Buying the 1997 Chrysler Concorde

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 1997 Chrysler Concorde for sale by us right now. Before buying the 1997 Chrysler Concorde, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

What to check on the Concorde

Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Owners filed 134 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine and engine cooling, service brakes and electrical system; have those parts checked. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

Engine and fuel

The 3.3L 6-cylinder with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

By the EPA's combined rating of 11.8 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 35 litres. That works out to about $18.29 per 100 km at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,350 a year for 15,000 miles.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

The Concorde in everyday use

As a large sedan, it is easy to drive and park in the city. EPA lists 481 litres of luggage space, enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.

Drive it on your own roads

If the Concorde is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. A test week in the Concorde tells you more than any review.

Picking a year and a trim

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.

Running costs

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$3,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.

Ready when you are

A rental request is free; the offer shows the full price.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 1997 Chrysler Concorde from us first.
