Wheel-inspired style combines with rugged durability in the db grille. Polk Audio's db Series Polk Audio's entire db line of coaxial and component speakers has been redesigned and re-engineered with superior looks and even better sound. Polk has added three new sizes to cover a broader range of vehicle applications. And they've done all that at prices that make high performance affordable to everyone! The db Series works well in OEM factory systems, as well as with high-powered aftermarket head units and component power amps. The db Series delivers classic Polk Audio performance and durability like never before. This is how you turn up the style. The look is about more than performance. It's about making every detail count, from the wiring harness under the hood to the fit and finish of your loudspeaker installs. Even before you fire them up, the db Series delivers. ABS wheel-inspired grilles make a muscular statement about your entire audio system and say you're ready to unleash some real sound. Hidden wire channels give your system a clean, professional look. Now if you'd prefer to be more subtle about your audio system (although why would you?), db makes a comfortable stealth installation and will mount easily behind factory grilles. The db Series fits. Yes, it's just that simple. The last thing Polk wants is to sell you a great speaker that doesn't fit. Our new multi-hole mounting pattern and shallow-depth magnet design have created our highest vehicle application ratio for easy drop-in installations in just about any car on the road (and probably some that should have been taken off the road years ago). Tweeters in the component models can be flush & surface-swivel mounted using the supplied hardware. With db, we've made sure you have maximum install flexibility. High Efficiency Design It means less amplifier power is needed for more audio output. Meaning better sound and more volume using less power. The bottom line is db Loudspeakers will definitely blow you and your friends away, whether they're driven by aftermarket head units or factory installed electronics. Marine Certified Marine Certified means your db loudspeakers will perform reliably on the water as well as they do on land. So Polk attacked every db speaker with a series of punishing real world and accelerated weathering lab tests to see if they could take what some pretty nasty marine and automotive environments could dish out. Polk exposed dbs to hundreds of hours of salt fog, intense ultraviolet light and extreme temperatures from -40 degrees to 185 degrees F (-40 degrees to 85 degrees C). They performed as well after the tests as before (they didn't look so good). No wonder Correct Craft builds Polk Audio speakers into their award-winning Nautiques ski and wakeboarding boats, and Bullet uses Polk db speakers in their marine "tower" speaker enclosures.

Here are some more information for Dodge Avenger Stratus:
Power and Dependability
These are just two of the various positive terms associated with the Dodge brand. Far from being an overnight success, it took more or less a hundred years to establish the name of Dodge and propel it as one of the reputedly-resilient products of the automotive industry. The Dodge legacy can be perceived as a success story of two brilliant brothers who maximized their gift for machinery. It all began in the early 1900s, when John and Horace Dodge began their fruitful careers as bicycle manufacturers in their father’s shop in Michigan. But even with the success of the said business, they decided to jump industries to pursue a name in producing mechanical parts to a fledgling automotive world. And it didn’t take long for recognition to come, as John and Horace easily adapted their skills and talents to this new industry. Then, forging a partnership with Henry Ford under the Ford Motor Company, the two brothers agreed for a 10 percent profit share from the company in exchange for the application of all Dodge parts in the Ford car assembly. It was an alliance that lasted for twelve years, until John and Horace Dodge felt the time to again embark on another adventure; that is to build and design their very own automobiles.
The resulting Dodge Brothers Motor Vehicle company was a very successful venture in terms of stamping the Dodge brand with traits of value and dependability. Even when the said Dodge Company was bought by the Chrysler Corporation as part of its fleet of brands, the Dodge name has strongly retained its reputation for powerful and reliable cars. As can be seen throughout its history, Dodge has introduced a series of exemplary vehicle models that serves as a reminder of the legendary strength of the Dodge brand. Among its bestsellers are the Dodge Durango, Dakota, Avenger, Challenger, Viper, Stratus, and a long list of others. All of these Dodge models are comprised of high quality Dodge parts. There is the Dodge Catalytic Converter, Dodge Radiators, Dodge Fuel Tanks, Dodge Wheels, Dodge Window Regulators, Dodge Grilles, and a slew of other Dodge parts that are all marked with the superior performance that Dodge is well-known for.
Thus, when an auto part of a Dodge model reaches its maximum lifespan, it is definitely an investment to replace it with another authentic Dodge part. As with its history and reputation for value, it is without a doubt a valuable investment for the vehicle. Quality can never be questioned from a Dodge brand, as even before Dodge even shot to fame as a brand for durable and powerful cars, it started first as a producer of specially durable and powerful auto parts.

Has anyone seen the new 2007 Sebring?
Wow, I was just on the Chrysler website and I saw the pics for the 2007 Sebring.. and it just like blew me away.. I wasn't expecting them to be restyling them anytime soon. Does anyone like the new style? Does anyone know what kind of pricing will be on them? I also heard that Dodge is getting rid of the stratus and bringing back the Avenger.. 
Does anyone know any more information on either of these cars? I would really like to know.. thanks.
Here's the press release.
It's unclear if the platform is shared with the 300C (which is the previous generation Mercedes E-Class), but it's a safe bet.

http://automobilenews.blogspot.com
CHELSEA, Mich., June 22 - Chrysler is creating
inspiration in the common car, introducing the 2007 Chrysler Sebring. An
all- new mid-size sedan, Chrysler Sebring builds on the winning formula
begun with the award-winning Chrysler 300 in the large car segment, and
more recently, the all-new 2007 Dodge Caliber in the compact car segment.
This formula combines stunning design with interior craftsmanship,
high-levels of safety and reliability, exhilarating performance and
excellent fuel efficiency, all at a surprisingly affordable price. Sebring
also features many class-leading technologies not available in the mid-size
segment.
"The all-new 2007 Chrysler Sebring sustains the momentum started by the
blockbuster hit Chrysler 300 and continued with the Dodge Caliber," said
George Murphy, Senior Vice President - Global Marketing. "Just as the 300
redefined the large-car segment and signaled the return of the great
American car, Chrysler Sebring combines the levels of reliability and
durability that mid-size buyers demand with unexpected levels of style,
craftsmanship, technology and affordable performance."
The 2007 Chrysler Sebring appeals to buyers who appreciate style,
practicality, safety and value. Sebring's elegant and sophisticated design,
packaged with interior craftsmanship, exciting new technologies and class-
leading safety features, meets the needs of their busy lives.
The 2007 Chrysler Sebring will be available in U.S. dealerships in the
fourth quarter of 2006 and in global volume markets in the first half of
2007.
Strikingly Beautiful Design
Inspired by the 2003 Chrysler Airflite concept vehicle that was
revealed at the Geneva motor show, the all-new Chrysler Sebring's elegant
lines evoke the exterior styling features of the Chrysler vehicle, bringing
the Chrysler brand's expressive design attributes to the mid-size segment.
"Sleek and sophisticated, the Chrysler Sebring's overall surfacing and
details reflect the Chrysler brand's four attributes: expressive, refined,
athletic and passionate," said Trevor Creed, Senior Vice President -
Design. "Sebring's elegant styling provides a clear alternative to European
and Japanese competition."
From the front, the Chrysler Sebring sedan features the distinctive
face of the Chrysler brand, with the Chrysler signature grille, a uniquely
sculptured hood, large, distinctive quad headlamps and available fog lamps.
A long hood profile, chrome beltline molding and long roofline emulate
a five-door appearance. High-gloss blackouts on the B-pillars enhance the
length of the Sebring's greenhouse. Sculptured character lines running
along the body accentuate Sebring's athletic stance.
The expressive character of the vehicle continues at the rear where
Sebring's wide tail-lamps are integrated into both the rear quarters and
extend into the deck lid for visual impact. Rear fog lamps mounted in the
backup lamps maintain a uniform appearance between domestic and export
vehicles. Chrysler Sebring Limited models for the U.S. market add chrome-
tipped dual exhaust outlets to hint at the performance capability of the
optional 3.5-liter V6 engine.
World-class Craftsmanship
The elegance found in Sebring's exterior styling also runs through the
vehicle's interior, which features a modern, clean appearance with intense
focus on quality, detail and execution.
"Chrysler Sebring's interior takes a different direction from many of
the current mid-size sedans on the road. Its form is inspired by the
Chrysler uplifted winged badge motif and incorporates new and fresh
decorative elements," Creed added.
Sebring's finely crafted interior features soft surfaces, mechanical
grains and selective gloss levels on the interior surfaces.
From the driver's seat, Sebring's H-point is 2.54 inches (64.6 mm)
higher than the vehicle it replaces, giving drivers a command-of-the-road
seating position. Standard 60/40 fold-flat rear seats make room for more
gear, and an available fold-flat passenger seat creates a table-like
surface to enhance the versatility of Sebring's interior.
All Chrysler Sebring models feature a two-tone interior color theme of
dark and lighter shades of Pastel Slate Gray or Pastel Pebble Beige, which
provides a spacious and well-appointed look. The Chrysler Sebring Limited
model also features an exclusive two-tone Cream and Pebble Beige interior
with leather seats. The Chrysler Sebring Limited's available upscale accent
materials and finishes include Tortoise Shell, Satin Silver, Alloy Silver
and Chrome.
Purposeful Technology that Makes Life Easier and Safer
In addition to Sebring's upscale design and elegant use of materials,
this all-new sedan brings new levels of function and technology to the U.S.
mid- size car segment.
"Chrysler Sebring features a slew of new technologies not typically
found or expected in a mid-size car," said David Rooney, Director -
Chrysler Marketing and Global Communications. "These features make life
easier and safer for the driver and passengers, while making the overall
driving experience much more enjoyable for all."
The 2007 Chrysler Sebring features a cutting-edge Harmon/Kardon
information, entertainment and safety navigation audio system that raises
the bar on in-vehicle communications. This best-in-class next-generation
navigation radio features a 6.5-inch Thin Film Transistor (TFT) Display
with a touch-screen panel that can support 65,000 colors, providing a
three- dimensional appearance to graphics and animation, as well as
multiple font sizes and styles. The system follows voice-activated commands
and includes many new features for music, sound, movies and personalized
picture displays, including:
* A 20 gigabyte hard disc drive that includes Music Juke Box for
organizing music and pictures to the hard drive
* Universal Serial Bus (USB) provides both MP3 connectivity and
downloading of WMA, MP3 and JPEG files onto the hard drive
* GraceNotes database installed on the hard disk drive, which provides

Sebring also offers a unique combination of features not available on other
mid-size competitors, including:
* YES Essentials(R) stain-resistant, odor resistant, anti-static seat
fabric

Class-leading Safety Features
Chrysler Sebring offers class-leading safety, with a combination of
standard safety items not typically found in the mid-size-car segment,
including:
* Advanced multi-stage front air bags provide nearly instantaneous
occupant protection by matching air bag output to crash severity
* Standard side-curtain air bags deploy from the headliner to provide two

compatible cell phone and the vehicle's onboard receiver. The hands-
free option promotes safety, freedom, value and flexibility
Exhilarating Performance with Excellent Fuel Efficiency
Three engine options power the 2007 Chrysler Sebring sold in the United
States: the new 2.4-liter four-cylinder World Engine, a 2.7-liter V-6
engine and an available 3.5-liter V-6 engine coupled with a new six-speed
automatic transaxle with Auto Stick that provides 0-60 mph performance to
rival the best in the mid-size-car class.
Sebring's standard 2.4-liter World Engine with dual variable valve
timing (VVT) rivals all four-cylinder engines in the mid-size-car segment
with its combination of fuel economy and solid performance. Mated to a
four-speed automatic transaxle, this new engine provides a 13 percent
increase in horsepower (172 horsepower vs. 150 horsepower) and 4 percent
improvement in fuel economy compared with the 2.4-liter engine it replaces.
An available, enhanced 2.7-liter V-6 engine provides value- and
performance-conscious consumers the power of a V-6 engine with a price that
compares with the competitions' four-cylinder engines. Chrysler Sebring's
available 2.7-liter V-6 engine produces 190 horsepower and 190 lb.-ft. of
torque, providing more low-end torque (at an rpm 850 lower) compared with
the 2.7-liter engine it replaces.
Chrysler Sebring sedans sold in the United States are also available
with 3.5-liter V-6 engines that produce 235 horsepower and 232 lb.-ft. of
torque coupled with a new six-speed automatic transaxle that comes standard
with Auto Stick. The combination of the upgraded 3.5-liter V-6 engine and
six-speed automatic transaxle delivers excellent performance and fuel
efficiency, as well as quiet operation.
The 2007 Chrysler Sebring is one of the first Chrysler Group vehicles
to offer the new six-speed automatic transaxle, which provides quicker
standing- start acceleration than a four- or five-speed transaxle because
of its numerically higher first gear ratio. A more robust differential with
increased torque capacity enhances launch performance by requiring less
torque management, electronically limiting the torque that is available
during the initial stages of standing-start acceleration. Smaller steps
between ratios also make for a smoother, quieter ride, as the engine speed
doesn't change as often with each shift. In addition, more ratio choices,
more appropriate ratios for quicker acceleration and a lower overall top
gear ratio provide a quieter ride and improved fuel economy at highway
speeds.
"The all-new 2007 Chrysler Sebring's performance is extremely
competitive with the best in its class," said Larry Lyons, Vice President -
Front-wheel- drive Product Team. "Based on 0-60 mph acceleration tests, the
Sebring Limited's performance, with its new 3.5-liter V-6 engine and
six-speed automatic transaxle, rivals the leaders in the mid-size class."
For the first time in the mid-size car segment, the Chrysler Group also
will offer a state-of-the-art 2.0-liter turbo diesel engine on the Chrysler
Sebring for key diesel markets outside North America. The diesel engine
will deliver excellent performance and fuel economy, with an estimated 140
horsepower DIN (103 kW) and 236 lb.-ft. (320 N*m) of torque.
Elevating Expectations
In the United States, Chrysler Sebring is designed to appeal to 35-55-
year-old buyers who are married and have a median income of approximately
$65,000. Fifty-five percent are female, and 60 percent are college
educated. Many have small families with one or two children. These mid-size
car buyers are down-to-earth and conservative, yet open-minded,
self-confident and have a passion for life. Middle and upper-middle class,
their lives are active, and they have a true sense of style. Their self
image is grounded in their accomplishments and future prospects. Chrysler
Sebring's elegant and sophisticated design, packaged with interior
craftsmanship and essential levels of reliability, meets the needs of
customers who want more than just practicality in this competitive segment.
Chrysler Sebring Model Lineup
The 2007 Chrysler Sebring is available in the United States in three
models: Chrysler Sebring, Chrysler Sebring Touring and Chrysler Sebring
Limited.
2007 Chrysler Sebring Production
Production of the 2007 Chrysler Sebring begins in the third quarter of
2006 at the newly refurbished Sterling Heights Assembly Plant in Sterling
Heights, Mich. The new 2.4-liter four-cylinder World Engine for this
vehicle is built in the state-of-the art Global Engine Manufacturing
Assembly (GEMA) plant in Dundee, Mich. The 2.7-liter V-6 engine and the
3.5-liter V-6 engines are built at the Kenosha Engine Plant in Kenosha,
Wis.
Chrysler Brand
Driven by award-winning new models, the Chrysler brand has seen a
dramatic increase in sales, market share and brand image, culminating in
2005 calendar year sales of 649,293 units -- an all-time sales record.
Since 1990, Chrysler brand sales have jumped 251 percent. No other American
automotive brand has grown as much during the same time frame.
"The Chrysler brand's succession of innovative product introductions
continues to solidify the brand's standing as the leader in great design,
purposeful technology and value," said David Rooney, Director - Chrysler
Marketing and Global Communications. "With the launch of the all-new 2007
Chrysler Sebring sedan and the 2007 Chrysler Aspen -- the first-ever
full-size SUV for the brand -- the momentum is sure to continue," he added.
Global Engine Manufacturing Alliance (GEMA)
The World Engine is a family of world-class four-cylinder engines
produced by GEMA in Dundee, Mich., delivering an exceptional combination of
quality, fuel efficiency, refinement and performance. GEMA is owned equally
by DaimlerChrysler Corp., Mitsubishi Motors Corp. and Hyundai Motor
Company. By optimizing the three joint venture partners' strengths, global
economies of scale and the latest practices in flexible teams and machines,
GEMA aims to set a new benchmark in engine plant productivity.
