NEW YORK AUTO SHOW: Dodge Demon makes its North American Debut
Dodge unveiled the Demon Roadster concept in Geneva but brought it to the United States for the first time ever at the 2007 New York Auto Show. Powered by a 2.4 liter engine that produces 172 horsepower with a six-speed manual transmission, the Dodge Demon Roadster has a rear-wheel drivetrain and a torque of 165 lb-ft.

Once in a full production version, and we hope that happens soon, the Dodge Demon will definitely give its American rivals, Ford’s Mazda MX-5 and GM’s Saturn Sky, a tough competition.

Ahem... AMG (Mercedes in general) interiors are FAR SUPERIOR to any Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep vehicle. Sitting in an S550, let alone driving one, is an experience unlike any other. The interior is beyond first-rate, with the highest-quality materials covering every surface. The wood trim is beautifully finished, the leather is buttery soft (even the headrests are fancier than "lesser" cars), the glow of the soft light under the wood is opulent, and even the COMAND system seems more expensive than iDrive or MMI. All in all, an insurmountable leap over the last S-Class. These superb features are expected to make their way, more or less, the rest of the MB lineup.

Another cheap Chrysler Group product.

Mercedes should really get rid of this Group. The quality and design are hitting rock bottom. I'm surprised they're still in business. It was a mistake to buy Chrysler in the late 90's. However this gave MB the ops to have some assembly in more parts of the US. It came with a huge price as we all know.

The only thing good about Chrysler is the Dodge Trucks .

It mercedes fault in the first place that Chrylser is where it is now. When Mercedes bought Chrysler they were in great shape with innovative products.

Yes, Mercedes has officially put the Chrysler Group up for sale... thank God! Now we can see them putting their money into new cars that are as great as the S-Class!

no1listensanyway, because you are Brainless and full of Bull**it.

Zetsche (CEO) turned Chrysler from losing money to profitable, producing the same amount of cars in 2005 as it did in 2000 with 35,000 less employees.

But since 2005, that's gone the other way, thanks the American Autoworker Union.

The only reason Chrysler isn't nearly bankrupt like Ford & GM, is because Mercedes is pulling their weight. And Chrysler has been in trouble before. Has Mercedes? Nope.

IN FACT, Mercedes is thinking about selling it off.

This isn't the Demon, nothing has been released about it yet other than its going to have more power than the 707HP Hellcat. It will most likely be a performance package for the Challenger like its Hellcat counterpart.
