    The dart is dead. They aren't making it anymore.

    Who knows. Maybe a joint production with another manufacturer. Maybe they bring over the fiat tipo and rebadge as a Dodge. They already sell it in Mexico as the Dodge neon. Good looking car too and it's an actual small car unlike the dart that was big and heavy.

    They had been looking at bring the dodge neon from Mexico http://www.dodge.com.mx/cotiza/?mode...FQwXgQodnUwGxA but trade issues may have killed it.

    Completely agreed. I like the looks and the size. I wonder what they'd use for a drivetrain in a US model, since Americans would see "95hp" and just walk away.

    1.4t. If they kept it around or under 2700lbs it would work great in it. As well as use a manual or regular automatic. No dual clutch. I've driven a 500 abarth manual and 124 spider automatic. Both ran pretty good. Dart made that engine look bad.

    I wish Dodge would offer an interesting 4cyl. vehicle! My wife is in need of one soon! Her 2004 SRT-4 has over 200K on it! It's been a great car!

    I actually think the little turbo Chevy spark is a good looking little hatch.

    You won't hear any complaints from me about Ford. My wife's Mazda3 has been a great little car, and that's got FoMoCo stamped all over it.

    You mean the Sonic? Not bad looking. It's strange that the 1.4T and the 1.8 N/A are the same peak horsepower. I'd love to know what the differences in driving dynamics are.

    No point in making cars that nobody is buying. Technically you can still get the journey with a 2.4l.

    Easily the slowest Mopar you can buy. They didn't even give it the 6 speed. It's still rocking the ole 41te.

    Re: Dodge Dart

    I probably would have bought a Dodge Dart SRT if they had ever made one. Nowadays Dodge wants to make halo cars, squeeze out any and all possible iterations of the aging Challenger, and pedestrian yawn machines.

    If I were in the market for a new sporty small car, I'd be looking at the Focus ST and drooling over the Focus RS.
