A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Owners filed 161 complaints with NHTSA, most often about steering, engine and engine cooling and service brakes; have those parts checked.
Engine and fuel
The 3.3L 6-cylinder with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 35 litres, from its 11.8 L/100 km rating. For 1,000 km, budget about $182.90 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,350 a year for 15,000 miles.
What the Concorde is like
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. Its 538 litres of luggage space fit bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Is it right for your trip?
It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
Drive it on your own roads
Rent the Concorde first, and buy only if it fits your life. A test week in the Concorde tells you more than any review. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.
Money matters
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. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $18.29 in fuel.
Year and trim
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Within the 1996 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
