Overall the interiors are the winners here, very nice big improvement over the old 300 series. I especially like the SRT8. Exterior, I personally think they lost something, it is more jellybean in shape and has lost that gotta have it feeling IMO. I hope I am wrong, but I think except for people who want an updated 300, they will not see the sales success as they did before cause this care just blends in with the rest of the average looking cars. They lost that edge that said this was the 300.

Original

Interesting, but I leave it for the ultra rich 1/10th of 1% that can afford to waste money on concepts. Nothing interesting for me to drive or want.

Nice looking, but over all not my cup of tea. I will surly pass on this and probably end up having to pick it out of my SUV tire tread.

The Granite LUV Truck would be perfect for here. I had a Series 5 76 Chevy Luv truck that my dad had bought new and in 84, I restored to factory new condition and then sold it for 4K in 86 when I went off to college. My dad had paid $1576 with tax for the truck. I wish I could have kept it as I loved that truck, but time for a new awesome mini truck and the Granite could fill the niche even though a v8 powered Ute would be cool also.

That is a sweet ride, they should add this small truck to the lineup.

Glad the tree huggers will have a nice looking auto they can buy, but it does nothing for me. I will pass.

Yes I do believe a man could be seen in it without being considered part of our wonderful rainbow crowd.

WOW Who ever pulled these uglies out of their arss should be fired.

Anyone know if they have a picture of the new SRT8 in Black Metallic or regular Black paint? I see they have this info posted on the jeep web site, but no other pictures. Can someone who knows how to photoshop do one in black as I would love to see how this looks in a pure black job. I think it might be one bad ass GC!

Interesting that the driving machine of the world is cheapening up their cars. Wonder if they took a page out of Americas how to go bankrupt play book for building cheap cars.

Sorry Chris, I totally disagree with you, this goes with Dodges love or hate it style. I think this is what they wanted was to provoke a memory in people. You might love it or hate it, but you will remember what just blew by you and kicked your sorry mustang in the butt. Over all I love the exterior and interior. Just hate the over all Hip / leg eating room of the floor shifter / plastic rectangle mess. I still do not understand why the automakers think everyone wants this compared to a shifter on the tree. I prefer that myself and have the hip / leg room open just like my 94 suburban. Over all a Home Run in my opinion for Jeep! Hah, it's fine if it works for you. So far almost every industry person I've talked to thinks its a mess. That said, it will still be faster than a Cayenne and that's kinda always been the goal of this car. (When did I buy a Mustang?) LOL , Sorry did not intend to imply you owned one. I was using it as an example. I do agree with you that this will kicks Cayenne's butt at a very nice price point.

Nice, never was a fan as the Bug has always been for small people. Clearly you can see in the black image the influence of Porsche as it looks like a bloated one. Nice car, but not for me. I hope the Bug Fans love it and wish them all the best.

I actually think you have missed the point. This is a halo car for Jeep that shows they can make muscle tuff rigs for the outdoors plus a city slick version that can eat up the pavement jungle plus still kick it in the outdoors. Jeep is doing the right thing. This is the poor mans version of a Porsche SUV.

We'll they are keeping the ford mantra of bigger is better for the grills so the car family now matches the truck family. Personally, I yawn over this car. It does not excite me, they continue with what I think is one of the worst trends ever, floor shifters that eat up hip and leg room. A reason I love my 94 suburban, plenty of hip and leg room with no center floor mounted shifter like all the new vehicles. They continue with the isolation of people in the front from each other with the cocoon look and feel. I understand some feel the floor shifter is more sporty, but you can give a floor shifter without all the extra plastic that eats up the hip and leg room and does not really offer any more storage other than small storage spaces. In the pictures you see the shifter and what looks like a cup holder next to it and then the rest of the valuable floor space is covered up with the rectangle of plastic. Over all, not impressed. Nice car that some will love, but not world class leading IMO.

If I could afford it, I would pick up a very beautiful black XLR V at my local caddy dealership. I also would like a GMC Terrain AWD with a 3.6DI V6 Twin Turgbo for some go fast fun.

Most of the developers on Macs (incl. myself sometimes) I know use Macs because of the pure UNIX goodness inside of OSX. They didn't pay attention to the old Macs, but embrace the newer ones as an alternative to a DIY Linux on a Windows laptop approach.. I like my Mac Book Pro and my Dell Studio XPS, but every other dev shop I've worked in over the last decade has used laptops (HP, Dell or Lenovo) running Win XP... having used Windows, various UNIX flavors (Solaris, HP-UX, Digital, several Linuxes) and Mac OSX over the years as development environments, I can see the pros and cons of each.. At that startup, the civilians (management, testers, support, etc) used Windows laptops, but the developers all used Macs..it wasn't even a web app but more of an infrastructure technology that was deployed on UNIX or Windows servers.. Sounds totally cool, the small company I am building a storage division in, my QA team uses all windows or linux multi monitor desktops, yet dev's all use mac's to work on the linux kernel of our storage appliance. So I totally understand where you come from on the Mac. Some can handle the change between setups and others cannot. What type of product what this that you worked on? Mine is a storage accelerator. you can see it at storage.dataram.com

Camino, I agree with you, I am totally surprise at what people will pay for a wrecked car. With the frame bent, it needs some major work done to get it back to drivability. Thanks for posting, always interesting to see what others do.

The Camaro comment on the cougar is too funny!!! Poor you having to work at a company of Toyota lovers with their rotten Mac's. Real companies know better than to use macs. I have yet to see mac users create any real products outside of Graphic Designs.

My work on cloud storage is very funky to say the least. All I can say is just double check to make sure where your storage really is located. You would be amazed how many companies send their data over seas not realizing that the country that has the cloud storage might not be the most secure country to the US.

1970's

Naw, Cause that would mean Google is an evil empire. I thought people only thought that of Microsoft! Skynet is pretty cool, just have to make sure we do not let it get free!

Philadelphia project? Probably version 2 reboot of that project.

WAY TOO FUNNY! Some people are just so stupid. That whole low rider thing is a joke and a kid trying to be a racer with a car that is clearly not in an area that he should have not done it in. What idiots.
