Bought a 1996 LHS used in 2007 w/ 102,000 miles. Drove it until 2011, it had 230,000 miles on it when I sold it. Never a problem with the electronics, engine or trans. It was one of the best cars I've ever had.

These 90s Chrysler cars (known as cab forward designs) remind me of my grandparents who had a ‘96 Concorde. BTW, KCTS9 (the station mentioned here) is my hometown PBS station, which makes me proud!

I had one of these in college. These cars were amazing. They were fast and drove oh so smooth. And talk about comfort - I miss it!

joe beastyg yeah, these cars do get up when you floor it down.. My cousin used to have one back in 2000/2001, & and I was very impressed with the takeoff.. Miss those days!!!! Ahh.. So much fun.

I didn't think they would take it through the slalom but it did pretty damn well for such a big car!

"Chrysler says they took inspiration from Bugatti, we think it looks more like an Oldsmobile" 😂😂😂

When Chrysler still made decent cars. I miss those times.

Just watched a MotorWeek review for the 83 Chryslers and these of 1993 were light-years ahead. It is unfortunate that what is left of Chrysler today or what is referred to as Dodge, are very uninspired designs.

my grandmother used to have a 95 concord. it was a very nice car. i remember it riding very smooth and quiet. it performed very good for its size, not only that it had very good build quality and feel to it, unlike many chrysler products. most of the lh cars were good vehicles especially the intrepid concord lhs and neon, but not the sebring

Owned a 96 my mom loved it so much I bought her a 97,I miss those cars so bad.

Paid $200.00 for my 97 LHS Last of this body style, Love the car!!!!! starting to rust under the plastics on the rockers but still looks great and drives AWESOME!!! and pretty quick to for a big car.

i had a '95 concorde, 3.3L that was a really decent car! the 3.5L was a great engine..took the competition about 20 yrs to catch up.

The all-new 1990 Nissan 300ZX V6 engine was strikingly similar in power & multi-valve configuration. Chrysler did a good job, but wasn't that advanced after all. I owned both new.

These were some of the best riding cars of the day. The only issue They had was the water pumps failing around 30-40k miles. Otherwise they were solid dependable cars! Fairly quick for a heavy V-6. The seats were amazing. The car was a way nicer ride than either ford or GM had at the time, excluding the crown Vic cars.

I drive a 1995 Dodge intrepid on twisty country roads. The car is a marvel of superd handling, and it's ability to take corners at high speed amaze and delight me at every curve! Yes the car sat for 6 or so years before being put back on the road, but with 169,000 miles the car uses no oil, and the transmission is always in the right gear. I know chrysler car's are famous for being, either good or bad. I guess i got a good one. so there!

Cool stuff loved seeing this stuff Merry belated Christmas and Happy New year to all

I bought a used '96 LHS back in 2000. It was a nice car except it started falling apart around 80,000 miles. I liked the design and performance but the overall reliability was poor.

I had one too. Biggest mistake ever. At around 60k miles, the engine seals started leaking. Fuel rail started leaking too. In and out of the dealership for so many problems. I was so sick of this POS, I wanted to set it on fire. That was the last time I bought a Chrysler product. I think Chrysler makes it a point to buy inferior vendor parts for their cars and trucks. Buyer beware.

Very nostalgic about this intro.

i love to riding this car

I have one and love it a 1996

I had a 1993 LHS. Great ride, incredible room esp in the back seat. Problems were the A/C system that I had to have worked on twice right after warranty expired, and bad front ball joints after about 50,000 miles. Never had those kind of problems in any other car, and I’m not a hot rod type driver.

This is my first car have a 94 and would buy another one if i had to love it

I have a 88 Lebaron coupe and the last year they made them these wheels came on the GTC trim. I saw a picture in a brochure of a black GTC with these 16" rims and it looked awesome. As far as cleaning it does seem like a lot of nooks to get into but I have the 'pizza' rims now and those 19 holes are a bitch to clean because they are unpolished aluminum in the holes and you have to scour each hole with a scratch pad with 2 fingers. 76 total holes of hell...

Audio & video are WAY out of sync.

Disappointed Chrysler abandoned the rear drive V8 sedan market while Ford and GM stuck with them. Front wheel drive V6 sedans are so bland.

I had one brand-new back then. Gorgeous car; drove beautifully, dumb name. They should've called it, "Newport" , a name from the past. As far as names go, Dodge should've called their current Challenger GT, a "Challenger Rallye"; retro name from the past. American Cars called "GT" typically coincide as Mustangs; another dumb choice.

It is a very sporty car to drive, lol ! Have you ever driven one, you stupid bitch? I bet not .

The LHS wasn't all that faster than the 3.8 ltr v6 Imperial and New yorker fifth avenue it replaced. The only real difference was that the LHS and New Yorker handled better and had more trunk room. Not saying a whole lot for a clean sheet design?

Although these were drastic improvements over the Chrysler products they replaced which doesn't say much BTW they were not proven to be very reliable. I can't remember the last time I saw an LHS or a Chrysler New Yorker. Even ones with rims and drivers with gold teeth couldn't even pick these up from the local buy here pay here lots anymore.
