2013 Dodge Dart in the flesh!

[corsvette]

ChryCo needed a new small car, here it is. I like the rear and interior so far. Car comes with a host of Fiat designed engines including a turbo. With Dodge's usual low price we should see lots of these on the road.

It remindes me of something, has a familiar look, i was thinking a bit of Mitsu Lancer in the front. You're right about the Forte, definately looks similar.

Not a fan.



Looks like a pontiac g5 with charger taillights in the second pic

EDIT:

Fixed this from: so this is a rebadged neon basically then.

to

So this is the REPLACEMENT for the neon then in order to keep speedog and his friend happy.

[speedog]

Don't believe that there's any Neon ancestry in this new car at all - see more info here.

Looks like they took a first gen mazda3 body, put new jetta headlights and charger taillights. Not feeling it. And it in no way reminds me of a Dodge Dart.

[speedog]

The Dodge Dart I remember from back when I first started driving.

Stupid name for a not-bad-looking car.

Whats next, a Chevrolet Chevette? Dodge Omni?

This, similar body style, just updated. Not a fan at all, especially the charger lights.

believe me, a lot of A-body guys aren't happy with the new Fiat Dart lol.

[A790]

I like it!

[kvg]

Looks way cooler than a neon and it has a cooler name too

[schocker]

I also like it. Looks good, great interior and many engine options. Should do a tad better than the caliber

Still not as bad as the bastardization of the Charger.

[Hot_Wheelz]

My first thought was a VW sirocco or whatever.

they'll be better with that when they bring out the 590hp version later on.

Not bad. Unfortunately buyers of this segment only like boring, ugly cars from last decade like Civic and Corolla.

Oh?

You better inform Dodge of that, as they are clearly marketing this car to a different audience... if you haven't heard, Travis Pastrana and Samuel Hubbinette are competing in awd 600hp versions of these in the Global Rallycross championship
