Best looking Chryslers?

Aston-Martins bland?

What about some of the Alfa Romeos?

Of course not, its a Wankel. Efficiency isn't the objective,
performance, light weight, and smoothness are. Wankels will never match
piston engine efficiencies, just because of the fact that the fuel/air
mix always has to sweep around the rotor chamber shedding precious heat
energy to the cooling system all the way, instead of sitting in one spot
and getting squeezed, burned, and expanded. Piston engines have gone
back to "undersquare" designs to minimize combustion chamber surface
area, the wankel effectively has a HUGE combustion chamber surface area
by comparison.

No, I agree they're anything but bland. But they, like the Viper, are a
very expensive niche vehicle.

Pretty nice, but give me an early '60s Alfa Duetto any day.

Crossfire Roadster
Always gets 2 looks, stunning car and pretty unique looking
