Great Car Great Price

I bought my 2005 Sebring Touring Convertible used in 2006 with 14,000 miles. It has been a very dependable car. I havent had to put ANY money into it except for oil changes & routine maintainence. It is suprisingly fuel efficent with about 28 mpg. This car is styilish, roomy, practical And very affordable. The only problem i have had is the doors pop when you open them from the weight of the heavy door. Other than that the sebring is a great year round car with top down beach appeal.

Great Simple Car

I've put about 30,000 on a used 2005 and it has been good all the way around. It is nice looking exterior, nice interior with simple and clean design, and an excellent runner with just normal maintanence. I would recommend to anyone who wants a good, simple car.

Phenominal Sebring Limited Convertible

I was fortunate to purchase a 05 Sebring LTD. Convertible in 09, with 3600 original miles , every available option, and Chrysler Certified. It's a gem. I am getting 25 MPG at 75 miles per hour. The vehicle is tight ,quiet , built with quality materials. Fit and finish are exceptional on this car. Oh, by the way its a snowcat in the New England snowy weather, amazing!

Ready to move on

I bought my Sebring '05 touring in early '06 and so far it has been a great home to work, occassionally going out kinda car. The reliability is sorta questionable though. The horn and o2 sensor had to be fixed twice. But overall ride comfort and gas mileage have been excellent, but I'm definetly ready to upgrade already after just 2 and half years.

I'm done

I've owned 14 Chrsylers so far, and, my latest, an 05 Sebring, has convinced me to switch brands. Mine is a 4 door Signature series with the 2.7 V6, leather, sunroof, and alloy wheels. First the high points - The car is reasonably comfortable on trips, and, gets good fuel economy. Power is adequate, but, nothing special. For the money I paid, it initially appeared to be an excellent value for a daily business driver. The downside - the reliabily of this car has been unacceptable. I've put about 50K on the car so far and have had: coolant leaks, water leaks, a complete transmission failure, and parts of the engine induction system broke. The cars been in the shop a total of 3.5 months since I've owned it. Currently, the replacement transmission sounds like an electric can opener at low speeds, and, I'm wondering if its trying to die again. I'll not buy another one.

A comfortable car with conservative style.

The chrysler 4dr Sebring is a smooth ride with good value. With gas prices at its current level of inflation, the 4 cyldr. engine is great with gas mileage. The body design is basic enough for the conservative driver, but stylish enough for the more creative driver to add on to. Overall, I was very satisfied with the purchase of a pre-owned sebring.

Good value

I bought my Sebring mostly because of the price. These cars being highly "rental" vehicles, there seems to be lots of them to choose from...and at a very good price. I got the 2.4 motor, which I thought would get better mileage on the hwy, but the city mileage has be very good at around 22mpg. (Hwy at around 27) But, even though these are mainly just basic transportation, at the price the used ones are going for, it's hard to beat the value. Plus having Chryslers in the past, the reliability has been better than years ago. (70's)

great car

I have had my 2005 Sebring Sedan for 4 months now. I find it to be a smooth riding, easy to handle vehicle with GREAT gas mileage. Mine is a 4 cylinder, which has exceptional power for a 4 cylinder engine. The Sebring is a sporty looking sedan with a touch of class. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a car with a sharp image and is dependable with a smooth ride. Dont forget!!!...it's great on gas!!!!!
