[@imperiallebaron4476]

Most people I know would say i'm crazy, but this car is the most beautiful car ever made. Lincoln and Cadillac are nice cars, but they just can't compete with the style, class and over all beauty of the 1974&1975 Imperial LeBaron. I WANT ONE............BADLY!!!!

[@EbonyBunny1]

The 1976 - 1978 Chrysler New Yorker Brougham was virtually the same car.

[@MillerMeteor74]

Imperial LeBaron- I agree!

[@SpockvsMcCoy]

The big Chryslers of that era had quality control problems that big Oldsmobiles, Buicks, Cadillacs, Mercurys, and Lincolns did not have. Lincolns from the 1970s have the highest collectable value among those biggies, except Eldorado convertibles. My 1976 Town Car is an amazing machine. These Imperials/later New Yorkers do have beautiful styling and their 4-wheel disc brakes were class leading. My favorite is a 1960 Imperial Lebaron.

[@shawnmcculley2995]

This car is wwwwaaayyy better looking than a Cadillac or Lincoln of that year. And probably just as reliable.

[@kyboy5]

@@SpockvsMcCoy Imperial was the better built car Cadillac and Lincoln were nice cars but the doors wouldn't always line up and Imperial really inspected each ride

[@michaelcerza871]

This has to be one of the most beautiful luxury cars from that period of time. Cadillac and Lincoln big sedans had nothing on the graceful, subtle lines of this beast, and the interior luxury was something to behold. In my opinion, this car was the most beautiful large luxury sedan we had in the US, and this example in this color combination was stunning! Thanks for posting this video

[@johnmaki3046]

The Imperials were BEST! NO DOUBT HERE!

[@user-sw3ws2td5r]

Beautiful inside and out look at those seats

[@ce9345]

The 74 and 75 Imperial's were one of the only cars to have platinum tip spark plugs and 4 wheel disc brakes as standard equipment!

[@mrsebring181]

Damn, I'm sorta speechless. Mopars used to be so nice. That 440 gurgle. The 727. The plush interior with power everything. The chrome and waterfall grille. Nice.

[@alanstrong55]

Who could not like a luxury boat like this? Mr. Exner would appreciate this car.

[@bc5441]

My dad had a two-door ‘75 LeBaron, and after Imperial went away, he followed up with a couple of 4-door New Yorker Broughams in different colors than this one, but with the vent windows. These were beautiful cars. I hope this one found a good home, a forever home!

[@34Packardphaeton]

What a lovely, fine automobile! It has nice colors, great leather, a FOUR-door HARDTOP, and equipped with the optional VENT windows!! Hooray!! "Dear Santa, I've been a good boy this year......"

[@34Packardphaeton]

Yeah.... but it sure beats not having vent windows!!!!!!

[@crazycanuck2578]

I had a 1971 Imperial Le Baron fully loaded, what a cruiser that thing was, I liked and drove it more than my 69 Chevelle, Just a beautiful driving car.

[@oliasofsunhillow7116]

My fourth car was a 1971 Imperial LeBaron four door, Tawny Gold Metallic, black top and tan leather interior, fully loaded with the rear heater/defroster and the computer controlled four wheel sure brake system! And everything worked at first! From 1982 to 1986! I miss it!

[@desiderious1]

Beautiful car. Notice back then luxury cars unlike today's used thick quality carpet and padding and the seats were like sitting on a couch seat. The door panels also were luxuriously padded with beautiful leather and thick carpet accents in addition to quality chromed metal fixtures unlike today's cheap chromed plastic even on so called luxury cars.

[@paulpalmtree9295]

Imagine living close to this guy, Wow this choice and quality of his cars would be great. And I probably would have first chance to buy before anybody else. This Imperial is just gorgeous....nice quiet and peaceful place to.

[@MillerMeteor74]

The car appears to be flawless, and I love the color combination. I'd buy this in a second if I could. Wow. I'm in love.

[@sampsonramm6630]

Thank you, nice ride! My parents had one when I was growing up....I can still remember spending the day Saturday washing and waxing all 3000 feet of this car (ok so exaggerating just a bit) just for the privilege of taking this beauty out for a cruise on a Saturday night. While all my friends had the "fast cars" as it turned out...the cruiser was the way to go. With comfortable seating for 6 and the 8 track/ FM stereo (with 4 speakers) it was party central... I miss that car to this day.

[@34Packardphaeton]

Yeah.... and plenty of room for lots of lovely ladies!!

[@veronicahawthorne3452]

Gorgeous car. American luxury at its finest. I would love one in this condition!

[@BlueLineClassics]

Couldn't agree more!

[@lordapophis5723]

Who needs a Lamborghini? This is good enough

[@megaswenson]

Actually, it's infinitely BETTER THAN a Lambo. Lamborghinis are for inexplicably-affluent subhumans, whose brains have never progressed beyond what is normal for a 9-year-old human of average intelligence. For humans who're above-average, zipping-around making noise in a silly conveyance, is something which loses its appeal, somewhere around age five (if not sooner).

[@mosesberkowitz3298]

Spoken like someone who can’t afford one. Ha ha- I'd love to have the Lamboghini and this Imperial; They’re both at the top of their class!

My '77 New Yorker Brougham had these features! It was a QUALITY CAR that (used) would have lasted me TEN YEARS, but my "ex-wife" pounded it to CRAP in ONE YEAR because "it wasn't her color/brand"!

[@Tfontaine209]

thanks good memories. my Dad had two Imperials

[@goropeza101]

This car was expensive for its time costing a few dollars more than the deVille series Cadillac and the Standard model Lincoln Continental towncar. It was available with optional abs and airbags back in 1974!

[@oliasofsunhillow7116]

They used the computer controlled four wheel sure brake system from 1971 to 1975, my '71 had them but, they never used airbags back then! Not that I know of! Only Mercedes had the airbags since 1971, I think!

[@Lonewolf-kw8gg]

@@oliasofsunhillow7116 I think GM offered airbags in 76 model Buicks

[@shawnmcculley2995]

Insanely BEAUTIFUL!!!!! I know they made this one more year but this one's better because the '75's had catalytic converters. This puts Cadillac to shame!! Oh, by the way, no vent windows in '75. '74 is the last REAL Imperial.

What a spectacular and well preserved automobile. I still believe these are going to be appreciated some day. Nothing beats a huge American Luxo Mobile from the 70s.

[@1983jblack]

These cars were a steal at $7700 in '74 and $8800 in '75 vs Lincoln and Cadillac. Because they looked alot like lower priced models is why they were discontinued, but Chrysler was ahead of the curve with four wheel disc brakes and solid state ignition in the '74 models. They had more horsepower than the competition in both '74 and '75 (Keep in mind Cadillac used the 472 in the Fleetwood in '74 and the 500 in '75). I know Chrysler's quality was abysmal in the late '70s but really don't know about Imperial's quality that much. Plus, Imperials just looked nice. I'm a Lincoln person primarily and really like the 1975-78 Town Car/Town Coupe ('79 they discontinued the 460 so I wouldn't even consider those) but the Imperial is a close second. I'm just not a big fan the Fleetwoods from 1971-76, though I do like the 1977-79 models.

Exactly right !! Where are all these "Chrysler Imperial" guys coming from, anyway ? They don't know just WHAT they're talking about !! Don't they even READ Automotive History ?

[@EbonyBunny1]

You have to blame Chrysler. Some times an Imperial was a Chrysler, other times it was it's own division.

[@EbonyBunny1]

Twilight. In the 1990's they were Chrysler again. Before 1955, but I do not remember the years, some models were part of Chrysler, some were it's own division. I agree Chrysler never knew how to market the car. That is why it sold the least, compared to Cadillac, Lincoln, & Continental. Ford did the same with Continental. Sometimes Continental's were their own division, other times they were part of Lincoln. But the difference was Lincoln was still a luxury car. When Imperials were part of Chrysler, the Chrysler division of Chrysler was luxury brand. Chrysler should have kept Imperial separate. Separate dealerships, separate literature, separate ads.

[@MillerMeteor74]

It's like calling a Lincoln a "Ford Lincoln", which obviously no one does.

[@rev.matthewfontana7448]

Yes! Chrysler made Imperial a model in 1990. I was informed the electronics were bad, compared to the New Yorker. I'll be this was never a problem with Imperials of the days of yore (of course there were different stories about 1981-83)!

I agree with all who comment about how handsome this car and all the others through 1978. The only unsightly thing are the Federally mandated front shoulder belts required starting in 1974. This year’s Cadillac was very clumsily styled and the Lincoln was overdone. I think I want one of these Mopars. Were they reliable?
