Do you think they will ever get tired of that same ugly grill on every single vehicle they make?

I see Pontiac in the rear lights and even some Mazda RX-8 in the passenger windows. This car is definitely confused.

I was hoping that if they brought back the Avenger name, they would make a kick **** small coupe... like the one before, but better.

Oh well...

A good illustration why one shouldn't design a small car along the same lines as a large one, just ends up looking awkward.

The Sebring actually looks better imo... but both still look like crap.

I just don't get why they aped the charger so much on this. It just makes no sence. I'd rather have seen that Avenger concept..the crazy crossover thing they had.
It may have been a bit on the ugly side but at least it was it's own thing

The Avenger just looks disproportioned, and the grill doesn't belong at all. Did they move it to RWD?

Yuck! Makes me want to "grab Dodge by the horns" and give whoever "styled" it and OK'd it a swift kick in the behind! Didn't they get the message that they messed up with the Charger? I think crashing the one in the commercial might have done something to Dr. Z.

why doesn't Dodge just throw a different name on some Chargers and make that their new car cause that basically looks like what they're trying to do here.
