That’s a great answer below. My reason goes way back to 1962. My Dad had a big lime green ’58 Fleetwood 62 Series Sedan. During the summer of 1962 the triple carb gave trouble and backfired burning it to the ground while on vacation. My Dad made a promise to never own another Cadillac and he hated Fords so enter a new ’62 Imperial Crown in Rosewood. That car lead to his next car a ’69 Blue Crown leaving me to drive the old ’62 Imperial and it hooked me into appreciation of what a fine car Chrysler was building back then. His 3rd and last Chrysler car was a ’76 New Yorker because there was no Imperial that year. Personally I find all 3 to be great cars of the late 50’s to late 60’s and would be happy to have most any of them during that 10 year span.

it's the quality, looks and comfort of an Imperial. Take for example the one I own, a 74 Imperial. Caddy and Lincoln did not have 4 wheel disc brakes, Imperial did. They didn't have a metal grille, Imperial did, and they coulden't match the leather seats Imperial had. Plus through the years, Imperial always had a better looking body style. Most important though is quality, Mopar is always a better choice than GM or Ford.
