Sometimes we feel bad when cars get damaged or destroyed in ridiculous accidents. Take that ultra-sad Lamborghini Miura fire from a couple weeks ago, for example. But this Dodge Avenger falling into a Chicago sinkhole? I can't say I feel too bad here.
Remember that Dodge Avenger rally car from last week? Here's its streetable cousin, the 2012 Dodge Avenger R/T. The suspension? She is stiffer. Pentastar power? True. The transmission? Automatic. Please, talk amongst yourselves.
To tout its Mopar parts division, Chrysler and Fiat's parts arm Magneti Marelli built a Euro-spec rally car out of a Dodge Avenger, with 300 hp and powerslide-ready hand brakes. Will it ever actually race? Probably not.

Now, as the company struggles to stay afloat amid high gas…
Chrysler and Mitsubishi have been technological partners for years, providing platforms and engines for each other even after Daimler dropped Mitsubishi a few years ago (now Chrysler hearts Nissan). The most notable models in recent memory were the Mitsubishi 3000GT/Dodge Stealth duo and the Plymouth Laser/Eagle…
Nope, you're not seeing double — that's the same video we ran earlier. But jeez, we just had to. We mean, we leave the office for a few hours to catch opening day and we can't even get the one thing we wanted run right today to actually get run right.
