I was 13 when this car was made. My aunt had a '86 champagne one with dark wine color leather interior and the little gills on the fenders. I know they are just K cars, but I have Always liked them Chrysler always had beautiful interiors, and the butter soft tufted leather seats were soo comfortable. The digital dash was cool, and the power buttons had a nice feel to them. They are just so comfy to be in, and just the right size. Congrats!

I was 7. I didn't appreciate these cars as a kid because we had a brand new Camry. But these old Chryslers are amazing now!!! Wish I had at least one.

@@thewiseguy3529they are still out there. Just gotta look.

Oh nice! My uncle had a 1993 New Yorker with padded landau roof and v6 engine. The car was so stately and elegant looking and the ride with its thickly cushioned seats was a dream. It really makes me sad that beautiful and luxurious 4 door sedans and the once prestigious Chrysler name, have all but disappeared.

It is crazy the car fads go. There were some darn fine New Yorkers.

Silly moderator, wish we could see more of this nice vehicle.

You never know it might make another appearance on the channel.

I worked on a car just like that in 2017 in Northfield Vermont for a guy named Richard L, the positive wire from the battery to the starter would not make a secure connection so I used a highly conductive metal washer and a 3/4 inch drive ratchet and that worked

Pretty car. I love how it talks about warnings and reminders. A friend of mine had an 88; K-car, but it was a cheaper model than the New Yorker, but it did the same "talking." Your dogs are beautiful; please have someone watch them the next time you back a car out!

I promise that the dogs are seasoned shop dogs and stay stay safely away from moving vehicles, and my wife was there watching the dogs while I backed the car. She won't allow anything to happen to her spoiled pets. The fur babies appreciate you looking out for them. They make random appearances in several of my videos.

Came for the New Yorker, stayed for Beatrice!!!!

Our girl Beatrice is a shop staple. She makes frequent guest appearances in my videos. She likes to "help" me out.

You are so funny😅

Neat car. I had an 84 5th Avenue with the same seats.

Probably the best part of the whole car is those seats!

For some of us it sure is!

My baby sitter had a black on black 86. I believe she won that car in a contest.

I had to pay for this one, but can you imagine winning a car in a contest!!! That's a dream for sure.

I still think the talking feature would be helpful in modern times because we are so distracted

Get a turbo 2 swap and put it in the 12's. Fast with class.

Very nice 😊

Agreed!

Your engine oil pressure is low, prompt service is required.

2:00 There's something very familiar about all this....!

So a couple of things not accurate about what you said . First the 2.2 turbo was rated at 146 horse power which was really good for the time and second these cars never came with air ride so if the air ride still works on this car that's amazing. According to the factory brochure the car could have come with gas filled struts/shock absorbers and with the sport handling ( recommended with 2.2L turbo) included gas filled struts/ shock absorbers, firm feel quick ratio steering. You could also get electronic height control rear load leveling. But no where in the dealer brochure does it say anything about air ride. I would also say that the turbos often went bad on the 2.2 turbo engines so it's better to have the standard 2.5L EFI it was more reliable and gave you 101 horse power which was ample for those cars. I had a 1987 Plymouth Caravelle with the 2.5L which was the same size car and same platform for that matter and it got ample power out of that engine.

I had an 84 LeBaron and I always got so many compliments and that thing was 10 years old already when I bought it. That 87 u got still looks better than most cars today.

Chrysler Le Barron was a K car. Shared the same platform as the Plymouth Reliant and those small cars. The LeBaron was wanna be New Yorker

Style wise, one of the most hodgepodge designs for an automobile ever. Nothing looks like it belongs together ! From the roof line to the awful bumpers. What a mess !

They were nice until they started using the garbage K-Car unibody. Ruined the whole line.

An over rated K-Car what sad example of a Chrysler Product
