In a departure from previous midsize Chryslers (Sebring, 200 etc), Detroit Auto showgoers will be able to experience the 200 Super S, a heavily improved 200 that will be offered with two premium Mopar kits.

The first kit offers unique 18 inch wheels, numerous trim changes outside and a front spoiler. This seems to be an appropriate base for the Stage Two package, which offers a coil over suspension, cold air intake and a catback exhaust.

It is hard to say even on paper which cars the 200 Super S competes with, the first car that comes to mind is the Jetta GLI, though it is tricky at least to my mind to see anyone cross shopping between the two. Proper road testing and a few missing details should clear this up: the price and performance should make it more obvious when the package comes out later this year.
