Filed under: Sedan , Plants/Manufacturing , Chrysler , Maserati , Lancia The last time Chrysler and Maserati got together , America was blessed with what appeared to the entire world to be little more than a gussied-up two-seat Chrysler LeBaron convertible with a removable hardtop and opera-style windows. Apparently, since that last marriage between Detroit and Modena proved so, ahem, successful,...
New Belgium Bike In Cinema Thursday, October 8th and 15th Triangle Park ( 4600 Guadalupe ) Free, with a suggested donation of $2, Film Starts at Dusk [ info ] There seems to be some sort of movement going on lately, a movement that we support in theory if not in action (we're lazy), but all of our friends can't stop talking about riding bikes. Thursday Night Social Rides , Monday Night Ladiez Rides,...
I happen to enjoy the fact that Twisted Sister is making strides towards a comeback , even though they were never really at the top tape of my bin (They were kind of a "Pontiac Firebird" band, and I always felt more "Chrysler LeBaron Convertible"). Dee Snider actually entertains me quite consistently as a droopy-faced older gent with a bag full of memories and VH1 sound-byte commentary...
From his cell at Mule Creek State Prison, disgraced businessman and once-prominent insider Roberto P. Vellanoweth has reached back into Sacramento to stir outrage once more in the drunken driving manslaughter case in which he killed four people. Vellanoweth, 65, who is serving a 17-year, eight-month prison term after his conviction last year in Sacramento Superior Court, has filed a lawsuit against...
QUEENSBURY—A Lake Luzerne man with four previous convictions for drunk driving was arrested again Sunday and charged with operating a motor vehicle at nearly four times the legal threshold for intoxication. Donald A. Fontaine, 56, was arrested following a traffic shop about 8:08 p.m. after patrol officer Adam Spinelli saw a 1991 Chrysler Lebaron operated by [...]
- Am I the only cold-hearted witch that doesn’t feel sorry for the “victims” of the Madoff fiasco? At some point I read an article in the NY Times that talked about how many people didn’t invest their money with him because they thought it all sounded too good to be true. I’m also not sure that a sentence of 150 years fits the crime. All I know is that keeping my life...
It was with mixed emotions that read and hear Chrysler Corporation announcing reopening plants in Canada and the U.S. While I am sure many are elated that the plants will reopen and Union workers will be returning to work, for at least a short time, to assemble Chrysler Vehicles, many others are not. I am one of those “many others.” I have been a loyal owner of Chrysler products for the...
Megan Fox is not only one of the most prolific thinkers of our time, but she also knows how to show up to premiere looking like a Downtown Las Vegas stripper on the prowl for a dollar, a dick and a dream! An elegant dress like this could take you from a dinner at a fancy restaurant to getting quick dicked in the back of an '89 Chrysler LeBaron. This dress has it all. Megan Fox made the right choice...
( By April Bethea, abethea@charlotteobserver.com) Two people were killed this weekend in Catawba County when the car they were riding in was struck by another vehicle. The wreck occurred around 5:45 p.m. Saturday on Thornburg Drive in Conover. Police Chief Gary Lafone said the driver of a Chrysler LeBaron was exiting Interstate 40 and making a left turn onto Thornburg when it was struck by a Chevy...
So when President Taylor took away the keys to Jonas Hodges Chrysler LeBaron on 24 , we all thought the threat was over (assuming you forget the series runs thru May) . But as he was getting dragged away, Jonas pointed out he was just a small cog in a larger conspiracy. And sure as Tony Almeida has 9 lives, he was right. So did that ESPN article and TheStreet canning Lenny end the threat of idiotic...
We were skeptical of the technology claims , but didn't take the time to double-check another of the "facts" stated in a recent (and now ended) eBay auction for a Chrysler LeBaron convertible. It turns out that while BrocktonEnergyLLC used "Experimental X-prize" in the name of the auction, the folks over at the Progressive Automotive X Prize never heard of him . The X Prize's Bethann...
Filed under: Etc., Chrysler, Automotive X-Prize At least one hopeful Automotive X-Prize competitor won’t be participating in the event as planned. It seems that Brockton Energy wasn’t quite able to achieve its goal of hitting 100 miles per gallon with the modified Chrysler LeBaron convertible that the team was working with, so the car is now [...]

What we really want to know here is: does "available leather-fitted cabin" mean the '85 LeBaron GTS has Soft Corinthian Leather ? Or did you actually get basketball leather?
The Replica Audi R8 built on the Mercury Cougar was pretty impressive, but it was easy to see it was not actually a real R8. Take the attributes of the Replica R8 and amplify them and you get this: a Mercedes SL600 that's actually a Chrysler LeBaron underneath. The look is uncanny, and you'd have to be an SL 600 aficionado to know the difference from a distance. But pop the hood or look at the interior...
