1991 Chrysler TC by Maserati

1991 Chrysler TC by Maserati Rare and unique would be words to describe a Chrysler TC by Maserati. They were produced for three model years 1989 through 1991 under a partnership between Chrysler and Maserati and were produced in Milan Italy. 1990 Chrysler TCs were priced at $35,000 in 1990! Largely because of the price only 7,000 or ever sold. After every other Chrysler executive insisted that the TC was hopeless and should be written off, Lococca refused to accept responsibility for its failure saying it might have worked if his marketers had positioned it properly. According to Bob Lutz, a Chrysler executive, the partnership with Alejandro de Tomaso resulted in only the TC, a misadventure that wound up costing Chrysler close to $600 million . That is, the cost to produce each of the 7,300 TCs was about $80,000 in 1990 dollars. The TC s dash, door panels, seats, armrest, and rear facia panels were covered in hand-stitched Italian leather. Inside doorjambs were finished with stainless steel panels and sill plates. The convertible boot, over which the hardtop rests, is a body-colored metal panel. Standard equipment included a 10-speaker Infinity AM/FM cassette stereo, power windows, 6-way power seats, power door and trunk locks, map lights, puddle lamps, cruise control, and tilt steering wheel. This example is in close to new condition. With 42,000 miles plus everything is operating as it should. Doubt there would be one nicer anywhere in the world.
