Dodge Caliber

With styling resembling Dodge’s truck family more than the Magnum with which it shares its wagon styling, the Caliber is a radical departure from the cute Neon it will replace. This front-driver will also launch Dodge in Europe as a maker of sporty, exciting cars. Europeans will putter their Calibers thanks to the 1.5-liter four-cylinder from the Smart ForFour or the 1.9-liter four from the Mercedes A-class, while motivation for the American Caliber will be a 2.0-liter four developed by the global engine alliance created by Chrysler, Mitsubishi, and Hyundai. Mitsubishi also developed the vehicle’s architecture, which the Caliber will share with the next-generation Lancer that is set to bow next year. We will have to wait until the Frankfurt show in September to see a production version. Expect sales to begin in 2006.

im not a huge fan of the neon but atleast it looks better than that!!!

I'm not a fan of Neons, or most new dodges for that matter.... but damn that thing is just hideous.. Looks like a Pontiac Aztec mated with a Dodge Magnum.
