So instead of a passenger airbag, if you crash you'll get pumped with 4 cans of Red Bull ?

For that matter, any dashtop stored-items could be dangerous in any car.
Look at this other car's...that pencil looks deadly.
In a front end collision, anything stored behind you could be just as dangerous.

Sweet! I'm glad they're bringing the Avenger back. I wish the Venom would have made production back in the 90's. It was sort of a cross between the Viper and the Stealth when they first came out.

Also, not to deter from the subject, but have you seen the '08 Nissan Altima coupe?
It's a bad image, but oh well:

The Question is can I stuff a 318 y block in it, if not than it's just more late model crap!
Re: New Dodge Avenger info released - SteveJobs - 01-09-2007
If one likes the style, there are/will be plenty to choose from....
They have a website for that, Blu.

Yeah, I remember the Venom, that WAS cool. I drove a '93 Stealth for 10 years; during that the Avenger came out in what, '96 or so...I thought it was a "sensible" version of the Stealth. Nice looking, I actually considered buying one.
This new one is nice enough, though I'm not a huge fan of "Honey, I shrunk the Charger." I do like the Tech package they are offering on it with 20gb in-dash, playlists, etc.
And I wish they were still partnered with Mitsu on some things. Most of all, I wish Mitsu would come out with a new 3000 to really stir the sports car pot! Same goes for Toyo with the Supra.

There will most likely be an SRT version of the Avenger...so 300 or more HP.
