Buying the 1997 Chrysler Concorde
No 1997 Chrysler Concorde is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Here is the 1997 Chrysler Concorde for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.
What to check on the Concorde
Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
What the figures tell you
The 3.3L 6-cylinder does the work, through a 4-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
A combined rating of 11.8 L/100 km works out to about 35 litres per 300 km. Expect 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.
Living with the Concorde
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. At 481 litres, the trunk fits a family's bags for a long weekend.
Who rents the Concorde
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.
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. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Concorde answers the big questions. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.
The cost of driving it
The EPA estimates US$3,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $18.29 in fuel.
Year and trim
Within the 1997 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
