Review written on 7/1932.
It is not everyday one gets to drive a new automobile. Typically you find your self stuck with the same vehicle for at least five years before you purchase another one. And with the rate of depreciation and the amount of time we spend in traffic, this makes finding the right vehicle all the more important. Philadelphia Motors believes their Liberty Bell may be the best Phaeton to enter the market. How does it compare other Phaeton such as the everyone else and Athletic? We'll find out in this month's Vehicle Review!

On my first track run in the Philadelphia Motors Liberty Bell suffered 2 cracked rips and a ruptured spleen. Not from wrecking it, but from the sheer raw power of this Phaeton. The Liberty Bell's 53 hp @ 3452RPMs 2240 cc Flat2 engine drives you into the seats while you accelerate with an impressive 29.268s 0 to 60 mph time and a top speed of 77 mph. The Liberty Bell is able to keep this speed all the way up to the the top speed of 77 mph. When we hooked it up to our test trailer the 65 lb-ft of torque was able to move 22 lbs. Which was very good for a its class. On the track testing the Philadelphia Motors Liberty Bell did have some slight issues. Of course it was not designed to be a track car. But as a Phaeton it should have better handling than it does. In most cases in the real world this shouldn't be any problem. But it is still sub-par at best. After my hospital visit, I came to the conclusion that this is the best Phaeton I've ever tested on the track. Buy IT NOW!!!

Looking at the interior we fell in love with the Philadelphia Motors Liberty Bell. The Liberty Bell has all the features you expect and more. The materials are soft, and the quality is good. Equally impressive was the comfortability of the seats. Philadelphia Motors did a great job.

Inside the Philadelphia Motors Liberty Bell it feels like they could add an extra row of seats. There is enough room to even lay down, which is amazing! The 34 cu-ft of cargo and passenger space ensures that you always have plenty of room to do whatever it is you need to do. And that makes us happy.

Serious effort goes into every Philadelphia Motors Liberty Bell 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 Liberty Bell is easily one of the most dependable vehicles ever made, it is excellently designed, excellently produced. And with just a little TLC will last forever and a decade.

When it came to fuel economy testing we tried to see how far we could go in the Philadelphia Motors Liberty Bell. Our goal was to run it out of fuel. We tried and we failed. Even when the Liberty Bell fuel gauge was below E, it kept going! Befuddled at this we asked Philadelphia Motors engineers how this is possible. They showed us their Motor Bunny fuel system, which just keeps going and going and going and going for an impressive 26.2 mpg. In one word, amazing.

While talking with engineers at Philadelphia Motors we found out that the Liberty Bell was designed to be nuclear bomb proof. While we don't really know if that is bluster, we do sort believe them. Specially when it ran through the concrete brick during crash testing without leaving a dent on the hood.

I was happy with the time I spent in the Philadelphia Motors Liberty Bell. This car is truly magnificent. I think future generations will look back at this vehicle and think, "I wish I owned one of these." It is absolutely one of the best Phaeton you can buy. An instant classic that others in the segment will be compared to. I wish I could spend more time with the Liberty Bell but it is time for them to take it away. I believe I might go buy one myself.
