  • Support No need to have sepearate pages for all a car's different body styles. This is confusing, it would make more sense to add them all into one article and seperate entries for the different styles like in most other car pages. Ejfetters 04:50, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong Oppose The Chrysler Sebring article was a giant mess flooded with infoboxes until I split them up and amde the article managible. Karrmann 12:35, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose The article split the way it is now is clearer. The Sebring is an unusual case in that the body styles are not mechanically similar (the sedan is identical to the Dodge Stratus, the convertible is based on but not identical to the Stratus and has different styling (especially in thie first generation) and the coupe is a Mitsubishi Eclipse). Trying to cram all this information plus images of the different versions into one article made a muddled mess. IFCAR 00:30, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose per IFCAR. --Interiot 12:29, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Karmann, if your reason is cuz the article was a mess before, why don't you and I work together and rewrite the article and make it make sense? I think together we could make it all look better, cuz really I understand why you say to split them, but, the flow of all them need some work I think. What do ya say?

Still EJ, it is like IFCAR said, the only thing that they share is the badge on the fender. The coupe is built by Diamond Star motors, the convertible is a lone model from Chrysler, and the sedan is a rebadged Dodge Stratus. The three models don't share any componets, hence, why they don't belong in the same article. Karrmann 12:00, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Why does this article say that the Sebring convertible line is "a dying breed"? VW has just introduced the competitive hardtop convertible Eos, and Pontiac has introduced the G6 hardtop convertible, both at well below premium prices. This has forced Chrysler to introduce a hardtop model for 2008. So this statement seems entirely bogus to me, in view of the amount of competitive activity in the market sector.
