car to drive, once it hits 6 or 8 years old, plenty starts to go wrong. A bad transmission, leaky roof and windows, and unexplained stalling are the main problems. Watch out for the leaking especially, as it tends to worsen with age. It does drive pretty nice normally and maneuvers quite well.
I love it, even though it's not great

I bought my car my senior year in high school, even though my dad thought it was a bad idea. I loved it, until my transmission went out, then the oxygen sensor went bad, and so forth. It stalls once in a while, but it's cute, and that's all that mattered to me. It's fast, it's a convertible, I thought it was great. Today, I would not have bought it, and occasionally I regret my decision. I know owe more than what it's worth. So trying to get rid of it will be hard.

I have owned the car for nearly 9 years. The car still looks and drives like new. I have custom chrome wheels (Mercedes octagon style)Red with white top and white/grey interior. The car handles great with plenty of power. The only problems I have encountered: rear seat driver side electric window broke ($600.00) transmission went out at 65,000 miles ($2,500.00), Rear axle broke ($800.00)driver side transmission mount ($85.00)and I have a popping noise when I turn the wheel sharp and no one including the dealer can diagnose it.

Good performance in general but it leaks and had it in twice for fixing but still leaks. Further, the main belt has given me many problems, broke once, came off once and squeeked until I had the belt stablizer replaced twice. I have 55,000 miles on the car a and had the front ball joints replaced. The back seat if cramped for additional passengers.

LeBaron GTC's are fun, there is nothing like driving a convertible. I still think the styling is still sporty. We've had this car for 8 years as a "fun car", 5000 miles a year average. I love driving it, but watch out, it is under engineered and things tend to breakdown, even early in my purchase. If you want a fun car, this is one, if you want reliable, shop else where. (motor mounts, CV joints, rear sway bar, electric window broke)
It is a fine ride

I Got this car from a passed on relative. It had 70,000 miles on it. So far i put 1,000 miles on it and have replaced the radiator, two rear tires, and the sound system. The only problems i have had with the car are that the back windows don't go down and the engine has idled once. As a whole this car is easy to work on. The interior in my car is red and has a nice sleek design. This car accelerates pretty well and is a fun enjoyable ride with the top down. It would be nice not to have to worry about engine problems. I think this is a good car for any one who wants more bang for there buck.
great little convertible

Car is solid and heavy, so always felt safe even with the top down. Not that fast off the line, but it would cruise at highway + speeds with no problem. It was reliable, though changing spark plugs on the cylinder bank towards the firewall was a real challenge. Had to be careful putting anything in the boot, as it could crack the rear glass window when you put the top down. The car lasted until a big stretch limo crossed the road and t-boned me on the drivers side. Other than my airbags deploying, I was fine. That was a very sad day. Miss that car.

It was a great car when it was new. I am a little bitter. I have done every scheduled maintenance, and taken great care of this car. I am now having some major problems with it. I don't think that I should be having this many problems with a car that only has 103000 miles on it. I have friends with 150000 on their cars that run fine. I wouldn't buy another one. I also wouldn't buy a Chrysler again.
Mine's been great!

This car has been a BLAST! Only bought it 'cause the price was really cheap due to needing tranny repair. I still have less than 3 grand in it and I've put 60,000 miles on it in less than a year. It was garage kept by a retired lady who took REALLY good care of it so my original top looks brand new, and doesn't leak. Overall, this has been a wonderful, fun, and extremely econonical ride--I hve no complaints!
Ooooh Chrysler, why do you hate me?

I was apprehensive but we had no other option, as it was cheap and we made payments. I have owned 10 vehicles and this was the worst. The design is terrible for a 94'(inside and out), it's like they designed it then never actually sat in the car to realize all the bad ideas they had. It gave us transmission trouble on a rebuilt trans (rebuilt at 80k miles note), and the cooling system was always a problem. The torque/hp is all based at lower rpm so good luck passing. This car was not designed with snow in mind, chains slap the suspension because of the clearance, I have put chains on many, many cars with no problems as I live in the mountains. The handling is very poor. Etc.
A fun little car but not reliable

Purchased this car off a guy on Craigslist in the spring of 2021. I wasn't expecting much for $1,500 cash. It had about 154,000 kilometers on the odometer at the time. I invested a little extra money to get it road worthy for the summer. Basically I bought this as a fun summer ride during the COVID era. In the end, it barely made it through the summer. Car stalled on me on 2 different occasions and left me stranded the first time. I may have clocked an extra 1,000 kilometers on the engine but not much more than that. Investing any extra $$$ is a lost cause at this point as it is unclear if repairs will fix any of the real issues causing mechanical failure. Car was fun while it was running. As I am writing this review, I am looking at donating to a charity since there is very little chance I will get any of my money back. Car is super fun and turns heads but is not what I would call reliable.
