1997 Intrepid Review Summary & Specifications

Now that the LH has been in the marketplace for more than four years,

we're somewhat torn. On the one hand, we love this car. On the other, even

though we hotly anticipate innovations--and the LH cars are headed for

a truly head-turning redesign for 1998--we almost hate to see Chrysler

tampering with such a wonderfully-crafted car.

On the other hand, with updates on the near-horizon, this is a good

time to cut an extra good deal on the current Intrepid. We find it hard

to imagine anyone being disappointed with this car.
