It is just you. There are not in the same size category, nor do they share the same powertrains either.

Well, considering how detailed your post is, complete with pictures, specs, where they were manufactured...

EOS > Sebring

There isnt even a comparison, as the Eos is a much better overall car....and that enterior is great!

I certainly prefer the Sebring's styling over the Eos. The Eos has the bland, commuter-esque, poor-man's-Beamerlook of every other Volkswagen...save maybe the GTI which has, itself, a distinct sporty look to it. I must say though that the Eos' seats look pretty comfy/supportive.

First of all, I did not start the section. That is the responsibility of the person who starts it to at least provide a link.Why is it suddenly my responsibility to do this?I happen to have been busy and this was all I was able to contribute at that time.

Secondly, hereare links for both:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_Eos
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrysle...Convertible%29

Powertrains for the Eos:[*]2.0-liter, I4, 147 KW (200 hp) turbocharged gasoline engine, manual-6 gearbox[*]3.2-liter, V6, 184 KW (250 hp) gasoline engine, DSG-6 gearbox

Powertrainsfor the Sebring Convertible:
- 2.4L GEMA I4 173hp &166ft-lbs of tq 40TES 4-speed automatic
-2.7L EER V6 189hp & 190ft-lbs of tq 41TES 4-speed automatic.
-3.5L EGJ V6 235hp & 232ft-lbs of tq 62TE 6-speed automatic.

Neither the engines nor transmissions are related between the two brands. The platformbeing usedby VW is a VW design assembled in Palmela, Portugal, the one used in the Sebring is a Chrysler modified Mitsubishi platform assembled in Sterling Heights, Michigan.

Third, it is kind of difficult to have an offical comparison because the '08 Sebring has not been released yet; therefore, Edmunds, KBB, and other comparison sights do not have them to compare. Finding photos is also difficult. I use the info from allpar, people will throw a fit, that is why I explained the general info. If they are not the same size and don't have the same engines, they techincally can't be the same car.

JEeezz intrepid is a huge cry baby......Yes I posted this link....it was on my mind....i figured the majority of folks on this website has an internet connection and would just look it up. Yes i understand they are different cars...but they are very similar in looks...like say the c300 and the bentley. It was just a statement of reflection of my own personal view...so take the stick out of your a** and relax...after all...its just the net
