The DT at the LA auto show looks nice. Those wheels belong on the SRT8 as well. However, they would look great on SUBLIME GREEN CHALLENGERS!

Had to throw in an AOL all caps comment…..

Yes we are passionate, because we couldn’t afford the snakeskin green viper, didn’t want a 4 door green charger, and were too young, too poor, and too clueless to buy an original sublime green challenger, or cuda back in the day.

Sublime green challenger is the only car on my radar, until Dodge makes a decision on production. 2011, too long a wait for me, I’ll spend my money on something else.

Irish Mike, coolmancool, Indyrider, yellow rt, and everyone else asking about specific colors:

Since when do you guys want Sublime Green? We had no idea!

Just kidding. First off, thanks very much for reading and for being so passionate about your Dodges and how they look. We do read (and appreciate) your comments and take them into consideration. Sublime has not been ruled out by any means — we still have new colors coming down the pike. We understand it can be frustrating waiting for new colors, but all we can say is we’re working on it, and please stay tuned…

Thanks for supporting Dodge!

Will we ever see a yellow Challenger or did they run out at the local PPG paint store?

The only bad thing on the Avenger is the front end. It just looks funny. The headlights cut into the fender at weird angles. Just put a Charger front end on it and it will sell like hot cakes.

Sorry but Allpar doesen’t sugar coat anything. The Avenger is a well built car that does what it’s supposed to do. It’s all about perseption. Thats why so many people buy Toyota’s.
They have for the most part a fleet of the most butt ugly cars and trucks that metal can be formed into yet because of a few know it all magazines that catagorize these cars as being the one’s to own there somehow moved into an environment above everything else. If there’s no audience for the Avenger it’s not because of the car itself. It’s because of poor marketing.

You have to stop reading trash like allpar. I’m sorry, but the Avenger lags behind its competition in basically every category. Consumer reports is hardly the only one making these claims. Depending on your tastes you may find the exterior to be a change of pace from other midsize sedans, but overall the car cannot compete.

I have not seen the 2010s yet, so they may have addressed the interior issues, but I can’t imagine anything else has been changed substantially. Outside of the people with mopar in their blood, rental car companies, or those who found one on firesale, there is just not an audience for this car. Even chrysler knows this, which is why they’re trying to get a replacement out there on a fiat platform asap.

My point being GM is offering a lot of options and colors. I hope dodge will do the same so I can order a sublime challenger.

GM can do all it wants. It will never make a pimple on the challenger’s posterior. That squaty simling look doesn’t do anything for me. As soon as Sublime is offered I’ll be down at my local Dodge dealer with my order in!!!
