Dodge wasn’t willing to let Chrysler have the ugliest sedan in the market:

Nothing is worse than the Maxx.

Here’s something Buffalo can be proud of, the Avenger was designed by a local from Orchard Park who’s now working at DCX!!!

Kidding aside, this is just another prime example of the higher ups at DCX killing off a good idea/design. A lot of my good friends are designers at DCX and on more occasions than I can count on five hands I’ve listened to the problems they went through during the development of these cars. I’ve seen their early concept sketches and am blown away at how wrong the final products turned out. Too bad because if the designers had more say in the direction of these cars we wouldn’t be complaining on the looks. It’s a big problem happening in Detroit right now and no doubt has been having an impact on sales…☹ .

even has a coke bottle kick-up.

I understand the comparison to Strati (plural of Stratus?) Forget the name, it’s a mid-sized sedan. I think it’s a ton better looking than the old Stratuses though.
