Spying: Chrysler 200, Now In Its Own Skin

Hopefully for their sake they've learned something from the poor first year of the Dart and this car wins more buyers.

BLOB

Gosh I hope they're wrong about what this is.

UGH, Another non inspirational Jelly Bean design.

Kind of an anonymous, anycar silhouette in the disguised form...will be interesting to see how it looks for real..

what's crazy is how Chrysler turned the Sebring and Avenger from lemons to lemonade and they sell like crazy now.

Reg, it's amazing how you are able to deduce a vehicle's exact shape behind heavy camouflage. I don't know why they even bother with spy photographers when they could just wheel your ass out to the proving grounds and the world will instantly know what it looks like through your x-ray eyes.

grow a pair. other people have opinions. deal with them or ignore them as you see fit. I have a hard time believing you would get your panties in a bunch about it if it were a Toyota I was critiquing. We all know you are a Mopar fanboi. You don't need to incessantly defend them like it was your girlfriend that just got beat up by an attacker.

It's more or less gonna be a rebadged Fiat, hope the front end is not as atrocious as the new Cherokee.

and I summed up a similar impression just by saying BLOB.

What exactly is the point of anyone even posting topics on vehicles in camouflage then? If we aren't expecting a reaction then don't even bother making the damn thread.

Chrysler has had a few hits and yes a few misses. I personally think though that the brand has gotten more popular and if they concentrate on what has worked they may get a clue as to what the public wants.

Oh please, nearly every single new car that's spied under heavy camouflage you make asinine assumptions based on what you think you see. Remember, the camouflage is there for a reason, and in case you forget what camouflage actually means, I'll help you.

camouflage [ˈkæməˌflɑːʒ]

The only things a reasonable person would deduce are that 1.) It has 4 wheels (holy balls!), 2.) It no longer has the crappy roof line the current 200 inherited from the terrible Sebring, and 3.) It appears to have a pretty long front overhang, but the thinking man will know that this last part can't be fully judged with all the camouflage on it.

to reiterate then,

If there is nothing to see that we are given the permission to have an opinion on, then what is the purpose of the thread, or even the whole spy photo industry?

At least on GMI, how many 2016 Chevy Cruze spy photos threads have there been lately? Yet at least it's not a crime to give an initial reaction.

How many damn ATS threads were there, CTS threads?

I still maintain that if you merely replace 'Chrysler 200' in this thread with 'toyota', I don't think you would have had gotten wound up about it.

I am going to keep an open mind about this blob. Until which time I choose to post an opinion about this blob.

It's still a camouflaged test mule so we really have no idea how the production version is going to look like.

I think if it's based of an Alfa Romeo then it should be very attractive as I quite like the styling of Alfas.

It should have a lot of pep too as the 3.2L V6 is no joke.
