This auction is for a red 1997 Chrysler Sebring JXi Convertible 2 door car. The car is in overall fair condition considering it's age, it runs and gets you where you want to go. I have had the vehicle in my posession for the last year and a half and have had no mechanical problems and I drive it daily. The car is not perfect however, it has a lot of cosmetic issues but the good news about that is that cosmetic issues can be fixed or hidden with a replacement cover. Mechanically the car seems alright, again I have not had any trouble. I have driven it out of town (300 miles away) and back and it loves the open road. In "stand still" heavy traffic sometimes I notice that the check engine light sometimes flickers on and off but it goes away. The car does not have any kind of overheating issues during the stand still heavy traffic which is a good thing, I am not too sure what causes that light to flicker on.

That is the overall general health of the car. Below I will pin point specs/issues that I see in the car that might interest a potential buyer:

Has power everything, this car was top of the line in it's time: power - windows/locks/mirrors/drivers seat/convertible drop top *all working condition*
2.5L V6 4 speed automatic engine
16 mpg city/24 mpg hwy with an overall combined 19 mpg hwy & city
Clear Texas title ready to transfer to you
Low miles!!!! Only 112,663
Bucket leather seats, however they are torn & stained, especially the driver seat but seat covers is an easy fix
Fog Lights
Keyless entry fob *works* (1), factory original key (1), factory original valet key (1)
Lighted entry system
Cruise control
Power brakes - they squeak at times especially after rain
Rear window defroster
16 Inch alloy wheels
Takes regular unleaded fuel (holds 15.8 gallons)
Tachometer & trip computer
4 wheel ABS
Driver and passender front airbags
Air Conditioning available but needs an A/C service done, not blowing cold air
Radio/CD player works. Infinity Audio system w/CD changer but I don't know if it works - factory radio has been replaced with a Pioneer CD player w/detachable face. Also XM radio was installed at one time, connections are there but you would need a new system installed
Floor carpeting is severely stained, would need detail deep cleaning
Leather trim steering wheel in rough condition, currently has a steering wheel cover over it
Spare "donut" tire with tire changing jack and attachments
Center light (under rearview mirror) on passenger side works but needs a replacement bulb, also light insert that holds it in has come loose
Trunk won't stay open on it's own, you need to hold it up by hand - probably needs a replacement spring
Angler on A/C center vent on passenger side is broke, you can't change the position that outcoming air is angled
Sun visors have torn & diminishing fabric from age
New battery recently replaced in DEC 2013
The outside of the vehicle is fair, it has some dings, nicks, scrapes, but no major damage. The heat here in Texas has taken a toll on the paint. The paint is worn in some areas from the heat especially on the back trunk area, I have taken pictures so you can see what I mean. It could use a gloss treatment to minimize the dryness appearance.
The tan convertible fabric top has a spot near the rear window edge where the fabric has slightly come unseamed

I have tried to cover everything as best as I can, personally looking at the vehicle would be optimal to best form your opinion. This vehicle is being sold "as is" and I am confident you will be happy with the car and that you will find it was a fair purchase from a reputable seller.

Shipment: I am open to whatever works best for you on getting it to you. You can pay to have it shipped to you (you would have to set all of that up yourself and payment for that is completely your responsibility). Also you can come get it from Austin, TX. Or if you live close enough we might be able to arrange a "meeting half way" point for a small shipment fee paid to me.

Payment: full payment is expected before taking delivery of the vehicle. Only cash or certified funds from your bank. If you are getting it financed, your bank will usually send you with certified funds to exchange for the vehicle.

Fiat shareholders green-light Chrysler merger, end of an Italian era

Fri, 01 Aug 2014

Fiat has just taken a major step away from its Italian heritage, as shareholders officially approved the company's merger with Chrysler. That move will lead to the formation of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV, a Dutch company based in Great Britain and listed on the New York Stock Exchange, according to Automotive News Europe.
The company captured the two-thirds majority at a special shareholders meeting, although there are still a few situations that could defeat the movement. According to ANE, roughly eight percent of shareholders opposed the merger, which is a group large enough to defeat the plan, should they all exercise their exit rights outlined in the merger conditions.
Meanwhile, Fiat Chairman John Elkann (pictured above, right, with CEO Sergio Marchionne and Ferrari Chairman Luca Cordero di Montezemolo), the great-great-grandson of Fiat founder Giovanni Agnelli, reaffirmed his family's commitment to the company beyond the merger. Exor, the Agnelli family's holding company, still maintains a 30-percent stake in Fiat.

Is Chrysler's 'America's Import' campaign outdated or offensive? [w/poll]

Tue, 04 Nov 2014

Chrysler launched its America's Import campaign with a splashy ad during the Super Bowl starring Bob Dylan and featuring a whole bunch of patriotic imagery that included Marilyn Monroe, James Dean, factory employees and, of course, the city of Detroit. Since then, the brand has followed the original spot with even more ads using the same tagline. Not everyone is pleased, it seems, including The Detroit Free Press auto critic Mark Phelan, who's fed up with the marketing. In an editorial for the newspaper, Phelan claims that it's insulting to the US auto industry and its workers.
"The phrase 'America's import,' with its suggestion that 'import' equals 'better,' feels terribly dated, a relic of the 1980s. It's the rhetorical equivalent of hanging a pastel-hued 'Miami Vice' poster on your office wall," writes Phelan in the piece. Also, since some of the brand's cars are made in Canada, the line isn't even entirely true, he claims. Phelan goes on to praise the company's earlier Imported from Detroit commercials for getting the right message across and showing pride in the city.
While "America's Import" might be the tagline for Chrysler's ads, it's not the whole message. Subsequent ads keep the hard-working, patriotic imagery from the original Super Bowl spot but put a bigger emphasis on the Chrysler 200 that the commercials are meant to sell.

Fiat Chrysler global HQ lands in London's ultra-posh West End

Thu, 18 Sep 2014

It seems Fiat is bent on bolstering its image as a global automaker, as word has leaked out that the Italian/American conglomerate has chosen to locate its global headquarters in a rather swanky neighborhood in London. According to Bloomberg, the rental location on St. James Street in London's West End is a 10-minute walk from Buckingham Palace, and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles will fill up three complete floors of an office building that also houses The Economist magazine.
As a neutral location between Italy and the United States, the London-based headquarters makes sense, though, at $277 per square foot, this area is said to be the most expensive office space in the world. There's no mention of what FCA has actually agreed to pay for renting the space, but we're certain it isn't coming cheap.
Not surprisingly, Bloomberg also cites research indicating that the largest number of immigrants moving into London from January through August of this year hail from Italy, which makes sense considering the number of Italian executives and workers we'd expect would have to relocate to the UK in order to work at Fiat's new home. The company reportedly plans to be in place in London by the time it holds its next round of board meetings in October.
