24k Miles, Not Bad: 1990 Chrysler Imperial


Dr Henry Jekyll: I love this next car, it is so well preserved for a Chrysler Imperial. Mr Ed Hyde: Ugg, 24k miles. Frankly I’m shocked that anyone could stand this miserable pile of Chrysler K-Platform junk for 24 miles, much less 24,000. Dr Jekyll; Hold up there old chap, this car has a wicked sweet chrome grill and functioning pop-up headlights, and the burgundy interior is as delightful as a trip down Dean Street in London. Mr Hyde: You must be mad, somebody paid the equivalent of $50k in today’s money for this pile of slushbox shifted 147 horsepower V6 garbage and I’d pay that much to NOT drive it. Find this 1990 Chrysler Imperial offered for $4,995 in Fairfield, CA via craigslist. Tip from FuelTruck.

Nice to see somebody besides me remembers what Mr. Hyde’s first name is. I kind of thing Mr. Hyde would either want to use this for a demolition derby or go street racing with an SRT4 swap.
“Beautiful classic” the ad says.
Wrong on both counts.
Somebody throttle Dr.Jekyll please.
This is one of the few cars that may be improved by turning it into a donk.
