The 1997 Chrysler Stratus for buyers

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 1997 Chrysler Stratus; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. For anyone shopping for the 1997 Chrysler Stratus, here are the facts that matter.

Before you sign for the Stratus

Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.

Reading the spec sheet

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Who rents the Stratus

It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

How big it is

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk.

Try before you buy

Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.

Narrowing it down

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.

Money matters

A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.

Questions first?

Ask about renting first, and buy with a clear head.

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 Stratus from us first.
