1. the 2.7 motor is crap i sell everyone i can get for 1750.00
2. Junk engine. These were put in Concords Intreopids and a couple others as well. The heads will blow (2000+ for repairs) And they are not reliable - bad idea. Look for one with the 3.3 or the 3.5 engine. The gas mileage is a little lower but the engines are a lot better than the 2.7
3. Not only is the motor no great shakes, it is woefully underpowered for such a big car. Avoid this one. Typically they only put that motor in rental cars. I would have to say I would avoid a 7yr old Chrysler product with some miles on it all together. The transmissions in general tend to make it maybe 100k miles, and head gaskets are a problem on certain motors as well.
