JMO of course, but I think that looks like a$$ compared to the rendering that was making the rounds....

I looked at both pics side by side and it looks REALLY close to me. I like it. I hope it's a hit for Dodge.

yeah, that's what I was thinking also.

I wish the same person would have gotten a look at the RWD Impala design...

There's a lot of similarities. Of course, the rendering has a much more aggressive stance and more attractive wheels. That is probably what makes it look more lean and athletic compared to the real-deal.

I like it ok, but I much prefer the Jeep.

Twin???? I thought the Magnum (Durango) had a 3rd row and was bigger. I know both are built on a Mercedes platform.

The rendering is spot on, except with different wheels. I think this SUV look great.

Give it some HP and
Our Caravan is at 107K, if this comes with 3rd row we may have found our replacement when it is time. I wonder if there will be a SRT version?

its not just similar you overlap them and its a dead ringer. Just not with the chrome and good paint.

I like it they did well in giving it the Dodge look. I like the Grand Cherokee too.

The rendering does look better but that's because it's set up like an SRT model and not the base looking one in the picture. If the pictured Magnum had big Viper style wheels, chrome grille and some accents it would look very close.
