Trim levels: 1987-1995

The LeBaron convertible/coupé was available in a number of trim levels. For the first year, the LeBaron was available in Highline and Premium, typical Chrysler trims during the '80s. During production the number of trims grew until 1990, when six trim levels were available. After that, the number decreased to five in '92 and three for '93 until only one (Ed. Note: By this graph it would seem the 1995 year actually had two trims - GTC and LX) trim level remained for the last year of the Lebaron's production in 1995.
