I drove a used Dart 6 speed manual turbo today, I was neither impressed or disappointed. It drove nice and felt like an eco turd until you got into the turbo then it was a little impressive, overall not bad. I totally get what your saying satman, while I was there I looked at the 200's and they where actually cheaper with the rebates. When it comes to the new cars I'm Chrysler all the way, I love the 300's, our Aspen (5.7 gas guzzler), 200's, they are just really nice cars. My brother has a 300 and so does his father inlaw, really nice. It's my wifes call but I've never liked small cars, if it where up to me I'd buy the 200. I would much rather buy a totaled 200 if I could find one but totals are getting pricey as well. Right now we are spending around 600.00 a month on gas "that's ridiculous" I think a Dart would probably pay for itself. I can't accurately figure the savings because where I live there isn't much flat ground around hear and the mileage estimates are always way off because of the hills (our Aspen gets around 14-15 mpg, when we go to the outer banks it will get as high as 17 mpg if that gives you a clue). I get what your saying Pabster but when looking for mileage it's hard to beat not to mention the fact that I won't own a foreign vehicle and haven't liked anything Gov Motors has made for years (probably 1967) and Ford Focus's are ugly as hell, although the fact they didn't steal from me almost makes me want to buy one. We'll see but 600.00 a month has to change.
