For 1981, they were replaced by the smaller front-wheel-drive K-cars — the Dodge Aries and Plymouth Reliant — and the M-body Dodge Diplomat and Plymouth Gran Fury, which were very similar in structure, size, and engineering to the F-body Aspen and Volaré.
Впрочем, уже в конце 1970-х годов на базе F-body была создана очень похожая на неё платформа M-body, на основе которой выпускались автомобили под обозначениями Dodge Diplomat, Chrysler LeBaron, Plymouth Grand Fury, Chrysler New Yorker и Chrysler Fifth Avenue.
