Hi,

I was a bit disappointed when they stopped making Neons but I have a feeling they
were almost going to continue making them. I found a concept sketch of what a new
Neon would look like and I know if they made them like they look in the sketch then I'd buy one in ared hot second!

Here's the concept sketch I found.

Put a trunk on the back and you have my vote. It looks agressive and I like that look.

Kinda looks like what the Avenger became to be honest..... not 100%, but close enough for comparison...

Yeh mat00es is right. all of the dodges these days has that same old cross plus signfront bumper design. Like N30N said, i think that it looks more like a charger and a magnum than a neon.

Hey thats there style that makes them reconizeable. You cant mistake a Dodge these days, unless you dont know about cars in the first place.

unless the caliber fails I'm pretty sure they won't bring the neon back. Btw, I say its an avenger/caliber. If there wasn't a caliber I would say magnum but it looks closer to the calibe IMO. Looks ugly too haha.

Soon all Dodge cars will look the same. They found a design and thedesign teamsat Dodge are scared to make the cars look any different. LOL. All they do is change the name and color.

Looks like a ****ing Caliber. Calibers are ugly as hell. The new Avenger isn't terribly good looking, but it's by no means horrid. However, the crosshair grill is overused.

i agree with everyone else. I think the neons have to have the circle shaped headlights. I look at neons this way, kinda like DTJ, they look sweet and innocent in stock form, but have the potential to look mean and agressive

Guys, the Caliber came from that concept sketch. Make it a hatch and square it and BOOM. Caliber.

yeah that looks ALOT like a caliber man. f@#kin ugly car. shouldve kept the neon, just upgraded the es and sxt to the dohc 2.4 and kept the srt as it was with the dohc 2.4 turbo. just my opinion.

i am actually glad they quit makin the neon...just lookin at what it wouldve looked like makes me sick, i like the way they made them and it would have been just disgusting to look at a 2006+ neon drive down road looking like that...just my opinion

Kinda like ford's truck grill for the ranger, super duty, heavy duty, etc...

I like the crosshair grilles, b/c it makes the brand distinct (like the BMW split grilles)

i agree it looks like the caliber/magnum

the biggest problem the 2nd genneon had was the high rear end

I liked the Neons (we have a 97... it's seen better days but it's still the oldest car we have, being pretty reliable)
we even had one of the last neon years' models as a loaner once... i liked it, Silver SXT

I have a feeling that that sketch was more for the replacement than the neon...
