2012 Chrysler 200 S Convertible Review - Video by Voxel Group - Garage TV - Sebastian Benzoni
Review by Sebastian Benzoni
The 2012 Chrysler 200 offers much to like for buyers interested in a stylish, economical, and inexpensive mid-size sedan. Things like a 283-hp V6, a true 4-seat convertible, and still inexpensive prices mean that power- and luxury-seekers on a budget can have theirs, too.
2012 Chrysler 200 Drive and Review
( http://www.TFLcar.com ) The 2012 Chrysler 200 competes in what is known in the car biz as the D segment. D segment cars are family sedans. This means that the Chrysler 200 swims in perhaps one of the most competitive pools with best selling sedans like the Toyota Camry, Nissan Altima, and Ford Fusion and the Honda Accord. So how does the new Chrysler 200 stack-up to these cars when it comes to style, comfort, performance and ride and handling. Check out his first drive review to find out.

The 2012 Chrysler 200 Limited is stylish with a comfortable ride. Lauren Fix, The Car Coach, takes a closer look.
Make / Model -- 2012 Chrysler 200 Limited.
MPG -- 20 city /31 hwy mpg.
Engine - 2.4L 4-cyl. or
3.6L V6 flex-fuel engine
Price -- starts at $21,370
The 2012 Chrysler 200 is available in four trim levels -- LX, Touring, Limited and S models. The Chrysler 200 drives down the road with poise. The suspension provides a comfortable, well-controlled ride and its handling is better than that of many other midsize sedans.
Performance with the 2.4-liter 4 cylinder engine is acceptable and adequate for most drivers. The 3.6-liter V6 is quite energetic. A more robust engine, it delivers strong acceleration without a tremendous sacrifice in fuel economy.

The 2012 Chrysler 200 Limited offers comfort and performance. It's a top safety pick that is also stylish.

What I have to say about the 2013 200: This car has some luxury touches to it, but even though Chrysler is a near luxury automaker it still falls behind from the competition. Cars like the Nissan Altima, Toyota Camry, Honda Accord have way more features available. Even though it lacks features, it all comes at a great value , my tester car came in at about $25,000 which it's fully loaded. The cars exterior styling also has a tasteful luxury taste to it with nice LED Tailamps. Fuel economy is also not that great compared to the competitors. If your looking for an American made car that has a luxury taste at a great value, then this is your car.

2011 Chrysler 200 Super S (2011 Detroit Auto Show)
Nestled into a well-hidden crevice on the outskirts of the Chrysler booth at the Detroit Auto Show is a Mopar-accessorized 200 Super S. That's right: a pimped 200. It would appear that Mopar noticed the 200 looks a bit... tall, so Team Pentastar's aftermarket arm dropped the 200's suspension a full three inches and outfitted it with a reworked lower chin and rear decklid spoilers. The 200 is further tweaked with a sublime quartet of glossy black 19-inch wheels, a pair of awkward hood vents, a mesh grille and foglamp bezels with light bar applique.
So... your neighbors still haven't noticed that you dropped thousands of dollars on aftermarket parts for your Chrysler 200? Mopar's design department has also re-sprayed the Super S with two-tone tungsten on matte black paint. Unfortunately the thin pinstriping on the showcar appears less than production ready.

2012 Chrysler 200S Convertible: 4 Guys In A Car Review
Did we like the 200S Convertible? Not really. That said, for those people who REALLY like it, we'd say you'd probably be happy with it. (You know, if you don't want a Mustang or Camaro convertible or lots of power or...)
It is one of the few four-place hard top convertibles on the market, and is genuinely usable all year round. That said, if you're expecting it to be a great car to drive or screwed together to a standard befitting its price...well...
