1976 Plymouth Volare Reviews, Pricing & Specs













What owners say
"Overall, owners have mixed feelings about the 1976 Plymouth Volare. While some appreciated its unique style and robust engine, others criticized its reliability and poor design. Many liked the fun factor and nostalgia it offered, especially as a classic car, but many also mentioned safety issues and bad gas mileage as significant drawbacks."
One of the best cars I ever owned. Two tone brown ‘76 Volare’ with 225 slant six engine that wanted to live forever, coupled with a manual 3 speed transmission with overdrive and floor shifter made this little darling a pleasure to drive. Rode like a dream and never had a bit of mechanical problems with her. I wish I would have never sold it. I really miss that car.
July 30, 2023This car was amazing, it was the slowest car I ever owned, but would recommend it to anyone who likes to turn heads whilst they drive. This car would eat gas like no tomorrow, but it was solid as a rock, looked amazing, and would treat you right no matter how much you beat it. Overall one of the best cars I've owned.

June 25, 2009An appallingly bad car. Put together by disaffected union workers from a bad design - ours had the gas flap upside down (had to pry it up with a screwdriver to fill the tank), a Coke can rattling around inside the driver's door, a crappy transmission, and a carburetor that appeared to have been designed for a different make of car, so that the engine would flood and stall if you cornered too sharply or too fast. The only positive thing about the car was the great straight-6 engine, but since the carburetor had to be 'detuned' to keep it running, a lot of the engine's positives disappeared. The wildest moment I had in it was when a brake line went and I lost my brakes in rush-hour traffic at 40 mph. No fatalities, but a lot of excitement. Ugly, handled poorly, and got bad gas mileage.
July 23, 2010This was my winter beater to go along with the 300ZX. Pretty much the worst car ever made, but it only cost me $350 and it lasted me 2 or 3 winters. This car was fun to abuse and pile a bunch of people into...as long as you could forget the fact that everyone's life was in mortal danger.
July 20, 2008Again another burrowed pic, the year is wrong its a 1974 Volare. The one my parents bought for me was the 70's lovely olive green no vinyl top. This was my first ever car, didn't make it to the road tho. The previous owners neglected to mention the torn frame rail under the drivers seat. Did drive it for a month on my trip permit. LOL
