Chrysler in a nutshell
The Chrysler name has signified dignity and quality since your Daddy was just a glimmer in your Grandma’s eye. Simple to work on and familiar to just about any mechanic; in fact the most difficult thing you will find on this car is the Chrysler radio install, which took me about five hours last weekend. But that could be just because I didn’t know what in the heck I was doing! Today much of the manufacturing is headed by Daimler Chrysler, but the quality to its original name still stands proud, whether you reside in Chrysler USA or Chrysler Canada.
Inside every Chrysler building you will always find three things: Quality, integrity, and a showroom full of some of the most classic designed vehicles you will find anywhere. There are so many Chrysler cars to choose from (not to mention the Chrysler parts and accessories), how does one ever choose which Chrysler is right for them. Well, lets sort through a heaping handful of Chryslers (past and present), and see if we can’t narrow it down a little bit for you.
Let us kick things off with the award winning Chrysler 300C, which was named one of Car and Drivers 10 best full-sized sedans for 2006. Now this would make the fourth time in a row that the Chrysler 300 has achieved this award; not too shabby. Prior to the 300C preceded the Chrysler 300M, which was a beautifully engineered vehicle back in 2001, but I must say the M is much more refined and agile when you take it to the road.
Since 1993 the Chrysler Concorde has had a strong following of loyal customers who seem to approve of its roomy interior and classy aerodynamic styling. The Concorde is definitely considered a premium luxury sedan by all definitions, but the smooth handling and powerful engine are the most fun part of owning one. What was that? Did you say that the 300C and Concorde was just not big and luxurious enough for you? Well then you are going to have to wait for the 2008 Chrysler Imperial to satiate that appetite.
The Chrysler Imperial, why only a concept right now, could quite frankly be called the Titanic of luxury sedans. At 17 inches longer and six inches taller than the 300C, and it is about as close as you will ever get to a Rolls Royce at its price range. This production flagship will clearly set a new benchmark for affordable luxury, and with a little help from Chrysler financial; maybe now we can at last know how the other half lives.
Moving on over to the more sporty side of things we find the Chrysler Sebring. This roomy, luxurious, European styled sedan proves that you can have everything in a sports car and still be able to fit a full sized family between the doors comfortably. Now if the Sebring does not quite have enough sport feel for you, then perhaps you should step up to the Chrysler Crossfire, which is Chrysler’s answer to the mid-sized mid-aged crisis. With plenty of power, style, class, and only enough room for you and your suitcase; the Crossfire promises you one thing. That wherever you are going; people will definitely notice when you get there!
Last but certainly not least is Chrysler’s answer to the SUV craze in America. Built with “step across” height to give riders the comfort of neither climbing up nor down to get in, the Pacifica would make a comfortable vehicle for any sized passengers. The Pacifica manages to combine practicality with great handling, plus add in the space of a low roofed minivan for convenient city driving and parking. Chrysler, who could ask for anything more!
