Here's part of the eBay description:
Up for your bidding consideration is my prized 1985 Chrysler New Yorker turbo sedan. This car has only seen 24,114 miles of use in 28 years and when you look at it you can definitely tell. It features the Chrysler 2.2L Turbo 4 cylinder engine and the Torqueflite A413 3 speed transmission. The other option on these cars was the unreliable 2.6L Mitsubishi engine so I'm fortunate this car isn't equipped that way! As a proper luxury car of its time, it features power windows, power door locks, power mirrors, cruise control, air conditioning, digital instrument cluster, power driver seat, overhead console with map lights and storage, velour upholstry, and more. The car also has a electronic voice alert module which talks to you about any conditions it doesn't like such as buckling up or being low on fuel. This can be turned off via switch in the glovebox. Also, the a/c is ice cold so your drive home will be pleasant. The paint shines brilliantly, the interior is gorgeous, and the body is super nice. It still even has it's original tires with good tread, which is great for collectability and not so good for drivability.
However, since it was driven, there are a few small scratches, chips, and so forth. I've photographed any flaws I could find and included them in the pictures below. It wasn't kept hermetically sealed (as much as I wanted to) so it isn't 100% perfect. I've also never tried the cassette player in fear that it would steal the tape. That risk is up to you.
Realistically, this is probably one of the nicest New Yorker turbos left in the world... and I hope nothing more that it goes to a good home that will respect it for what it is and take excellent care of it. I've never left it outside a night since I bought it a year and a half ago and it's always been stored indoors since then. I have a carfax report to go along with the car to show you it's clean, low mileage history. It's never been in a wreck and I'm darn sure it's been treated right for it's whole life. I love this car almost as much as life itself but, unfortunately, with some hardships going on in my life it's time for me to say goodbye to the nicest vehicle I have ever had the privilege of owning.
