Default The Chrysler Sebring *use to be* a decent looking car

Then they go uglified it with that damn corporate grill:






I saw one of the sedan with the new grill today, it was all fukked up looking because the front license plate was placed in the middle of the grill. :ugh:

Welcome to last week...this has been a running change for sometime.

I don't mind it...in fact I think it looks more upscale and less rental-car like.

They look fine as is, but since most states require a front license plate, putting one there makes it looks like the license plate has a grill border around it. Why didn't Chrysler designers think this through? :ugh:

Anyways, I thought the pre-refreshed Sebring convertible was a sharp looking midsize convertible, better than the Solara, but the fat grill has made it ugly.

:huh: Am I the only one who sees RSX headlights (or at least a passing resemblance) in the redesign of the Sebring Coupe? :eh:
