Otherwise, aside from the number doors, what would separate this from a Dart?

It's too bad the market for smaller 2 door coupe type cars is few as these can be cool looking, nice performing and affordable sporty cars.

Dodge has Challenger as its legacy, pony car and of course a cool, kick ass car it is even in 305bhp V-6 form. Of course Challenger Hellcat is as one might say, "to die for." Dodge has Charger as it main sedan from V-6 to super charged V-8. Dodge has its Viper as it top halo car. It has Dart for its sub compact and affordable sedan and I really like the Dart. It has mini vans and SUV's but no say modern day incarnation of the then cool Daytona.
I often still miss my Shelby Z.
I would welcome a 2 door sporty coupe and return of the Daytona name plate. Base models could be the 2.4L Tigershark engine with 6 speed manual or 6 speed auto and front drive. As one moves up add a 3.6L V-6 to mid line models with 6 speed manual or 9 speed auto and the top model would be an AWD with 3.6L V-6 and again I'd want a 6 speed manual or 9 speed auto as a choice.
Chryco could make a Chrysler labeled model, Sebring.

Looks like a ten year old scion.

I thought it looked a bit Pontiac G6 coupe.
