The only remaining “Springtime Edition” 1955 Imperial Newport Coupe
In the Spring and Summer of 1955, Imperial offered a special “Springtime” color combination of a Sunburst
Yellow body with a Platinum top. Very few of these were built and, according to the records of the Walter P.
Chrysler Club and the Imperial Club, this is the only one remaining.
This Imperial was built on July 19, 1955 and is one of only 3,418 Imperial Newport Coupes built. It’s equipped
with power windows, power seats, Town & Country radio with rear speaker, and rare factory air conditioning. The
fresh air scoops for the A/C are mounted on top of the rear fenders and the A/C evaporator and blower are located
in the trunk.
The 1955 Imperial, advertised as the “Flagship of the Forward Look” and as “The Finest Car America Has yet
Produced”, was the first Imperial completely designed by Virgil Exner, Styling Director of Chrysler Corporation.
It was also the first Imperial built on its own dedicated production facility within the new Imperial Division of
the Chrysler Corporation.
Chrysler Historical Services provided us with the Production Record (see picture) certifying that this Imperial was
delivered with the stated options and was one of the original Sunburst Yellow body with a Platinum top
“Springtime” cars.

What the Chrysler 200 will probably look like in convertible form
Thu, 16 Jan 2014Since 1996, Chrysler has offered a convertible version of its Sebring and 200. As this seems very unlikely to change, it's safe to assume that a new 200 Convertible is in the works following the unveiling of the radically redesigned sedan. What it will look like, though, remains an open question.
Traditionally, the only major styling differences between the Sebring/200 Convertible and the sedan were found above the beltline. It's likely a 2016 200 Convertible would follow a similar philosophy, especially considering the dashing good looks of the redesigned sedan.
Artist Theophilus Chin has a similar idea, as shown in a pair of renderings he's released. Using a few of the stock photos from the 200 Sedan's reveal, Chin has given us our first glimpse of what a 200 Convertible could looks like. It's sharp, retaining the good looks of the sedan. The windshield looks like it's been swept back further, and obviously, there are a pair of doors missing. Other than that, it's the same attractive car that debuted at Detroit.
IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013
Wed, 02 Jan 2013The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.
