One of the few cars that I could 'sit behind myself' in with the driver?s seat all the way back (I'm 6'4"). Personally, l never had an issue with the oil sludge, but it?s something to keep in mind.

The water pump fix will run you around $2000+ because of the dumb design of it and half the engine needing to be taken apart. The 2.7 liter engine is known for 2 major issues, oil sludge build up if the oil isn't changed regularly and the water pump that when it goes will leak anti-freeze into the engine and must be fixed immediately. It had very lackluster power for accelerating from a dead stop or any aggressive passing but fine for normal day to day surface street driving. And I wish I still had this car! I had the LX model with the 2.7 liter engine. Had it until there were 158000 miles on it. I got this car with 44000 miles on the odometer. Because the small back window is positioned behind a high parcel shelf, rear visibility could be a problem for shorter drivers. The seats have short bottoms and are on the firm side, but both the front and rear promise plenty of space to stretch out. The Concordes ride doesnt quite rank as gentle, but it is smooth on most pavement surfaces. The 250-hp Limited should be even more confident when passing and merging.

But beyond its striking appearance lies a roomy and functional sedan that rides pleasantly, is easy and enjoyable to drive, and feels more nimble than a lot of big cars.Įven before the LXi engine was enlarged to 3.5 liters, it delivered spirited acceleration unlike the 2.7-liter V-6 in the LX, which doesnt quite pack the muscle to propel a car of this size with full force. Antilock brakes and low-speed traction control are standard on the Limited and optional on the LXi.Įver since the second-generation Concorde debuted for the 1998 model year, its been known for eye-catching styling. Side-impact airbags for the front seats are optional on all models. Each engine works with a four-speed-automatic transmission. The LXi gets a 234-hp, 3.5-liter V-6, and the Limiteds V-6 is rated at 250 hp. Because of its higher roofline, backseat passengers get slightly more headroom in the Concorde, but a narrow rear window makes parking and lane changing a trifle trickier.Ī 200-horsepower, 2.7-liter V-6 engine goes into the Concorde LX. Like the Intrepid, Chryslers Concorde has large doors, a spacious interior and a roomy trunk. Steering-wheel stereo controls are included with the optional Infinity sound systems. A 50/50-split front bench that allows for six-passenger seating instead of the standard five is offered as optional equipment. The tires on the LX and LXi are 16-inchers, while 17-inchers go on the Limited.įront bucket seats are standard in both the base LX sedan and the more costly LXi and Limited models. Its rear styling is also different because it features a back window that is smaller than the one in the Intrepid. A large, oval-shaped crosshatch grille and wraparound headlights appear at the front of the Chrysler model. The low nose/high deck profile is similar to that of the Intrepid, but the Concorde has its own look. The warranty covers engines, transmissions, transfer cases and axles. Starting in July 2002, all Chrysler vehicles gained a new 7-year/70,000-mile powertrain warranty, which is transferable to subsequent owners. All of these sedans are expected to get new designs for the 2004 model year, and they may be available with rear-wheel drive.

The Concorde is built on the same platform as the Dodge Intrepid, and its related to the sporty 300M, which has different styling and is shorter overall. In fact, all Concordes gained some of the LHSs styling features for 2002. A Concorde Limited joined the lineup in 2002, replacing the old LHS. Three new body colors are available, and an available in-dash six-CD changer replaces the prior four-CD unit. Little has changed for the 2003 model year on Chryslers full-size, front-wheel-drive Concorde sedan.
