The Chrysler LeBaron, also known as the Imperial LeBaron, is a line of automobiles built by Chrysler from 1931 to 1941 and from 1955 to 1995. The model was introduced in 1931, with a body manufactured by LeBaron, and competed with other luxury cars of the era such as Lincoln and Packard. After purchasing LeBaron with its parent Briggs Manufacturing Company, Chrysler introduced the luxury make Imperial in 1955, and sold automobiles under the name Imperial LeBaron until 1975. Chrysler discontinued the Imperial brand in 1975, and reintroduced the Chrysler LeBaron in 1977 to what was then Chrysler's lowest priced model.

The "LeBaron" name has since been applied to five different cars built by the Chrysler Division:

  • 1977–1981 M-body (mid-size) LeBaron sedan, coupe, and wagon
  • 1982–1988 K-body (mid-size) LeBaron sedan, coupe, convertible, and wagon
  • 1985–1989 H-body (mid-size) LeBaron GTS hatchback
  • 1987–1995 J-body (personal luxury) LeBaron coupe and convertible
  • 1990–1994 AA-body (mid-size) LeBaron sedan

The last Chrysler LeBaron was produced in 1995, to be replaced with the Cirrus and Sebring. The LeBaron was one of Chrysler's longest running brands.

Negative 1991 Chrysler Lebaron car reviews

  1. Derek Marvin 2024-11-24

    Hi there! I hope you're doing well. I wanted to share my experience with my LeBaron. I've had it for 5 years now and it's been a great ride. The V6 EFI provides plenty of acceleration power and I'm happy to report that I get 26 mpg with 6 cylinders. It's a real smooth ride at highway speeds. When I purchased it, my LeBaron was 9 years old and had 68K miles. Since then, I've put on 90K miles. While I've had some issues with the air conditioning units, I've found that to be a common problem with LeBarons. I've gone through 2 units, but I've spoken to three separate auto mechanics who have given me some great advice on how to keep it running smoothly. I've also noticed that my LeBaron burns a quart of oil per week, but my mechanic assures me that this may just be an issue with my car since it now has 150K miles. Overall, I'm really happy with my LeBaron and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable ride.

  2. Marty Veum 2024-08-13

    I have owned my LeBaron for just under a year. Besides normal wear and tear, it has been a really fun car to drive. I think that the seats are really comfortable and it handles really well in all weather conditions. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who likes a good car!

  3. Harvey Kuhn 2024-04-28

    Congratulations on your purchase! It's always exciting to find a great deal on a car. Your 1990 Lebaron Convertible sounds like a real gem, with its dark blue color, blue interior, and black top. It's great to hear that it cleaned up so well and that you've only had to replace the rear left-hand power window motor. While it may not be the fastest car out there, it still sounds like a blast to drive. It's wonderful that you were able to pass it down to your son and are even considering getting another one for yourself. Thanks for sharing your experience with us!

  4. Davion Pacocha 2024-01-22

    I purchased this car in 2000 fresh out of high school and the first vehicle I bought with my own money. It had 120k on it when I bought it and it now has 150k. I have replaced so much of this car with the exception of the engine. I do however love the car and would never sell it. I am the second owner of it. My interior is flawless, the exterior looks like crap. it gets about 22 mpg and the a/c still blows cold r12.

  5. Taurean Brakus 2024-01-17

    You bought this car needing a head gasket, but you replaced that and the timing belt. A few months later, you did a complete tune-up and right now you need to flush the transmission. I think that once you do that, it will be just about as good as new. I believe it's pretty good for a four-cylinder and cheap transmission (no overdrive). They really should have had the four speeds with overdrive standard, but all in all, it's not a bad car.

Positive 1991 Chrysler Lebaron car reviews

  1. Hubert Rempel 2024-11-18

    Congratulations on your recent purchase of a 1990 LeBaron Sedan! This car is truly impressive with only 53K original miles. As someone who has never been a Chrysler guy, it's great to hear that this model has changed your thinking. I'm glad to hear that you fit comfortably in the car with the power seat adjusted, and that the interior is plush and convenient. The motor sounds like it has generous power with front wheel drive and decent fuel economy, averaging 21 M.P.G. The style of the car is also elegant with the Landau roof and Opera windows. Overall, it's wonderful to hear that you're so enthusiastic and ecstatic about your new car!

  2. Dorian Bechtelar 2024-11-15

    I bought this car from my mother for a dollar when she became legally blind in 2010. It's now 2021 and it still runs and drives! She even gave me the dollar back to get her McDonald's hamburger. :)

  3. Ezra Dickens 2024-10-18

    I just had to leave a review after reading some mediocre ones. I absolutely adore my Lebaron Convertible! The 2.5 Turbo is an amazing platform to work with. I've made some modifications to mine, including forged pistons, a new computer, exhaust, intake, cam, injectors, intercooler, and extra turbo boost. It's so much fun to drive and I've even managed to lay down over 40 feet of rubber with it! Even at freeway speeds, I can step on the gas and it still has plenty of power to give. It's a real sleeper with a base of 150 hp, but with bolt-on upgrades, you can easily add another 50. However, you'd better hurry because not many accessories are left from MOPAR. The coolest thing is that I have loads of power and I can still get 25 mpg if I drive nicely.

  4. Ernest Schimmel 2024-09-21

    I've got a 1990 Lebaron that currently has 230,000+ miles on it! This is a car that won't quit! It's comfortable, has pretty good gas mileage for its age, and it still looks good! It was passed down from my aunt, who'd received it from my grandparents, who bought it used. And for a 16-year-old car, it's pretty good. I love LeBarons!

  5. Augustus Murray 2024-09-08

    Your parents bought this car almost 14 years ago, and it still runs like the day they drove it home. The engine starts right up, and the V-6 still moves it along much better than the 2003 Mustang I recently rented. Although cosmetically the car could have been built a little better, all in all, it's a great car. I'm very pleased.
