As ridiculous as they are, I have such a soft spot for grand land yachts.

That thing is amazing. I drove a ‘72 Impala in high school that would look petite next to this ABSOLUTE UNIT of a car.

I think you misread the ad.
They pay you $15K if the $200K in parts and labor required is done at the shop of their choice.

Although Imperial as a brand has a 99.99999% of never returning, FCA needs to return to those standards for Chrysler.

Even if it’s permanently broken, it’s still beautiful garage art.

Yeah, you can kill a full day going through the sold listings - he even sold the 230SL Bill Harrah bought Tony Clifton (aka Andy Kaufman) back in the day. Complete with the 1970s poker chips found while cleaning out the car.

Yeah, dealer is a huge
Imperial fan, I think it might be one of those cars that sits in the showroom but is only really
for sale if you pay CP money.

I’m suprised more “influencers” haven’t started driving Imperials. This one’s a bit pricey, but where else are you going to make as big of an entry as you would in a 60s/70s Imperial?

It’s in extremely nice condition and I like it. The price is sensible for a rare car in that condition. B ut I don’t that many enthusiasts are interested in the se. It could be a difficult car to sell.

The guy who owns that dealership is a huge Imperial fan. I think it’s only for sale for “the right price.”
