Caught off guard by new Dodge Sebring Coupe...

I was walking through my school parking lot and someone in a new Sebring Coupe pulled up. When I first saw it, I thought it was one of those CLK 500's (the newer MB coupe, kind of small but low slung-is this the model?)

Anyway, I had to double take because something was off and I realized it was a Dodge. Even the headlights and front fascia looked MB.

Anyone else seen one of these? I must admit, it looked pretty good. Not my taste necessarily, but it was a sharp looking car. It was black, which helped I think.

I hope you mean you were walking through the bar parking lot drunk, that's a hard mistake to make

Actually I was probably drunk and milling around the campus between classes.

I still stand by my position-there were some similarities, but I have only seen one or two of the MBs I'm referring to, so who knows.

Hmmm...

no way...and if the recent marriage hasn't injected some MBZ quality and durability into Chrysler products, the Sebring will be worn out at 60,000 miles - just about the time the poor owner is finished paying for it. Not even to mention the historic, notoriously low resale value of Chrysler products. Beauty (although I really don't care for the Sebring's looks) is only "skin deep".

You may have MB fever. You walk around seeing MB everywhere you go? Might wanna see a doctor about this.
