This Year's Model Updates:

The Sebring sedan debuts for 2001 along with redesigned versions of the coupe and convertible. A new, more powerful V6 joins the enlarged four-cylinder, with a manual five-speed available in the coupe. The Autostick automanual is still an option for those who can't decide where they stand on the shift issue, but only on upscale LXi models with the V6. An Infinity premium sound system with an in-dash CD changer is also new this year.

Pros:
  • Value packed, powerful V6, sleek shape.
Cons:
  • Poor resale value, no manual transmission for sedans.

  • Had for 4.5 years and still going strong - 2001 Chrysler Sebring
    By -

    I have had this car since spring of 2002 and I still love driving it. I changed the brake pads and fluids at 50,000 and have changed the tires twice in 60,000 miles, and thats been the only maintenance necessary (other than oil changes). It still runs smoothly, and still has plenty of power. This car is the perfect balance between performance and practicality. I have moved apartments twice, transporting my stuff in this car. The back seat is spacious, and the sound system is GREAT. I didnt expect to still love the car this much after 4 and a half years, and I still get compliments on it.

  • Best Value Convertible ? - 2001 Chrysler Sebring
    By -

    Ive had my car for over a year and in addition to providing me with great summer entertainment, it performed formidably throughout a full Canadian winter. The car is beautiful, fairly economical, and the acceleration is smooth and quick. The single largest problem that this car has is body shake. It becomes especially noticeable when the top gets thoroughly wet. If the 2007 Hard Top will address these issues, I might re-think buying the convertible Solara.

  • Youll love it and so do the twins! - 2001 Chrysler Sebring

    Where can you get a convertible that can ride 4 people and have so much fun and a great look? Only with the Seabring Limited. I love the car as much today as the day i bought it. I have the blue with the white leather interior and it catches peoples attention wherever we are. Its a great car for me to unwind from work to home and now that my twins are older they love to take a cruise in it too.

    This is the best car I have purchased for comfort, handling, and style. It has a sporty look and feel.

  • Dont Buy One!!!!!!!!!!!!! - 2001 Chrysler Sebring
    By -

    To be honest, I enjoyed driving this car...whenever it wasnt in the shop! Its charms are purely exterior. Under that steel hood lies its glass jaw - The Engine. Mine is toast after 50,000 miles. (Coincidentally it was just paid off 2 weeks ago) This was a maintained vehicle that averaged 10,000 mi/yr, mostly highway & light usage. BTW Ive already had this thing in the shop on numerous occasions to the tune of over $3000 in repairs which they obviously never got right. Dont let the slick packaging fool you, as you can see by the other comments- Sebring=Bad car buy! Also- Larry Roesch Chrysler is just about as customer friendly as snakes on a plane, but your money is better spent at the theater!

  • Cant top Chrysler - 2001 Chrysler Sebring
    By -

    Great car. It replaced a same year Neon, which was also a great car, but I wanted a droptop. I sacrificed my new system in my Neon for the Chrysler premium audio system, it sounds good, but will definitely be replaced in the future. One thing I wish the Sebring had was a CD player, its available with the higher end models or extra option. Drives great, love the V6, has balls. Wind noise at interstate speeds is minimal unless there is strong wind outside, then its a little louder, but can be fixed with extra stripping around the front and rear window junctions. I drove it from my hometown to Denver the day I purchased it, and it was superb. The gas mileage was comparable to my Neon.

  • 2001 sebring drives - 2001 Chrysler Sebring
    By -

    The 6 cyl is sluggish when compared to the Mitsubishi Galant 6 cyl I owned before this. The sebring is comfortable on a long trip. I now have 83k miles and average repair bills, although more than the 1994 Plymouth Grand Voyager I bought new which now has 149k miles.

  • A lot of car for the money! - 2001 Chrysler Sebring
    By -

    Beautiful car to drive, and its a real head turner. Handles very well, but maintains a comfortible ride. Controls well laid out and intuitive to use.

  • Transmission - 2001 Chrysler Sebring
    By -

    Transmissions are known to go after 80,000 miles. Of course they dont volunteer this information until it goes out. Unfortunately the extended warranty that was supposedly good until 2009 or 80,000 miles which ever came first wasnt good for anything. I was faced with a 3000 to 5000 dollar repair or leave the car sitting while I continue to make payments. Dont ever buy a pre-owned or used Chrysler SeBring. I am VERY Disapointed!
