Dodge released their Demon concept on the world in 2007, and Mopar fans are frothing at the mouth. This near-production version of the Demon was built for just that purpose: to be as close to a production car as they could get it.
Fully functional windows, convertible top, engine, transmission, (and basically everything else) allow you to propel this 2-seater up to a solid 115mph. Most concepts never make it over 25mph, and even at that speed you fear for your life.
The Demon utilizes Chrysler's 2.4L 4cyl "World" engine, a six-speed transmission, and RWD for the drivetrain. All of the DT components can be found on current production cars all through the Chrysler lineup.
Chrysler hasn't released any plans for production, yet. Mopar fans are begging for this to be built. It's been a very long time since Chrysler has built an affordable 2-seat convertible. Target price is around $20,000.
In my opinion, this could do for Chrysler what the Miata did for Mazda, which is kept them alive during times of economic hardship.
If this is the car on the road to hell, save me a seat! Preferrably driver's. :)
