Bring back retro!


Did any of you tell Chrysler that you want a car that looks like a bloated turtle? One of you must've, because it sure wasn't me. I refuse to believe that the geniuses who created the 300 would intentionally design a humpbacked barfpile like the new Sebring.


Even if you can't avoid making a bulbous sedan with an overbite (pretty common for family cars these days), there's no need to jumble it up with bizarre lines and creases. Look at the cuts and panels above the rear wheel: even a six-year-old wouldn't draw a car so fugly.

I guess Chrysler designers aren't geniuses. The 300 was a copy of old designs, and that's all they're good for. Sad.




By the way, here's the Ford Fusion, one of the best-looking family sedans for sale today:

Hang a set of antlers on the side window and you have yourself a bona fide fireplace mantle. Considering what the old sebring looked like I'm really not surprised by this heap-O-cheap. I pray they don't adopt any styling ques from the bath tub on wheels, that is the sebring convertbile. Think happy thoughts and the monster in my head will go away...
