Default Re: Sebring vs. "C" class

The C sport model does look sharp. Like the C class in my photo, it shares a few design elements with Sebring. They both have the teardrop-shaped headlights and creases running down the sides below the door handles. If you took out the Sebring's mid-body crease, the door panels would be identical.

For an example of the kind of Chrysler-hating I'm talking about, check out the top comment on this page:
The bottom two lines (the middle one being a body side molding) are okay. The problem is the third, upper-most belt-line crease. It’s not parallel to either the window sill or middle line and, combined with the oddly curved C-pillar, simply doesn’t mesh.


He complains that the upper crease isn't parallel to the windows. Well, it isn't parallel to the windows on the C class sport, either, yet nobody's screaming about what a design monstrosity that is.
