Review written on 6/1947.
We have eagerly awaited the arrival of the Philadelphia Motors Senator. The day has finally come. We're looking forward to taking this Luxury Sedan out for a drive. After our recent reviews of the Clover, any test drive to make us forget it is welcomed! The real question bouncing around the office is if the Senator is better than the everyone else. You'll have to read to find out.

The day started right when I was picked to drive the Philadelphia Motors Senator on the track. The Senator is a is pretty fast for a Luxury Sedan. Its 101 hp @ 3100RPMs 4288 cc Flat6 engine response great and is the perfect size and power for this vehicle. It left a smile on my face when I was able to top it out at 90 mph. And then on the drag strip I was able to crank out a 24.697s 0 to 60 mph. Some may have their doubts, but the Philadelphia Motors Senator is a fantastic track Luxury Sedan. When it comes to handling, the Luxury Sedan segment has very few models that are better than the Philadelphia Motors Senator. While it's no race car, this vehicle offers above average cornering abilities that will leave a smile on your face.

While the Philadelphia Motors Senator won't win any awards, It won't turn heads, and it certainly doesn't have a wow factor. The Senator does have a very well design interior. It may not be top end, but it is more than enough for long trips and everyday drivers. It makes you feel good about life. Without feeling pompous.

The Philadelphia Motors Senator gives you a sense of home away from home. With 39 cu-ft of cargo and passenger space the Senator feels like a second living room. Which was what Philadelphia Motors was probably thinking when they made this vehicle. "Lets make a vehicle that people could live in." Well Philadelphia Motors thank you, because after my wife threw me out, this is my new home. And let me tell you, it rocks!

Serious effort goes into every Philadelphia Motors Senator produced. The build quality of these vehicles is amazing! We could not find a single flaw in its construction while we were testing it. Everything fits properly, nothing is misaligned or misplaced. All of us here at GCM commend Philadelphia Motors in their efforts when it comes to the production of this vehicle.

The Philadelphia Motors Senator is a reliable car that we would trust our dear old grandmother with. These things are almost bulletproof.

The Philadelphia Motors Senator's fuel economy is impressive, but not in a good way. The Senator's 15.0 mpg is one of the worst in class. This might not be troublesome when you look at the numbers, but it will be when you actually have to pay for it.

In some sense the Philadelphia Motors Senator reminds us of an over protective parent. One that wraps you in damage proof forcefield that prevents all interaction with the outside world. While the Senator isn't that safe. It is still quite comforting to know that nothing can hurt you.

When it comes down to it, the Philadelphia Motors Senator is one of the best Luxury Sedan on the market. For almost everyone on the looking for a Luxury Sedan, you won't find a much better vehicle than the Senator. It testing team was astonished by the results. We give it our total and complete recommendation.
