Summary

You are bidding on a 1994 Chrysler Concorde. It has been priced low with no reserve, in other words, it's priced to move! The vehicle was purchased used by my father in 2005 (I believe he was the second owner). It has been in our family ever since.  

The the car was used as a daily driver until the Fall of 2013, when my brother upgraded to a more fuel-efficient vehicle with lower miles.  It has been a good car for our family, so bid now and make it a good car for yours!

My policy when selling is to be as honest as possible, so the buyer knows exactly what is being purchased. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions. 

With over 209,000 miles on a 20 year-old vehicle, a share of mechanical/cosmetic issues is not to be unexpected. Please consult the abbreviated list below, and read on for further details (on issues with asterisks).

Details

*This problem has only occurred since we parked the vehicle last Fall (after my brother upgraded vehicles). When he was driving it daily it did not have any problems starting. Once jump started, the car will run, however, the battery is getting old and there is visible corrosion, which leads us to believe it may need to be replaced. 

**This has been the largest issue with the car. At idle, it runs roughly and occasionally dies. It never left my brother stranded (it would start again after one or two tries). However, it was a bit of an inconvenience, especially with city driving.  It also occasionally runs roughly while accelerating up to 40-50 MPH, then starts to smooth out at highway speeds. This has been an intermittent issue over the last 12 months or so. Basically, it runs roughly at times, smoothly at others.  Perhaps this is a fuel delivery issue?  We have not had this problem looked into, since the car is getting up there in years, and it still did a good job of taking my brother where he needed to go. 

***The check engine light is mostly likely the result of the aforementioned problems with the car running roughly. The ABS light is more of a mystery. We are not sure what is wrong. The car tends to brake a bit hard, although effectively. As mentioned, it has new-er pads and rotors, so perhaps the problem is with the ABS?

****This has not been a major issue, at least not enough to cause significant tire wear or cause other alignment issues.  

Again I would like to state that I've been as honest as possible in describing this vehicle.  Any omission of problems/defects is purely accidental. Again, if you have any questions, contact me and I will answer them to the best of my knowledge. 

Warranty

This car is sold AS IS, WHERE IS, with no warranty. 

Purchase/Pick Up Information

The payment will be cash only, paid in full at the time of pickup.

Delivery is not available for this car; it is available by pickup only. Pickup shall take place within 14 days of sale. Please contact me to arrange details.



Thank you for your interest and happy bidding! Thanks for supporting the MS Society!

Fiat Chrysler chief still says EVs can't make money

Sun, Jun 12 2016

Add Sergio Marchionne's insistence that it's impossible to make money on electric vehicle production to death and taxes among things we can all count on. The Fiat Chrysler Automobiles CEO, speaking in an interview with UK's Car Magazine, implied that Tesla Motors was "the iPhone of cars." The metaphor may have been mixed, as iPhones make plenty of cash for Apple, whereas Tesla has never made an annual profit from its electric vehicles. But the implication was that automakers should stick to what they know, and they don't know smartphones. Forget any upcoming presidential debates, we're waiting for one between Marchionne and Tesla chief Elon Musk. As for the development of autonomous-driving features? Those are another story, says Marchionne, and an area where he's far more in line with Musk. That's because the technology required to make a car safely accelerate, brake, and steer on its own is far cheaper than making a car with an electric drivetrain that offers similar range and performance to a car with an internal combustion engine, he says. As opposed to electrification, Fiat Chrysler has been going the route of modifying conventional powertrains via wringing out more power out of progressively smaller engines, and mating them with eight- and nine-speed transmissions. As for EVs, credit Marchionne for his consistency. Fiat Chrysler has been selling the Fiat 500e since 2013. That year, Wards Auto named the 500e motor to its 10 Best Engines list, while the 500e won Road & Track's 2013 award for best electric car. Still, Marchionne has long said that Fiat only makes the vehicle for to satisfy zero-emissions vehicle mandates in California, and that the company loses as much as $10,000 for every 500e that it sells.

Bob Dylan to star in Chrysler Super Bowl spot [w/videos]

Thu, 30 Jan 2014

Billboard reports that Bob Dylan will be working with Chrysler again, this time starring in a Super Bowl ad expected to showcase the company's new 200 sedan. The rock icon first tied up with the Chrysler Group late last year when a commercial for the new 2014 Jeep Cherokee used Dylan's unreleased cover of Blind Willie Johnson's "Motherless Children" for its soundtrack.
The last big-game commercial for the 200 used Eminem in 2011 to introduce us to the outgoing 200 and the tagline-turned-mini-movement, "Imported from Detroit." Since then, Clint Eastwood, Berry Gordy, Jr., and America's farmers have taken turns impressing us with Chrysler Group's wares. It isn't yet known what song will be used for the spot. Speaking of the coming ad, company CEO Sergio Marchionne said, "Someone made the comment to me that I had the right commercial in 2011 and the wrong car. I think we now have hopefully the right commercial and the right car."
It's not Dylan's first outing with a carmaker, having starred in a spot to promote the Cadillac Escalade in 2007. Nor will it be the only Dylan music we get during the Super Bowl, the singer having licensed a track that's used in a one-minute commercial for Chobani Greek yogurt.

2015 Chrysler 200 gets 36 mpg with Tigershark four-cylinder

Thu, 27 Mar 2014

Chrysler has come out with the official fuel economy information on the new 200 following the info that was leaked from the EPA earlier this week. It turns out that our initial report of 18 miles per gallon in the city and 29 mpg on the highway for the all-wheel-drive V6 was correct.
What we didn't know at the time, though, was what sort of economy the 200's other powertrain options managed. Outfitted with the 2.4-liter four-pot, Chrysler is promising 23 mpg in the city and 36 mpg on the highway, with a combined rating of 28 mpg. Those figures are fairly impressive; besting figures of the 2.5-liter Ford Fusion and tying the 1.5-liter, EcoBoost, non-start-stop model. It's also beats the four-cylinder Toyota Camry's 35-mpg highway figure while tying its combined efficiency.
Stepping up to the 295-horsepower Pentastar V6 pushes the economy down to 19 mpg in the city, while the highway figure is a respectable 32 mpg for the front-driver. The combined rating for the FWD V6 is 23 mpg. Those figures can't quite match the 270-horsepower 2.0-liter, EcoBoost four of the Fusion, which nets 22 city and 33 highway. In fact, the V6 200 has trouble besting even the 3.5-liter V6 of the Camry, which returns 21 mpg city and 31 mpg highway. Again, though, the 200 is noticeably more powerful.
