I'm looking at prospective new cars for my daughter who is just driving. We wanted to have her share her care with me, but because summer's coming and she has a job and such, we find it a hassle to share and would much prefer to buy her a used car. My husband who has a friend who owns his mechanic shop ended up finding her a Chrysler Sebring 2000 Convertible and we all agree it's a good car for her. The one question I forgot to ask the friend is an estimate on how much it'd take to fill up the car completely with gas? Is the gas mileage good? Any comments about the car itself would be appreciated as well. Thank You

How much would it cost to fill up the gas tank of a Chrysler Sebring 2000 Convertible?

A fill up on this car is about 18 gallons so plan on about $50 for a fill up from the red mark on the fuel level. Most people average in the low 20's as far as fuel mileage for the 2.5 V6, higher for the 2.4L four cylinder. This engine does not suffer from vapor lock. The V6 is prone to oil leaks as it approaches 100,000 miles. Check to see if the timing belt has been changed. It should be changed every 75 to 90,000 miles, and a broken timing belt will leave you stranded and could cause major engine damage. Make sure the top works. Good luck, More info at http://www.edmunds.com/chrysler/sebring/2000/index.html

They made a lot of them so they do not have great resale. At 2.60 a gallon approx 38.00 to fill up. Chrysler has a problem with the V6 engine vapor locking and it will leave you stranded w/o GPS. 4 cylinder runs forever. It will get about 24 on the highway with the top down and 27 to 30 with it up, windows shut and ac on.
