ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)
------------------------------------------


                          PREMIER AUTO TRUST 1998-2
                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
---------------------------------------------------

Basis of Accounting

The financial statements of Premier Auto Trust 1998-2 (the "Trust") are
prepared on the basis of cash receipts and disbursements, which is a
comprehensive basis of accounting other than generally accepted accounting
principles. The primary difference from the accrual basis to this basis is
that the financial statements do not record accrued interest receivable on
the Receivables or accrued interest payable on the Notes from the most recent
Distribution Date to the balance sheet date.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Short-term instruments with a maturity of less than three months when
purchased are considered to be cash equivalents. The Trust received certain
cash deposits from Chrysler Financial Corporation ("CFC") which are held as
liquidity and credit enhancement reserves and invested in short-term
instruments. Under the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the servicer is required
to convey principal and interest collections to the Trust within two business
days after their receipt. The Trust invests these collections in short-term
instruments pending distribution. If CFC maintains a short-term rating of at
least A-1 by Standard & Poor's and P-1 by Moody's, the servicer may convey
the principal and interest collections to the Trust on a monthly basis. In
May 1998, CFC met the rating requirements and the servicer began to convey
collections to the Trust on a monthly basis.

Amounts Held for Future Distribution

Amounts held for future distribution represent certain short-term investments
held for future distributions to Noteholders, and for liquidity and credit
enhancement reserves. Amounts held for liquidity and credit enhancement
reserves which are not utilized for future distributions to Noteholders will
be distributed to Premier Receivables L.L.C. ("Premier L.L.C.").


NOTE 2 - RELATED PARTIES
------------------------

Premier L.L.C. is a limited liability company controlled by CFC. On May 7,
1998, CFC's parent, Chrysler Corporation ("Chrysler"), Daimler-Benz
Aktiengesellschaft ("Daimler") and DaimlerChrysler Aktiengesellschaft
("DaimlerChrysler") entered into a Business Combination Agreement providing
for (i) the merger of a newly created Delaware corporation with and into
Chrysler ("the Chrysler Merger"); (ii) an offer by DaimlerChrysler to
exchange DaimlerChrysler ordinary shares for Daimler ordinary shares; and
(iii) the merger of Daimler with and into DaimlerChrysler. In the Chrysler
Merger, each share of outstanding Chrysler common stock will be converted
into the right to receive DaimlerChrysler shares. As a result of these
transactions, DaimlerChrysler will be owned by the former shareholders of
Chrysler and Daimler, and Chrysler will be a wholly owned subsidiary of
DaimlerChrysler. Both Chrysler's and Daimler's shareholders voted to approve
the proposed Business Combination at separate Special Shareholders' Meetings
held on September 18, 1998. The initial period for the exchange of Daimler
shares for DaimlerChrysler shares occurs from September 24, 1998 through
October 23, 1998.

                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 3 - SALE OF ASSET BACKED NOTES
-----------------------------------

The Trust was formed under the laws of Delaware pursuant to an Amended and
Restated Trust Agreement dated as of March 1, 1998, among Premier L.L.C.,
CFC, and Chase Manhattan Bank Delaware, acting thereunder not in its
individual capacity but solely as trustee of the Trust.

On March 30, 1998, the Trust issued $200,000,000 aggregate principal amount
of 5.6075% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-1 (the "Class A-1 Notes"),
$330,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.76% Asset Backed Notes, Class
A-2 (the "Class A-2 Notes"), $250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.77%
Asset Backed Notes, Class A-3 (the "Class A-3 Notes"), and $230,625,000
aggregate principal amount of 5.82% Asset Backed Notes, Class A-4 (the "Class
A-4 Notes" and, together with the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes and
the Class A-3 Notes, the "Class A Notes"). The Trust also issued $39,375,000
aggregate principal amount of 6.06% Asset Backed Notes, Class B (the "Class B
Notes" and, together with the Class A Notes, the "Notes"). The Notes were
issued pursuant to an Indenture dated as of March 1, 1998, between the Trust
and The Bank of New York, as Indenture Trustee. The assets of the Trust
include a pool of motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts
("Receivables"), secured by security interests in the motor vehicles financed
thereby and including certain monies due or received thereunder on or after
March 18, 1998, transferred to the Trust by CFC on March 30, 1998. The Notes
are secured by the assets of the Trust pursuant to the Indenture.


NOTE 4 - PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST PAYMENTS
----------------------------------------

Interest on the Notes will accrue at the respective fixed per annum interest
rates specified above. Interest on the Notes will generally be payable on the
sixth day of each month or, if any such day is not a Business Day, on the
next succeeding Business Day (each, a "Distribution Date"), commencing April,
6, 1998. Principal of the Notes will be payable on each Distribution Date to
the extent described in the Prospectus Supplement dated March 24, 1998, and
the Prospectus dated September 10, 1997 (collectively, the "Prospectus");
however, no principal payments will be made (i) on the Class A-2 Notes until
the Class A-1 Notes have been paid in full, (ii) on the Class A-3 Notes until
the Class A-2 Notes have been paid in full, (iii) on the Class A-4 Notes
until the Class A-3 Notes have been paid in full or (iv) on the Class B Notes
until the Class A-4 Notes have been paid in full. Each class of the Notes
will be payable in full on the applicable final scheduled Distribution Date
as set forth in the Prospectus. However, payment in full of a class of Notes
could occur earlier than such dates as described in the Prospectus. In
addition, the Class A-4 Notes and Class B Notes will be subject to redemption
in whole, but not in part, on any Distribution Date on which the servicer
exercises its option to purchase the Receivables. The servicer may purchase
the Receivables when the aggregate principal balance of the Receivables shall
have declined to 10% or less of the initial aggregate principal balance of
the Receivables purchased by the Trust.

                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 5 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
-----------------------------

In the opinion of outside legal counsel, for federal income tax purposes, the
Notes will be characterized as debt, and the Trust will not be characterized
as an association (or a publicly traded partnership) taxable as a
corporation.

NOTE 6 - RECENT EVENTS
----------------------

CFC plans to convert from a corporation to a limited liability company
("LLC") on or about October 25, 1998. Conversion to an LLC will have no
effect on the day-to-day operations of the servicer. The new LLC will be the
surviving legal entity of a merger between Chrysler Financial Company L.L.C.,
a newly created Michigan limited liability company, and Chrysler Financial
Corporation. Chrysler Corporation, which currently owns all of the capital
stock of Chrysler Financial Corporation, will be the sole member (owner) of
Chrysler Financial Company L.L.C. Upon the merger, Chrysler Financial Company
L.L.C. will succeed to the operations of Chrysler Financial Corporation and
will acquire its assets and assume its debt and other obligations.
