The first photo on this thread is just a photo chopped Crossfire made to look like a four door. But in 2003 Chrysler was showing a four door hardtop concept with strong Crossfire design elements. Fast forward to 2007 and the new Sebring and.... yikes ! What happened ??? All the good ideas seem to have been sabotaged by clumsy "design-by-committee" execution...
poor proportions, chunky graceless door frames, seams and cut-lines running at all angles spoiling all sense of continuity...Wow ! What a mess !

Chrysler was earning a reputation for turning concept cars into real production vehicles but between the Jeep Compass and the Chrysler Sebring...looks like the "A" team has left the building !
