A revision/refresh does not make a new car. Based on what you are saying, a 2011 mustang gt isnt really a mustang gt since its so different from a 2010 (engine, transmission, suspension, etc.). I wasn' t trying to slam Chrysler or the 200, just pointing out that they renamed the sebring.

Also, at the end of that article it says the 200 was originally a hybrid concept based on the 300.
But an 11 GT looks exactly like a 10 GT. The 200 shares only the roof with a Sebring so the name change is fine and the car is like a totally different vehicle from a Sebring to drive. Yes, basically they did, but there were enough differences it is not like when Ford put a different grill on the 500 and a new engine with no other changes and called it the Taurus.
