The Chrysler Sebring Coupe was a mid-size coupe made by Mitsubishi Motors for the Chrysler Corporation and later DaimlerChrysler. While it carried the Sebring name, it shared no components with the Sebring sedan and convertible. Sebring Coupe production ended in 2005, due to slumping sales.

[edit] First generation (1995-2000)
The 1995 through 2000 Chrysler Sebring and Dodge Avenger coupes were the successors to the Chrysler LeBaron coupe and Dodge Daytona, respectively. The name Avenger was originally used on the Hillman Avenger, produced by Rootes Group while that company was owned by Chrysler Corporation; the name Sebring was originally used on a model of the Plymouth Satellite.
[edit] Second generation (2000-2005)
The second generation Chrysler Sebring was actually the name of two different cars. The coupe was the next generation model (also sold as the Dodge Stratus Coupe). The sedan and convertible were Chrysler JR platform successors to the Chrysler Cirrus as well as the Plymouth Breeze. The Sebring coupe was discontinued after 2005.
