I'd Be More Impressed If They Threw In Mrs. Peel

Chrysler Group has announced a new version of its mid-sized sedan, the 2013 Dodge Avenger Blacktop, which is available in (besides the obvious black) red, tungsten, and silver. It includes such goodies as 18-inch Gloss Black aluminum wheels with Gloss Black center caps, Gloss Black front grille, dark-tinted headlamp bezels and a body-color rear spoiler. Being based on the premium SXT model means there is a host of other equipment not found on your typical rental-car Avenger. I'll say this much — it certainly looks menacing. You can read all about the whole Blacktop lineup here (including versions of the Charger and Challenger).
