    Possibly the single greatest year in Chrysler Corp's history - in terms of collective styling, engineering and power.

      Not power. The compression ratio was reduced in 1970 and even more in1971 because of government standards.

      @@fairfaxcat1312 on MoPar engines the compression ratios remained mostly the same until 1972. Even then, some were still the same. The main reason for the power rating drop in ‘71 was because of going to the SAE ratings.

      Styling yes. Quality no. My Dad’s ‘71 Newport was garbage. From the time it was new the rear end sang like an off-key church choir; the wind noise whistled unceasingly from the unframed ventless hard top windows; and the unsophisticated 383 would shake the whole car when sitting at a red light.

    My 1971 2 door Imperial was my # 2 best car I've ever owned. #1 was my 66 GTO. Quality and reliability were 100% in both cars. Both cars had good gas mileage also if your foot wasn't trying to go through the floor. Both cars had over 370 h.p. to the rear wheels and gobs of torque. Plus they rode great not like today's .

    • @matadorman78

      Imperial was a seperate division up to 1983. The 1990's version was the first of the return to Chrysler Imperial. The death of Imperial started with 1969 to 1973 models. They were just Chryslers with higher trim at this point. Even though they were, and true to this very day, the longest production cars made. Ahhh Imperial, beauty in motion.

      it was still registered as its own make but no longer marketed that way (starting in 1971). potential sales demonstrated it wasn't worth it anymore. there were also still separate chrysler, plymouth, and imperial signs at the dealerships(that didn't cost anything). or a couple of years through 1970, imperial even had about a dozen independent dealerships in the midwest(but that's an odd story).

      Please study the facts before making a misinformed statement yourself. When you do so you will discover that Imperial was in fact a separate division of Chrysler Corporation, It's own marque from 1955 through 1970. All the documentation is available for your revue. As is easily discerned from this video the information herein concerns the 1971 model year.
