i just saw this for the first time today. its hideous. Daimler is doin the same look for EVERY vehicle now. for a car that is replacing the Neon, this one looks far too big. It's about the same size as the Toyota/Pontiac Matrix/Vibe

ugly...

It looks like an SUV... a little one... Not a big fan of neons, but SRT-4s were cool and I'm sure a lot of people will be upset with this....

it's like a durango. eeeeeewwww. what's up with ugly cars these days? i mean, every single one out there is just butt ugly.

they messed up the charger horribly, now this. it does look to be in the matrix/vibe category. how ugly. they messed up the viper horribly... EEW.

"people are going crazy over" --sure, i'd like to see one person go crazy over this.

I think it looks allright, nothing to brag about though. To be honest, I like it better then the Neon or SRT4. Don't get me wrong, if I was 18 years old again and in college, I'm sure I'd love the SRT4, but this new car looks more "mature" in my opinon.

I don't get how it's the Neon replacement. It looks nothing like a Neon. I have to say though... what the f*ck is wrong with the back end?!

Nothing wrong the car per-se, but... that's NOT a damn car. That's a truck/SUV wannabe, Ã* la Mazda5. I don't get how this *car* is supposed to be the *replacement* for the Neon.
