  • My First Car

    I loved my 1998 Cirrus LXI. Unfortunatly someone stole it off the highway within 25mins after pulling over. ( 2007 ) it was shutting down for some odd reason.It was never recovered. Antitheft system is horrible. They mustve thought is was real Gold or something...

  • Very reliable college car

    For being a much older car, it was very reliable. More and more problems the longer I had it. A/C not working well is a common problem with this car.

  • take it from the guy who has owned 4 of these cars

    ive had 4 of these cars, and everytime I sell one I end up making money on it. they do run forever if you maintain them well, they have lots of space inside for a midsize car. I can put 3 baby seats in the back seat (not many mid size cars can do that) the best part of the car is the Mitsubishi engine - do not get the Chrysler engine in this car.

  • Great

    A very timeless car to me. I have had people ask me if its a 2004. I only have 55k miles on mine so Haven't ran into to many issues. Smooth drive, relaxing and sleek. Blue book doesn't give this car enough credit. It is worth more then it rates.

  • An unknown perfect car

    After 150,000 miles still running strong. It has a high pith high rev 2.5 litter japanese engine which really picks up if you step on it. Leather power seat and all the luxury features. I like the reclining rear seats to extend trunk space a nice extra not on some cars and its a big trunk. I like the rear seat size amazing for its small car /midsize car footprint. It has 4 wheel disk brakes so there really isnt anything on a new car that this doesn't have. Perfect size comfort and power nothing to outrages just the perfect car.

  • Good car

    Well i own a Chrysler Cirrus 98. It is a decent car for the price. The Lxi version has good peppy power ( not great but definitely OK ), the interiors are comfortable, has power seats and power windows and alloy wheel covers. Pros - worth for money Cons - Seems slightly unreliable.. sometimes the Oil pressure shows low, brakes are pathetic ( low ) and the car doesnt have a great torque.. Get into wet mud a feet deep and your tires are stuck.. I would still recommend the car to people who want a low priced car and all luxuries it comes with... Final word - Not the best car but worth for Money
