1989 Chrysler New Yorker Landau Sedan 4-door 3.0l on 2040-cars
Georgetown, Texas, United States
|
Hi there. My name is
Stephen. I am selling my truly gorgeous 1989 Chrysler
New Yorker Landau, with 91,791 miles because, in addition to my daily driver, which is a newer Lexus
LS430, I like to occupy my second garage space with something classic & fun as my second
car. I like to take it to local car shows with, as well as to have as a back up if my main car has issues, or have it on hand for visiting family, etc. I actually had one of these new in back in Yonkers, NY, in 1988, which my parents bought for me me as a present when I graduated high school, so
for me it was like recapturing my youth; but I am ready to have something else.
I now need to make room for my next baby, a project Cadillac Allante I am buying
through EBay. This "classy-beauty" was always a "TEXAS
CAR" (no snow/salt/bad weather) and was “GARAGE KEPT” through its entire life by me and the previous ownership. The seats, carpet, dash, headliner, visors, (headliner & visors were expertly re-covered several years ago and look perfect) vinyl
top (The photo of the vinyl top has a strange camera reflection/glare but the top's color & sheen are "just perfect"!), grille w/ crystal hood ornament, weather-strips, paint, and chrome are in truly amazing condition. I am a bit O.C.D. when it comes to my cars,
and I can assure you that every single creature feature right down to the power antenna,
illuminated entry lighted keyholes in the door/steering column, heated mirrors,
low washer/coolant/brake fluid reminders, air suspension, headlight doors, remote fuel filler door, power windows & locks/electric trunk release, power mirrors, dash electronics, cruise control, automatic
climate control (with very hot heat and nice cold ac), stereo/cassette with 8
factory Chrysler-Infinity-One Sound speakers, etc. works perfectly. No check engine
light or other warning lights are on. This car even has the original
factory floor mats. It has a brand new
alternator, brand new ac compressor, ac pressure switch, receiver/dryer, expansion valve, brand new starter, starter relay, coolant fan, coolant fan relay, and a new battery
(the biggest/best one AutoZone sells). It also has lots and lots of tread left on the nice matched whitewall tires, front CV axles (both
sides), alignment, tire rotation & balance, coolant hoses & antifreeze flush, fuel injection service,
spark plugs & cap-rotor-wires, serpentine and ac belts, ignition coil, air filter, fuel filter, left
rear air shock (left side began to leak air causing the suspension pump to run,
but the right side is fine), and much, much more. Always serviced on time (oil/fluid changes, etc.). Comes with the original owners manual &
delivery flyers/papers, original window sticker (with tax & fees, this car was over $25,000 25 years ago "in 1989"), leatherette glove box folio, demonstrator cassette,
Vintage Over sized 1989 Chrysler New Yorker Full Color Showroom sales brochure, 24k gold and Crystal-Key (I actually have a second, new in original dealer packaging 24k gold plated Crystal-key that I was going to keep as a souvenir, but if you would like to have it, you can), factory locking wire
wheel cover key (it is kept in a little Chrysler-logo black leatherette tool kit that I picked up somewhere and liiks nice in the trunk), 2 additional original Chrysler
black rubber grip door/ignition keys + original 2 Chrysler glove box/trunk keys. She was detailed inside & out at Mister Car Wash late last year.
This car is FULLY LOADED and DOES
have the very cool EVIC overhead digital information display (outside temp, MPG, distance to empty, trip computer, and lots of messages like headlamps on, time/date, compass, door/trunk ajar, washer, coolant, brake fluid low, and on and on.... *VERY AHEAD OF ITS TIME*), rear headphone jacks,
articulating headrests, memory seat with electric recliners, electric trunk pull down, electro-chromatic
automatic dimming rear view mirror (a nice Chrysler dealer installed option at
that time), lighted vanity mirrors, cup holders, and a whole lot more. Undercarriage is SUPERB. I have always used Shell 93 octane premium
fuel. She has the original Chrysler windshield
(one tiny, tiny star on the passenger side which was repaired professionally by Safelight Glass). The car was in a minor accident about 5
years ago and was expertly repaired through my insurance company State Farm. The windows have a medium-light tint, very nicely done. This did & will continue to keep the interior cool and from fading. This car can be used as a daily driver with
no problem, or can continued to be kept for classic; but either way, I really hope she will
become someone’s pride and joy, just as she was to me. It currently has Texas Antique License Plates that do not go with the
car. This car is certainly among the best preserved Chrysler New Yorkers in the
world. The seats are among the most soft & comfortable seating ever to be put into a passenger car (even my Lexus LS430 is not nearly as comfy as this car), and it the New Yorker was way ahead of its time in the area of eighties hi-tech and was one of the most plush & luxurious cars ever to hit the road, but, you probably know that already if you are viewing this car. Car comes with years and years of
service records. This being said, you
will find a tiny ding or scratch here and there. I say this because it is a 25 year old car
and I am not implying that she just rolled off the assembly line. This car is being offered locally, so I
reserve the right to remove it from EBay if someone buys it locally first. If you want her don’t wait long. THIS CAR IS BEING SOLD “AS IS WHERE IS”! There is no warranty or guarantee expressed
or implied whatsoever. Please feel free to contact me to arrange an in-person
or third party inspection and test drive.
I will work with you and your transporter if the car is to be shipped or
this car can be driven home, across the country IN MY OPINION. FYI, Car has no odors at all, smoke or otherwise. If you like this model of car, this one should be yours. I have priced it very very fairly for it's condition. Honestly, I have "spared no expense" on this cars purchase and upkeep. I loved and babied this car and tried to keep it PERFECT!!! When it needed something, ANYTHING, I did it and did it right!!! What I am selling it for is nowhere near what I have in it, but I never get out of my pet cars what I put in, it was just fun to have her for a while. No out of country buyers, no scams (I am aware of all of them). Just plain cash or certified funds on delivery. I have the title in my name, in hand ready to go. Serious inquirers can email me through EBay for my phone number for text or conversation. Thanks for looking, Respectfully, Stephen BTW, "PEOPLE ALWAYS LOOK AND COMMENT TO ME ON WHAT A UNIQUE AND PRISTINE CAR THIS IS NOW THEY WILL JUST BE SAYING IT TO YOU!" |

Chrysler earns $1.7B in 2012, revises product plans for US
Wed, 30 Jan 2013Hot on the heels of Ford's earnings announcement for the year that was, Chrysler today reported a 2012 net income of $1.7 billion, up substantially from the comparatively minuscule $183 million profit earned in 2011 when it repaid its US government loans.
Chrysler's good year ended with an excellent fourth quarter that saw net income rise 68 percent from $225 million in 2011 to $378 million. Where are all those extra earnings coming from? Market share, which Chrysler saw increase to 11.4% last year on sales of 1.65 million vehicles. In fact, the Auburn Hills, MI-based automaker out-paced the industry's market growth of 13 percent last year with sales up 21 percent for the year.
The company also revealed an updated product plan for its Chrysler Group and Fiat brands that looks all the way out to 2016. It's an updated version of the plan introduced in 2009 shortly after Fiat took control of the American automaker, and includes such new additions as an Alfa Romeo model, likely the 4C, to be introduced in the US this year, as well five more Alfa models by 2016. Likewise, Fiat will be growing by an additional seven models in the coming few years.
eBay Find of the Day: 1979 Chrysler ETV-1 electric car prototype
Mon, 27 Jan 2014Electric cars may be reaching their time in the sun with successes like the Tesla Model S, but the basic concept goes back to practically beginning of motoring. EVs also saw a brief renaissance in the 1970s when automakers were trying find a way around rising fuel prices. This 1979 Chrysler ETV-1 concept for sale on eBay Motors is a great example from that era.
Built in 1979, designers hoped the ETV-1 would preview what an electric car would look like in 1985. The base price was slated to start at $6,400, or the rough equivalent of $20,536, which seems like an optimistic price. General Electric created the ETV-1's powertrain, and Chrysler was in charge of styling. At the time, the Department of Energy called it "the first advanced four-passenger subcompact experimental electric car."
While it seems ancient compared to today's EVs, the ETV-1 featured regenerative braking and a computer-controlled electric motor. Chrysler reported a 100-mile range at 45 miles per hour with two passengers in the car. The range fell to 75 miles with four passengers. Acceleration was not brisk with Chrysler claiming the run to 30 mph in 9 seconds. Power was stored in 18 lead-acid batteries, and a full charge took 10 hours from a home outlet.
Fiat and UAW back at negotiating table over Chrysler stake
Mon, 23 Dec 2013We knew there'd be no Chrysler IPO before the end of this year, but Fiat is determined to get the best run going into 2014 and is back at the poker table with the UAW. The delay was said to be Chrysler's desire to clean up a tax issue with the IRS; turns out that also bought the carmaker time to try and close a deal for the UAW's 48.5-percent stake in the company before the IPO happens.
Whereas the price Chrysler was willing to pay was once more than $1 billion under the UAW's asking price, the gap has closed to just $800 million of late. A recent valuation of the company at $10 billion - a valuation the UAW has disputed - means Fiat would be looking to pay about $4.2 billion instead of the $5 billion that the UAW seeks. But the UAW needs to hold out for the highest amount it can get because its pension obligations through the Voluntary Employee Benefit Association (VEBA) are $3.1 billion greater than the VEBA's assets, which include the Chrysler stake.
There's a clause in the agreement that Fiat can buy the VEBA shares for $6 billion, but Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne has said that the UAW "should buy a ticket for the lottery" if they even want $5 billion. The UAW, though, has more time to wait; it's Fiat that wants access to Chrysler's $11.9-billion war chest and that would like to avoid the risk of paying the full $6 billion for the UAW share if the float really takes off. With other valuations of Chrysler as high as $19 billion, a hot IPO could make that $6 billion look like a bargain.
