Chrysler TC by Maserati

This ad pretty much says it all – the love child of Iaccoca and an Italian. Undeniably, is was the costliest K-car ever!

Clink for Ad

What was the result?  Well, something that looked more-or-less like any other LeBaron, but with a T-Birdesque porthole top.  I seem to recall these, like Cadillac Allantes, were flown over the Atlantic as part of their journey to showrooms and, ultimately, failure.

Yeah, okay, it was the best looking LeBaron, but still…

This thing did have extra leather heaped on in a rather gaudy fashion.  Anyone who’s seem a Biturbo understands.

Just to make it weirder – how about some Mitsubishi power.  I recall some of these had a turbo four and manual trans, but this ain’t one of ’em.
