I hate these fake videos that all the dealers use; nothing more that Powerpoint photos with a soundtrack.

how about a 2012 imperial, wonder what that would look like!

I saw a road test on youtube from the 70's for this car, it was amazing how much body roll and lean it had. And despite the size of the engine so strangled by emission control power to weight was very poor and the wheel hop under braking. They just have such a presence though, and just say, "Hey I'm not made to go fast but I'll get you there in style and so softly you'll feel like you're driving your couch"

@IanTC12 Nothing wrong with that.

this car is beautiful, the name, imperial...it really is.

[SAIOUA1984]

Superb car.

[chargalant]

My parents had a 72 NY Brougham 440 coupe when I was in High School. Was the same as the Imperial, less the cost. Hence, one of the first of 3 deaths of the line....always was a great car....but just a dressed-up Chrysler in the beginning and sadly, the end....Albeit, the 80-83 was unique. Ask Lee Iacocca about the Frank Sinatra edition.

I could put my Mini Cooper in the trunk.

"Imperial" not "Chrysler"

You could say "by Chrysler" because that is what it said on the car.

It was supposed to be a seperate marquee as in Mercury or Plymouth!!!

[itsmegp46]

@MrTrack412 It was somewhere around the late 60's, early 70's that this was no longer true. Imperial sales were so low, Chrysler couldn't afford to keep the Imperial as a separate line. So around this time, the Imp. was merged back onto the Chrysler assembly line and was once more known as a Chrysler Imperial.

[imperial73]

@itsmegp46 Imperial was a separate division from 1955 to 1975. In 1955 and 56, the Imperial was indeed a dressed up Chrysler, as someone was able to make a 56 Imperial convertable using parts from a 56 Imperial and a 56 Chrysler Saratoga convertible. This was not true from 57-73. In those years the Imperial had a different body and different, non-interchangable parts. I know this to be true because I own and drive a 73 Imperial every day, and most C-body parts do not interchange.

[itsmegp46]

@imperial73 You have the years mixed up. Chrysler adopted unit body construction for the 1967 model year however Imperial continued with its unique body shell. For 1969, "To reduce development and tooling costs, and bring overall expenditures more in line with actual sales, Imperial was forced to share much of its bodyshell with Chrysler for the first time since 1956. Consequently, front and rear doors, quarter panels, decklids, glass, and roofs were common with the lowliest Chrysler Newport"

@itsmegp46 Look it up on Wikipedia, it gives you all the historical information year by year.

[blitzedburgh090]

thats 2000 miles huh? sorry :)

[blitzedburgh090]

200miles huh. i smell the bullshit more than the leaded gas this thing is burning

[Me112233]

Get those top/bottom captions off the screen. It blocks the view of the car.

And she say 2,000 miles? That's just messed up. I vote for a replaced instrument panel.

[starladear002]

At this point in time, this car was an Imperial only not a Chrysler Imperial. The narrator should have said, "presenting a 1972 Imperial, by Chrysler.
