This is the best car I've ever owned. I bought it new with 2 miles on it in March of 2001 and have never had any major mechanical problems with it. Very comfortable and stylish, plus great for a family car. 200 hp performs very well in a heavy convertible, plus >30 highway mileage. City mileage suffers some, but still >20 even on the bad days. I bought this car because the 2001 was the first year to offer the 2.7l V6 and better styling than the previous Sebrings.
Good for a non-sport enthusiast

Overall, it's been a good ride. I had 2000 JXI which I was actually MORE happy with than this one. However, it was wrecked. I've had very rough idle engine problems since 12k miles. Dealer claims to have finally fixed it on the 3rd visit. But, still runs rough from time to time. Very impressive mileage for a v-6 in such a big car. I get 30-31 on highway with non-ethanol gas with speeds less than 73. After 73, mileage really deteriorates. (Just imagine if I didn't have that rough idle?) I would NOT buy another. However, would buy a used 1999 or 2000 JXI if the price was right.

My first convertible, and a great one at that. Power top was perfect and never had problems with it working. Replaced top seal when I purchased it ($800), replaced rotors (on all my Chryslers) every 20k miles. Brakes were not strong. Engine began to smoke at about 45k, and mechanics said it was a goner. NOT a good investment. Engine is a bad one (2.7L V6). Loved the car and top down driving and very comfortable, with all the nice options. Peppy to drive and smooth on hwy. Can't recommend because of engines and overall long-term quality issues.
Still love it

I have had my car for 2 years and 5 months and I still love it. Overall I have been very satisfied with my car. I had to have the stereo replaced when the car was a year old, but the dealer was fast and courteous about replacing it. The only things I have a problem with is the cupholder location, (I accidentally turn the cd player on when I use the cupholder!) And the front seats are hard to move for people getting in and out of the back seat. Other than that I still love it 2 years later!
Enjoyable Ride

Fun ride with decent gas milage. I've driven other LXi rental convertables and have seen a difference on performance. Some, like mine, have a lag when stepping on the gas and accelerating (which is critical for the split second pass). Once it does kick in, there is a jerk and quick acceleration. Sound system is great, seating room is great, trunk space is good (better than most convertables), love the car design and that you can be moving and still open/close the top. I have had the car for two years. I have had the window motor, the electrical light panel controler, and wheel bearings replaced at 36,000 miles.
