1990 Plymouth Acclaim LE 4dr Sedan
We could always count on this car with
very little time in the shop. Plenty
of room throughout the car. Great for
shopping or traveling and with 23mph
city and 28 highway not too expensive
to use. Yes the valves tap but they've
been tapping for 60 thousand miles with
no problem. My wife loves it and had
it repainted last year. The original
paint job was coming off … but with the
new color it's almost like new.

This is my 3rd Acclaim in about 10 years. I love these cars. They're reliable and excellent in the snow, not to mention inexpensive to operate and maintain.
170000 and still going!

1990 Plymouth Acclaim LX 4dr Sedan
I love this car! I've owned it for 10
years with no major repairs. Yes, the
paint peeled horribly but I had it
repainted and it looks like new. This
car is very comfortable and roomy for a
small car. It knocks a little upon
start-up but it has done this since I
bought the car. It burns a little oil
but not so much that I must add oil
between oil changes. For a 14 … year old
car, it still gets 30 mpg on the
highway. It has lots of get-up-and-
go. I have taken care of this car and
it has taken care of me.
