Re: IML: FW: 1971 Chrysler Imperial LeBaron Two-Door Hardtop - The 50 Worst Cars of All Time - TIME

[PAUL WENTINK <randalpark@xxxxxxx>]

Well, I don't know anything about '97 Prowlers, but from an engineering 
and quality control stand point, the 1934 Chrysler Airflow and the 1971 
Imperial were decently built cars. Perhaps in the context of the 
article, the writer attributes his judgements based on sales success, 
public acceptance, or some other criteria.

Well, we don't know what the author is smoking, and he probably wasn't 
even born when most of those cars were produced.  It's interesting to 
note that of the 50 worst cars he lists, only 3 were built by 
Chrysler: a 34 Airflow, the 71 Lebaron, and a 97 Prowler.

Time Magazine (I was unaware it was still published) has trashed 
Imperials
in a recent article. Here's the link:

The author probably drives an electric scooter and has a tin cup hanging
from his belt.
