2011 Chrysler 200

Chrysler has released the first details about the 200 S sedan and convertible. Essentially a design package, the S models feature a unique grille, body-color mirrors, tinted headlights and exclusive 18-inch aluminum wheels. Chrysler has injected a dash of menace into the 200 convertible, and the result is the 2011 200 S droptop. It's not outright evil, since it still packs the same 283-horsepower 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine and the same suspension. However, the S version trends a bit toward the dark side thanks to a host of exterior changes designed to bring a dose of cool to Chrysler's rental lot standby. Naturally, if you prefer your cars with fixed roofs, Auburn Hills will be happy to sell you a 200 S sedan, as well.
The shined-up silver paintwork looks resplendent under the New York Auto Show lights. A Chrysler wing badge sits prominently in the mesh of the black grille, while the headlights also get the black background treatment. The dark theme continues on the S-badged 18-inch aluminum wheels and then winds its way into the cabin.

The front leather seats are heated and the driver can also warm up his or her hands on the heated steering wheel. The S logo is stitched into the headrests, along with a line of contrasting silver accent along the seams.
To spruce up the cabin, designers added a perforated leather steering wheel, heated leather seats, suede accents, and a 276-watt Boston Acoustic sound system.

Both cars are powered by a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine that develops 283 hp (211 kW / 287 PS) and 260 lb-ft (352 Nm) of torque.  It is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission which promises to deliver 29 mpg highway.
The 200 S convertible should hit your local dealer later this spring, and will arrive carrying an as-delivered price tag of $32,490, while the sedan rings up at 26,790.
