Past? What does that have to do with anything? The new Dart looks nothing like the one you posted.

I just do not like Hyundai. You are correct, the new Dart looks like bland compare to the old school Mopars but I still prefer the Dodge name brand. I've had great luck with their products.

I never thought I would say I want a Hyundai either, but I want a Veloster!

I gotta admit Veloster has a cool body style compare to the other guy.

I would go with the veloster.Must be the turbo.base engine waaaayyyyyy too slow.
I have also heard that their vehicles are reliable.

only issue you may have is the backseat.The roofline slopes down, so anyone other than kids might be hitting their head on the roof in the backseat.


if you are considering chrysler/dodge how about the chrysler 200?

Not really a fan of the 200... it's a redone Seabring and I hated those.

See the Super Bee looks good with a more traditional front bumper

Same bumper as the SRT, just color coded...

Mostly because that isn't a "Dart". Retro isn't always good and I think the new Dart is a great looking car and they did well with the nostalgia name without the weight and square body of the original Dart. Way to go MOPAR!

Well appearantly Fenwick doesn't agree that not only Lexus is trending towards this same style of front bumper/grille design.
