Yes,
 
I have a 08, limited, with the new clearwater blue color, and hardtop, and love the car. When I compared to the volvo C70 and others, it was hands down the best value (I got it for 28K with close to a 39K sticker, so the value was great. Yes, it is a little cheaper as far as materials go, but I take great care of my cars, so it is working great. Grat mileage. Got about 28 mpg on a couple recent trips, and overall, always around 20 in city stop and go. It uses mid grade gas, and have not even attempted regular. Mileage is getting better with age. I have 14k on it now.
Only have had one problem. When I bought it, about 2 weeks into ownership, battery went dead. Took to dealer, and they replaced the battery, and no problem since. Transmission is a little loose during stop and go, but they say it operating fine.
 
It is a beautiful car, and for the price, its is the best value out there, plenty of front and rear room, and the trunk space, to up or down is really huge for a convertable. Get the Navigation with the U Connect. Great for hands free phone calls. This bluetooth should be standard in every car.
 
I say YES. Probably can get a great deal, with end of year coming, probably will see many discounts and rebates.
 
GO FOR IT

believe it or not, I found a rear right light on E-bay. The guy also just charged me, 60 dollars for the whole thing, My hubby put it in, and voila. It was fine. (and very inexpensive.)

Question about 1999 sebring convertible by convertiboy
Sep 13, 2009 (5:38 pm)

I am considering buying a 1999 Sebring Convertible JXI with all the goodies. The price is excellent based on Kelly. My two questions: Did the car come with a convertible "boot" to cover the top when down? I do not see any place to attach one but I am surprised it does not have one. 2nd, even thou the price is right, and it has never seen a winter, it has 145,000 miles on it. Am I asking for trouble or could there be lots of life left? Thanks!

What size engine? If it's the 2.7 V6, I would stay away from it.

Ah forgot to mention that. I believe it is the 2.5 V6- thanks for your swift response.

I've got a 98 that I bought in 2000 and I still love it. Came with a boot that has little tabs that slide into the back seat and some snaps (I think) around the sides. I don't use it because it's big and bulky (and heavy), plus the tabs don't stay in too well. I only have 80K miles - 145K sounds like a lot, but (knock on wood) I have had very few maintenance problems with it (just stuff wearing out like brakes, battery, headlights (EXPENSIVE), rear view mirror (EXPENSIVE - but you can find on eBay if you keep an eye out).

Over heating by topwand

I have an 08 with the small v6 and appox 32,000k a few months back it needed the water topped up. I than had a oil change so if the car needed water I'm sure they would have.
 Well I took it on a trip and it ran out of water and I mean ran out of water.
I took it in to the dealership .They pressure tested it and couldn't find a leak.
Can anyone shed some light on it for me ? Thanks.
 Also when it rains with the door opened it drips into the car sometimes onto the seat cushions.The dealership has replaced the rubbers but it didn't help much.Anyone else?

The overheating thing i have not had happen to me (2006 sebring conv.touring, V6 with 52k) and the rain dripping in on the seat with car door open, yes that happens on mine. I have some headaches with my car, and they are minor ones. Like the passenger side of convertible leaks onto seat with top down and doors closed. It's not much but still a pain. The Air Bag light and chime come on sometimes after car start and remain on. (but not the chime) Everything still works in it fine.

I have a 2002 and do not have that problem. There are different items that can cause this problem. First, a bad pressure cap. The cap is removed when the system is pressure checked and the measurement device takes its place.
The other common problems are usually on high mileage vehicles: intake hose collapsing, theromostat sticking, or head gasket leaking.
Did you burp the system when you topped it off?
It is still in warranty so keep taking it to the dealership. They will have to fix it by the third trip or replace the vehicle under the lemon law.
