ROFLMAO.
Yep, Another ugly car from Chrysler. What? did they fire the styling department?
Everything they put out lately has that same box look with a Dodge Ram grill. The Intrepids and Concordes were beautifully styled, (engineered like crap...like al Chryslers) but the new cars....ugh! The only car I have seen lately from Chrysler that looks any good is the new Challenger and that's only because they made it look like the original. I'm suprised they didn't try to stick a Dodge Ram grill on that too.

i don't think it looks too bad...it is just getting the Dodge look...i wonder if this is built off the Caliber platform as it looks very close to it in size...maybe it's just a Caliber Sedan
the avenger was a coupe before so switching to sedan with what look like rear suicide doors may not be a good idea...but who knows it might sell better than the 2 door version (the previous avenger was a piece of crap though)...i wonder if it has the Caliber drivetrain meaning 10 sec acceleration with the 2.4 liter engine and cvt transmission

I like it, I personally feel Chrysler is the only American company that makes good looking vehicles. I still would rather light myself on fire than own one, but still...

Can't agree with you about building good looking cars either. A few years ago, yes with the Intrepids, Sebrings and Concordes, but lately
300, looks like dodge Diplomat crashed head on into a RAm pick-up. Th pimps like it though.
Magnum, just a station wagon with a RAM front end
Charger, sedan version of Magnum
Caliber..same Dodge truck front end, rest of car is just plain F'ugly
As i mentioned, the only thing that looks like it might be nice is the upcoming Challenger

looks are subjective. dodge/chrylser has had a lot of success with the 300, charger, and magnum. so their styling is obviously appealing to someone. it makes sense for them to go with their big, bold attitude-driven design theme with this car, too. it might not work out, especially since this is supposed to be more of a plain old family sedan. the other cars mentioned have more of a niche market, so the weird styling actually works.
i don't think those are suicide doors, especially if this is going to replace the stratus. how would you open suicide doors with the handles at the back?

And wtf are you talking about rear suicide doors?
