LeBarons were derived from the front wheel drive Dodge Spirit/Plymouth Acclaim but were more luxurious. Back in 1987, Chrysler's LeBaron coupe and convertibles went through some radical changes and the new shape was destined to stick around until 1995. By the '90s, LeBaron was America's top-selling convertible. Only 4-cylinder engines were available in early seasons, but in 1990 Chrysler added a Mitsubishi-built V6 option. A 4-speed automatic was also added to the range of options. Coupes and convertibles came in Highline or Premium trim, along with sportier GT and GTC variants.
