Has anybody ever owned or owns....

A Chrysler Lebaron? There's a 92 Lebaron for sale down the road from me and my gf wants it bad, 'cause she's moving cities and she doesnt want to transfer skools, and her stepmom wont take her to skool unless we pay her $40 a week for gas.... and thats not happening. I just wanted to know if they were good reliable cars or not. Never really heard anything bad about Chryslers and i've seen the reliability ratings and its 4 out of 5 with some minor engine problems. The lady is selling it for $1000 and its got 115K on it.

I used to drive a Dodge shadow, it's basically the same car (shares the same platform - p-body). It was a pretty stout car, had no balls whatsoever at 93 hp, but I got like 150k miles out of it easily with just basic maintenance. The car would still be on the road today too if my brother had taken better care of it. I may fix it over the summer and use it as a beater. So for what it's worth, mine held up quite well.

IF it starts the first time you turn the key, and it's only 1000 bucks, that alone seems like a good enough reason to buy it.

I haven't owned one, a buddy did back in high school (6yrs ago) he nevered had problems out of it. But it's now a 13 year old car. Just kind of depends how it was maintained. You might want to see if you can have it inspected before you buy it.

Same here... '90 Plymouth Sundance was my first car. Gutless as hell... 0-60 in 17 seconds (and I'm not exagerating). It needed an enigne rebuild at 130k, and after that I passed it down to my sister and she drove it another 30k before selling it. It never needed a bit of work done to it except the engine.

Now I'm wishing I would have bought it back from my sister as a beater.

i had one it was a POS. it was a 89 vert with 200+ on it. so granted it was beat to ****. also had a omni motor that ran on 2.5 cylinders. comp tested it, 2 cylinders had less than 75lbs compression. Biggest nightmare of a car ever.

Find out more about it. The little Dodge 4bangers can really handle some power, and they are pretty reliable.

my grandpa has a lebaron convertable, and my girlfriend's dad has a coupe. theyre both still running, and they dont spend all that much time maintaining them.
